We have this and I love it!! One of the biggest play mats available and My DD LOVES all the bright colors and sounds it makes! Great deal! All washable toys too.

With all the new woot! areas, why not baby.woot.com - that's all we have here anymore. Or how about geektoys.woot.com (ie. direct competition with ThinkGeek type items).

I usually have a lot more future stocking stuffers kids.woot by this time of year but lately its nothing but infant, baby and very young kid items 80% of the time now.

Oh well, Ill stop ranting about this after this one ;)

Here is a video demo of how this thing works, folds and plays.

We have this and my daughter loves it! The stuffed animals are bright, colorful and all make different sounds. The set folds down quickly and stands up easily in a corner of the room or closet. My only complaint is the size of the mat. It was great for when she was tiny, but she started to roll over at around 2 months so she gets stuck on the fabric supports. Of course it doesn't hurt her, but it limits her mobility enough that we reserve this mat for travel only now. The bolster pillow didn't really work for us - it's too thin and small, but the toys are really great. We took them from this set and put them with a bigger mat. I'm actually considering buying another mat for the toys alone!

My kid hates tummy time. Does the wedge help? Or, does it cancel out the point of putting him on his stomach?

I LOVE the idea of a baby.woot.com I am due in August with my first crumbsnatcher and I am always looking for deals!

I've found the only things that help with tummy time are a colorful surface (to encourage the kid to lift their head to look at it) and getting down on the ground with them. I mean it - I literally put my face on the carpet and sing and play with my daughter. When she was much smaller I put her on a blanket on a table (always attended, of course) so I wouldn't have to lay on the floor for 20 minutes.

Yes, I think it still counts as tummy time if they are on the bolster. I know a lot of moms who do tummy time on the boppy, which is much larger than this gym's little bolster.

Is the pad machine washable?

Really good reviews on Amazon. Looks like some people got defective ones but the company replaced them cheerfully enough.
