Infantino Twist and Fold Activity Gym Review

by Kate on June 23rd, 2010 | 3 Comments » | In Baby, Reviews, Toys

The third product of the month for kickoff of the  Infantino Test Drive Mom program is the Twist and Fold Activity Gym.   I really enjoyed reviewing this product, as it brings a smile, endless coos and belly laughs from my daughter every day!

About the Twist and Fold Activity Gym

Unique twist and fold action makes using and storing gym easy! Pops up in one simple motion and folds down for easy storage or travel. Comes with 4 linkable toys and bolster pillow for tummy time. Encourages reaching and engages baby’s senses.

Our Experience

One of the main features of this activity gym that sets it apart from others you may have seen is the unique way that it sets up and folds away so nicely.  Again, Infantino has provided us with a great travel item for vacation! This will be a cinch to fold up and pack to take on the road.    It also is just so darn cute to look at.  Baby girl loves looking at herself in the mirror, she seems to find herself hilarious, and laughs constantly.  She really enjoys the toys that hang down, and they are at a perfect height for her to grab and investigate.  I personally like that it comes with a little bolster pillow that can be placed anywhere on the mat.  This is a good thing for her tummy time that I previously mentioned is not her favorite. She tolerates being on her tummy much longer with the bolster than without.

I decided to set this gym up in my kids’ playroom. It has proven to be a fun toy for both kids. My toddler likes to use his little imagination and puts his cars under the mat in the “garage”.  So it seems as if it is fun for all ages!

To Buy or Not to Buy

To Buy… I would certainly purchase this activity gym, as it is a great gym, easy to store, and so wonderfully entertaining.  Not to mention a great price.

Or Not to Buy… I would like to see maybe one toy with some lights to captivate baby.  Though she is entertained enough with her own smile in the mirror. :)

Shop! The suggested retail price of the Twist and Fold Activity Gym is $39.99, and it can be purchased at Amazon.

    I love how small it folds. I’ve been really impressed with the Infantino products based on your reviews. The ability to fold and easily transport is a big plus.

    I really like how that folds for travel. I have a baby Einstein one that neither of my daughters has liked. I wonder if this would be more interesting to my 3 month old?
