Are you looking for a way to keep a child entertained? An interactive play gym or activity centre is a brilliant solution!

These versatile accessories are available for a wide range of children from birth through to toddler years. Our collection showcases a broad selection of products that can be chosen which are suitable for either certain ages or are items that can transition as a child grows.

It is important to teach a little one to develop confidence in their movements. One way to achieve this is by using doorway bouncers. The accessories offer plenty of support, making them ideal for children who are still growing. However, they must only be used by babies who can support their own heads as they do not offer complete postural surrounds. This means most doorway bouncers can be used from the age of six months, with the recommended maximum age limit being around a year.

This will differ depending on the child, so pay attention to the baby's current developmental phase, as some may grow out of a doorway bouncer quicker than others.

Play time isn't just an opportunity for parents to distract a child whilst they get essential tasks done. Instead, it should be an opportunity for children to develop independence whilst also fine-tuning motor, social and emotional skill sets. 

Play gyms and activity centres, including various toys, all designed to improve strength and grip. They can also enhance hand-eye coordination plus help children to develop an ealy sense of cause and effect. Many of these products are also full of bright colours plus other educational elements like shapes and characters, which can be used to enhance children's learning from a young age. 

Another benefit is that these accessories are simple to move around, meaning a source of comfort and entertainment can be taken around even while travelling. They also include cushioned bases, meaning that any flat surface can be used as a base for play time.

Babies have a seemingly never ending sense of curiosity which means keeping them engaged is important. A doorway bouncer is an excellent way to achieve just that as it provides an amusing activity for young babies to undertake.  

Doorway bouncers are designed to allow parents to focus on other tasks whilst a baby is still able to move around safely. The bouncer uses a secure fixing system, which ensures they cannot move out of place. The benefits are not only entertainment but also education as using a bouncer teaches babies to independently self-soothe. It’s also a great form of early exercise and starts to build a connection between a baby's feet and movement which is the first step of learning to walk.

Our floor mat designs are ideal for younger babies. These include colourful bases with a range of interactive toys and accessories. Check out the Tiny Love Black & White Gymini as an example.

Check out the Tiny Love Stationery Activity Center as an example. Other activity centres come in many different formats including standalone play mats, tents, sand pits and even trampolines!

Each doorway bouncer is provided with detailed instructions to be sure to always follow these before letting a baby play. Most systems include a spring-loaded door frame clamp which can be snuggly installed to any opening. 

Once installed, the bouncer will need to be fully adjusted to suit the tiny user's height and weight. Many designs include a plastic separator that stops straps from getting twisted, so this must be securely in position. 

Always be sure to test the load-bearing aspects of the bouncer before it’s good to use.

To keep items clean and fresh, simply use baby-friendly cleaning products to wipe down. Any removable items should be deep cleaned every few weeks and also fabrics can be machine washed. Also check out the product's care instructions if you are unsure. 

As is the case for many childcare accessories, babies should never be left alone when using a doorway bouncer. They should also be securely fastened to the seat, plus the system must be checked to ensure everything is central before use. 

As a child grows, the adjustments will also need to be amended to guarantee safe play, so always be sure to see how your baby currently fits before letting them go ahead and start bouncing. Finally, be sure that the door and frame do not show any signs of wear or damage.
