FP Ocean Wonders or Rainforest mobile- one better than the other?

We had the ocean wonders but when I opened the box the item was covered in hair & dirty - so that got returned.  It was not in stock so I did not pick up another one.  MY mom just gave the rainforest one as an Easter gift....debating if I should return it & try & find the Ocean wonders one.  It's not for the decor but for entertainment purposes...

We have the Rainforest mobile with the leaves that move. DS loooooooves it. When I put him under it he just starts wiggling & kicking & screeching with happiness. It's so cute.

We have both (one for each baby) and they both seem to be more excited over the Rainforest one.

We own most of the set of Rainforest items, so we have no experience with Ocean Wonders items, although they were our second choice.  I can totally vouch for the Rainforest mobile as being wildly entertaining!  My DS is now 5.5 months old, and he goes to sleep by watching the animals and leaves spin around.  I most like that the animals/leaves seem to "move" by moving up and down as well as spinning, something that other mobiles in our theme don't. 

Also, the mobile allows you to turn off the leaves for night-time sleeping (and saving some battery strength)-the sounds and light can be on only at this time.  DS smiles everytime he sees the nightlight part turn on and can see the animals!  Now he's old enough to try and reach for the animals while laying down-we catch him squeeling at them some mornings.    Oh, and batteries last about 2.5-3 months if you remember to sneak in and turn it off at night. 

Hope this helps!
