Since it has such a high back I can't put the mobile on the back which is where I would have liked to have put it. I think it looks beter on the side my only conern is that even though I can get it pretty tight, the side of the crib slants down so it's not like it has a flat mounting point like the front does, but it looks really dumb in the front and in the way. hmm...
Side

Front

Just an upclose of the monkey, so cute.

Re: PIP: Put mobile on front or side of crib?

The side, I had the same problem with DS crib because it had a high back as well and thankfully I kept the crib so will use it again with DD.
Is that a Graco Lauren?
I like it on the side. I think it would be awkward to take the baby in and out with the mobile in front.
No we got ours from JCPenny.
