Austin Babies

What age did you....

put away the swing, bouncy and activity mat? Gracie has not been in any of these items the last 3+ weeks and I was thinking of putting them in the attic for #2 (whenever that may be), but I am having some mixed feelings about all of this. I can't believe my baby girl would have outgrown those already, but she is way more interested in her exersaucer and other toys.

Re: What age did you....

  • A never really took to the swing and we finally pulled it out of the playroom at 6 months.

    We stopped using the bouncy seat when she started rolling over from back-to-tummy.

    We still use the activity mat every day. She plays on it in the mornings while I prepare her breakfast.

  • Bouncy we took away probably around 4-5 months.  Swing and mat were put away about 8 months.  He really liked the swing and until he started trying to sit up in it he napped in it. 
  • We are contemplating putting away the bouncy seat, he definitely is not interested now that he can roll over.  He uses the activity mat all the time, so we aren't putting that away any time soon.  I can't decide about the swing.  He slept in it a lot when he was little, which he doesn't do now, but he is more interested in the mobile.  We don't use it a lot though, so we may go ahead and put it away.
  • I sold the swing on CL when he was about 5 months old.  I didn't want to store it (limited space) and figured it would be awhile before we'd have another.  HAHA!  ;)

    Bouncy chair went away earlier, because he got too big for it.

    I kept the activity mat out until he was rolling both ways and would tip it over on top of himself.

  • The bouncy seat was the first to go at around 5 months. The swing was next at around 6 months but because he hadn't really used it in a while. His playmat is still in his playroom but he hasn't used that in a couple on months.
  • We still have all 3 out. Though he hardly ever uses the swing. I put him in his bouncy chair sometimes when I'm fixing his bottle. But it is a infant to toddler chair so it might be different than the ones other's have. He still likes to play with his mat a little bit but not near as much as he did when he was 4 - 5months old. We could probably put all 3 away and he would be fine.
