I just bought my LO the Baby Einstein Musical Jumperoo. The box said 4 months up to 25lbs. Friends have raved about how much their children loved being in a bouncer so I thought I'd give it a try. My LO is 4 months old and in the 95 Percentile for his height but his little feet are inches off the ground even when I have it in the lowest setting.
Anyone else with this problem?
Does your little one use one of these? how old are they?
Re: bouncer/activity center, legs too short?
Same problem, different bouncer. We used my dad's old college Shakespeare book for a couple weeks. Now we have a smaller book with a rug on it so he's not slipping & sliding.
My aunt used a baking pan's box for my cousin. Haha
Good luck
Just bought Baby Einstein's jumparoo today. We tried it out at BRU and his feet do seem touch at tippee toes at lowest setting. He's just shy of 5 months and was measured 26" a few weeks ago.
Books seem like a good idea and he'll grow into it.

He may just have a long torso and shorter legs, which would explain why he's tall but his legs don't reach.
DS is 28"+ now and can touch fine but two weeks ago we still had to use the tray from his highchair under him (worked perfectly).
That's funny... Ahh, the many uses for Shakespeare?!?!
