Babies: 9 - 12 Months

What's better and can be used the longest (jumperoo, exersaucer, etc?)

hi all!

I am from 3-6 board and I want to purchase one of these for my LO. Just wanted to ask you what you feel is the best and which one? I am confused as all these things look the same to me. Please help! thanks! 

Re: What's better and can be used the longest (jumperoo, exersaucer, etc?)

  • To me, the jumperoo is an exersaucer that they can jump around in, so I would get a jumperoo over an exersaucer.  As for which one, I think your instincts are right to think they are all the same!  E loves his Fisher-Price Jumperoo, but I'm sure we had got another brand/theme, he would love that as well.  We don't put him in it much, only when we really need to get things done and keep him busy (so maybe 1-2x a week), and he still loves it (started using it at 4mo old).
    If being a math nerd is wrong, I don't wanna be right!

  • DD has had a "jumparoo" (that hangs in the doorway) and an exersaucer (not a walker) and she likes the jumparoo better.  I like it b/c it doesn't take up any floor space and is not as noisy as the exersaucer.

  • We have both.  The exersaucer we got brand new and the jumperoo was a hand-me-down.  I did not think he would use the jumperoo at all, but he loves it.  He liked the exersaucer for a while and preferred it over the jumper, but now he is too tall for it and gets bored.  But he still loves the jumperoo.

    So despite my hesitations, my vote is for the jumperoo.  But it may also depend on the child.

  • DS has the Fisher Price Rainforest Jumperoo. It's stationary like an exersaucer. I thought it was a better buy when choosing between the two. I know it's silly, but I don't like the Rainforest pattern because it clashes with my home decor. After many recommendations for it we purchased it for DS and he really loves it. We actually don't use it often, but at nearly 12 months he still enjoys it a lot.

  • jumperoo for sure.  The jumperoo is basically the same as the exersaucer except they can also jump in it too!

    We have this one...he started using it at 4 months and still does

    We have this and DS loves it!  He has had it since about 5 or 6 months and still uses it!

    DS was in PT for a while and the Physical Therapist did say NOT to use a doorway jumper. She said that it does put too much stress on their hips. Not sure if that helps, but good luck!
