DD got a door jumper at my baby shower. She can touch the ground but the seat is huge so her mouth just barely comes up to the rim of the seat So she sits there and chews on the seat and eventually gets bored. She loves standing/sitting up. She has really good body and head control and can sit supported very well.
The big regular jumperooss look to be a little more comfy and entertaining. I've done some research and I think I want to try out the Fisher Price Rainforest or Khaki Sands.
Do you think that she would enjoy the regular bouncers more so than the door bouncer. Obviously it has more toys. Those things are just expensive and I don't want it to be a waste. Any experience?
Re: Jumperoo thoughts.
I'm not too worried about space at our home. We have a breakfast nook that we don't use that's in between our living room and kitchen. It's turned into DD's play area. (She loves the huge window there) So she's got her own space for all of her stuff. But I've seen the things at Target. They are pretty big!
Yeah, mine is getting there. Especially DD's little area. Oh well. Comes with the territory I suppose! :-)
We have both and I honestly think he gets more out of the door jumper. In fact, he's been jumping nonstop for the last 30 minutes or so. The big activity jumper takes up a lot of space and he ends up just standing in it and chewing on the toys, so when it comes to actual exercise, the door jumper gets way more action.
If you have the space and money I'd just get both. The door jumper's only like $20 and very portable, so that comes in handy. I got one so that I can move it around the house and take it with me upstairs when I need something to entertain him while I'm up there with my daughter/doing chores.
It really just depends on your LO, I think. Mine is not a huge fan of hers. She tolerates it for about 5-7 minutes at a time, then wants out.
Edit: I have the FP Rainforest Jumperoo
For this child I prayed, and the LORD has given me my petition which I asked of him.
