Parenting after a Loss

Zany Zoo..

I was going to order DS a zany zoo for Easter.. I saw someone here had one, and thought DS would just love it!  Anyway, I picked this one to order: (but, if anyone has a better recommendation -- I'm all for it!!)

https://www.amazon.com/Maxim-EverEarth-Garden-Activity-Cube/dp/B0055BEAKK/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1364391725&sr=8-4&keywords=zany+zoo

I saw the age rec by the manufacturer is 3+.. that made me wonder why? I imagine maybe some of the side pieces are smaller, but I could easily just take those off and not allow him to play with them until he's bigger.. but, I thought he'd absolutely love being able to sit and spin all the activities on the sides...

What do you think?  Also -- ~$80-$90 the normal price?  Or is this high?  Thanks!

Re: Zany Zoo..

  • We got a different Zany Zoo at Target for DD's first birthday. I don't remember it being that expensive but it wasn't as fancy.

    Honestly, DD didn't do much with it until a couple of months ago. She would bat at it and pull up on it but didn't rea

  • LO has a zany zoo and I really like it.  He can do more and more with it all the time.  He started just swatting at the spinning letters, but now he can use a finger to get one at a time.  He is also starting to move the beads around on

  • Thanks!  I ended up going ahead and ordering it.. after reading all the reviews, it seems that everyone who reviewed it has a child around the age of 1 year, give or take a few months, playing with it.  DS loves spinning things.. so, that's why
