A baby activity gym is a play mat designed specifically for infants to encourage movement and stimulate their sensory development. These are one of our favourite baby shower gifts because parents yearn to have them, but rarely want to buy them. 

 

There are a few different variations of playmate and activity gyms for babies. Some feature the traditional bar or arch with soft toys hanging, while others are floor mats for exploration and discovery. Many baby activity gyms have other features such as mirrors, crinkle toys, and tummy time pillows to help stimulate and engage the baby. The activity gym is a great tool for parents to encourage physical activity, improve fine and gross motor skills, and provide a safe and comfortable play environment for their little one.
