Guide Review - Discover and Play Activity Center by Baby Einstein

Exersaucers are the modern parents answer to the walker or jumper of yesteryear. These stationary toys, allow baby to sit alone and yet play with toys and other objects. Yet they don't have some of the risks often associated with the other toys.

This one is particularly nice because of the variety of stuff on the tray table. You've got music, a book, a puppet, and some varied rattles. These are all brightly colored, friendly and hopefully educational.

It, of course, takes batteries. The battery pack is nicely hidden from prying kids and toddlers, and yet still accessible for the screwdriver wielding adult. As with most music that doesn't come from an instrument or a CD, the music has a slightly tinny quality to it, though not nearly as badly as some other products available.

This was easy to put together. I completely put it together with the help of one screwdriver, two toddlers and three young children. It did have a detailed instruction booklet.
