Fun to play with
I got this for my niece. She did not get on it intially but as she saw it couple of times she got on it and now she is not letting it go. Lots of fun.
Sturdy, safe, and fun
I picked this up for my 10-month old girl. At about 20 lbs, she was starting to pull herself up and stand while holding on to the coffee table. We had retired the exersaucer and then the Jumperoo and it was time to find something else to sit her on by herself.
She didn't really take to it right away - at first she would only sit on it backwards while holding the tail-handle. But after a few days she was sitting front-facing and kicking up her feet. She just loves it now, and can sit on it for about five to ten minutes depending on her mood.
The giraffe (I call it a zebra or a horse usually because, except for the spots, it doesn't look like a giraffe - it has a short neck) is a great toy for several reasons. It is wide enough that she doesn't fall off, but can climb off if she concentrates. She likes to plant her feet on the ground and stand up while holding the handles - so it is helping her strengthen her legs and learn to stand. It rocks a little, but does not really slide - really it allows just the right amount of movement. Basically, she is pretty safely immobile without feeling trapped.
There is also a little compartment in the back where baby can stash a couple of toys, and for some reason she really gets a kick out of putting things in there and taking them out again.
The giraffe is quite sturdy (you do have to put it together yourself, which really means snapping five or six pieces together and screwing them down tight), and is compact and cute enough to leave out in the open without really bothering anybody or getting in the way.
I would highly recommend this for a youngster, they'll probably find even more ways to enjoy it.
Best present she got.
I bought this for my friend's daughter last year; she's 16 months now. She loved it. My friend said is was the best present she got. Plus it was only 10 dollars with free shipping
