You never know — your baby could be the next Julie Ertz, and it’s never too early to practice those basic athletic skills.
With VTech’s new Kick & Score Playgym, babies can enjoy some active playtime pretty much right out of the womb. The multistage play mat perfectly grows with babies to meet their needs. Little ones can start developing early motor skills by laying on their backs and kicking at the hanging soccer ball or swatting at the giraffe. The mat is super bright and colorful with lots to engage with and stare at during wake times.Â
Tummy time is super important for babies to help strengthen their neck and core muscles, and the Playgym delivers on fun activities to enjoy while babies show off how strong they are. The mat features a super cute dumbbell rattle (never thought I’d call a dumbbell “cute,” but here we are!), a twist-and-click kettle ball, color cards to flip through, and more.
As babies get older and can enjoy some seated play, the Playgym continues to deliver. The interactive learning panel teaches colors, shapes, and animal names, while also reinforcing language skills through exciting sound effects and audio prompts. The panel is fully detachable, so kids can take it on the go, or even just carry it around the house when they start to walk and move around. The soccer ball is also removable, so as kids skills develop, they can practice scoring goals in the house by kicking the ball straight into the included net.
There are a lot of infant gym options out there, but this one is an easy win for new parents or anyone looking for the perfect baby gift simply because of how much it offers. It features tons of detachable accessories, bright colors, animals, sports elements, and lots of engaging sounds and phrases. Babies can explore everything it has to offer one developmental milestone at a time. The perfect baby shower or newborn gift, it really grows with kids and gives them a safe, fun place to play. Plus, it sets up in minutes and comes from one of the most trusted brands out there: VTech! Bonus: It’s washable!
With the Kick & Score Playgym, babies will get a head start on their future athletic careers, while also conquering early milestones and developing basic motor skills. The sensory explosion will definitely delight little ones and keep them engaged, learning, and having fun.
