and storage: The jumpers we tested range from weighing a couple pounds for the doorway jumpers to more than 20 pounds for the big activity centers. The big ones are not easy to travel with at all, but some of them can be stashed out of the way. There may be activities for parents and children at your local leisure centre or Sure Start Children's Centre. The jumpers with all the different toys and the option to hang more toys are great," said Good Housekeeping Institute Executive Director of Textiles Lexie Sachs, a mom of two young kids. "I tried out more simple activity centers, hoping for something that looks less babyish, but my kids weren't impressed." And, she noted, since she wanted to keep a baby in the jumper while she made dinner or got dressed, she needed it to hold their attention for 15 minutes. set small goals – help your child to sit still and concentrate for a very short time, perhaps on a book or new toy, then gradually build it up

This activity center is popular because of its modern design and attractive color palette. The seat spins around completely, and there are a half dozen stylish toys, though some testers felt that the activities didn't hold their babies' attention for very long. (You can always buy other toys to sit on the tray.) One cute feature: A clear panel lets your baby stare down at their own feet as they step on the toy piano and activate it. With jumpers, there are two risks at play. The first concern centers around mounted jumpers that must be attached somehow to a door frame or beam. While these are considered safe from the get-go, that’s when they’re used properly. Always supervise your baby when they’re in a bouncer. Jumpers Pulling, pushing, grasping and playing with other people are great ways to practise different kinds of movements. Some jumpers come with lots of included activities, and many offer space for you to add your own toys.

Coping with a very active toddler

Watching TV or using a tablet for long periods – or being strapped into a buggy, car seat or highchair – is not good for young children. Parents who rely too heavily on a jumper to keep babies occupied may accidentally delay their motor development as babies learn to crawl and walk. The huge plus of this model is that it converts to a useful preschool table when your baby starts cruising, which means taking steps while holding onto something. The springboard is designed to take the place of the seat, forming a flat tabletop, and the whole thing becomes a great table for coloring, playing with dough and other toddler and preschool activities. Because there are potential obstructions around the bouncer, a very active baby may accidentally hit their head, arms, or other body parts against the door frame. Tummy time is important for your baby's development as it helps to build the muscles your baby needs for sitting and crawling. You can start doing tummy time from birth by lying your baby on your chest – but only do this when you're wide awake and unlikely to fall asleep.

At times you may wonder if your non-stop toddler has ADHD. But only a small number of children in the UK have ADHD. It's more likely that your child is just a healthy, energetic toddler. Make sure the jumper is in an open, level space . It will be safest if you keep it within your eyesight, and your baby will be happiest if they can see you too. Little and often is best to begin with. Gradually increase the amount of time you do this day by day. Then, when your baby is ready, try doing tummy time on the floor. If your baby has difficulty lifting their head, you can roll up a towel and put it under their armpits. Put some toys nearby for them to reach out to. You're a role model for your child so stay active yourself and try to meet the physical activity guidelines for adults.baby walkers or bouncers – these encourage babies to stand on their tiptoes and can delay walking if your baby uses them a lot You can take your baby swimming from a very young age – there's no need to wait until they've been vaccinated. baby carriers and seats – long periods in reclining carriers or seats, or seats that prop your baby in a sitting position, can delay your baby's ability to sit up on their own Granted, this won't last through preschool like Skip Hop's jumper-to-table (also on our list), but Bounce Bounce Baby becomes a toddler toy table that's useful until about your child's second birthday. Because there are no overhead arches, it has a slightly lower profile than other baby jumpers. We especially like that you can replace the seat with a net that holds toys for your toddler to fish out. Just like other children, they will enjoy being active and it will help their development. You may need to adapt some activities to suit your child.
