Babies grow really quickly and if you want to get some good use out of a toy for the little one, find one that grows with them – like this genius play gym. It's perfect for growing babies because it’s fun through many stages — including transforming into a little tent when they're sitting up and more mobile. Developmental experts helped with every thoughtful element of the activities to help babies' brain and motor development. The fact that it's cute and not garish primary colors is just an added bonus.
