Infant-to-Toddler Rocker, Gender Neutral                                                           $69.99

My Third Toy review of the Fisher Price Products is the Infant – to – Toddler Rocker.

This product is similar to a bouncy chair but has many more options and features in my opinion.  See below the features:

• Grow-with-baby product featuring an infant rocker with a fold-out kickstand that easily converts the rocker to a stationary seat for feeding or sleeping

• Can also be used as a toddler rocking seat – all the way up to 40lbs!

• Soft toybar with 3 fun, spinning toys – a frog with a hanging caterpillar that plays a tune when pulled, a snail, and a colorful bug

• Toybar removes easily for access to baby and for when toddlers outgrow it

• Soothing vibrations and a machine washable pad make it the perfect product for baby and mom

Everything listed above is true except one items which is the soothing vibration.  It is soothing in terms of it calms my son down if he’s upset but it is not soothing for everyone else. When we first turned it on it sounded like there was an earthquake happening in our house. The item is unfortunately a little loud compared to other  bouncy chairs/rockers that we’ve used in the past but now we are used to it – it’s just part of our loud busy house.

The best part of the rocker is that it adjusts so your baby can either sit up or lie down (not completely flat).  This came in handy for when my son was a newborn – he would lie down and stare at us very contently.  Now that he is older he wants to look around and sit up which the rocker allows him to do.

We have a highchair in the house but my daughter still uses it so having the rocker around is a great help for feeding him solids.  With the built in kickstand my son can use the chair as a highchair for now.

As you can see from my review there are a lot of good features from this Fisher Price Rocker.  It’s more than just an ordinary bouncy/rocker chair which is nice for when you live in a small home, like ours – limiting the amount of baby items is helpful for saving space.

Overall I’d recommend this product for all the features but if you’re looking for something for your little one to have a snooze it on a regular basis this may not be the right fit.  For us we use it as a place to but our little man when we can’t hold it and he likes it! (I guess that’s the most important part).
