Playpen Reviews

There are few playpens that children actually WANT to play in. That’s why we were enthused to find the Graco TotBloc Playpen, the perfect playpen for any baby or toddler. Our two children have used the Graco playpen since their first months in this world and have loved it since day one. Mikey, our older son, insists on bringing his play cars into the Graco playpen – so we wind up watching him driving his little Hotwheels all around the playpen, making engine noises with his lips. It’s a blast for the whole family!

The bright colors of the Graco TotBloc Playpen are the first feature that any parent (and child) notices. The richness of the colors makes the Graco playpen attractive in our suburban home, and the children surely enjoy it. A lot of other playpens are monochromatic and appear dull to kids. But the Graco playpen, with its alternating colors and sewed-in ladybug designs, always keeps them entertained. There are also some great decals on the mesh sides – a sun, a bug, etc. – which make the Graco playpen a perfect fit in any playroom.

We started using a bassinet for our child at four months old. It was an older bassinet, and our child never seemed that happy in it. She’d frequently cry when we placed her in it, and when she let us leave her there she’d just cry in a few minutes because of boredom. We bought the Graco Pack and Play out of suspicion that she needed a bassinet a little more modern – and we were right. Now our baby rests on her back and plays with the swinging mobile that extends over her. Not only is she entertained by the cute toys that spin overhead, but she’s developing muscle and hand coordination. If I need to work on projects on the computer or cook at any point in the day, I know that I can have her in the Graco Pack and Play right by my side, both happy and taken care of.

Graco Pack N Play Review – As a young couple, my husband and I wanted a reliable bassinet for our arriving child. We’d heard from other parents that there’s nothing worse than a bad napping area for your child – they’ll wake up cranky, cry throughout the night, and keep you awake when you need to sleep. We didn’t know what to buy, but when my husband researched customer reviews, he was certain that the Graco Pack N Play was the perfect product for us. Most important to him was that we get a product with safe meshing. Decades ago, baby products were sol that had mesh holes large enough that babies got buttons on their clothing stuck inside and occasionally suffocated. Because of this, any baby product with meshing needs to have mesh holes smaller than a quarter-inch. The Graco Pack N Play is one of those products.

Our Graco Play Yard story – While my wife was pregnant, we were both worried how we’d keep up our busy lifestyles with a newborn child. My parents live nearby and we’re frequently going over for family dinners. How could the addition of a baby not disturb our way of life? Aren’t most bassinets and play yards big and heavy, hard to fold up to travel size and then reassemble? And then, at the baby shower, my wife received the Graco Element Pack N Play Yard with Bassinet from a good friend. We didn’t know anything about the Graco Play Yard, but since it was giving to us as a gift, we decided to give it a try.
