**Product received for review.


If you've been following long, it will probably come as no surprise when I say we love Tiny Love toys in our household. It started with the wonderful 3-in-1 Rocker Napper- Finley loved watching the lights and listening to music as she lounged. The Flexi Play then kept her entertained for hours! And her Follow Me Fiona still remains an absolute favorite. So we were all beyond thrilled when one of Tiny Love's newest additions arrived on our doorstep for review. Today, I'm super excited to share with you that new addition, the Gymini Developlace.

Perhaps one of my favorite features of many of the Tiny Love toys we own is the versatility of play options and their ability to grow with your child. No one wants to spend money on a toy that your little one will outgrow in just a few short weeks, but Tiny Love toys don't tend to have that problem. The Gymini Developlace is no different, offering 5 modes of play ranging from newborn to toddler (I'll admit, even my 6 year old was having a blast with it!). For the littlest newborn it provides a closed, comfy play environment. As baby gets a bit bigger, it turns to a wonderful activity gym, tummy time mat and tunnel for crawling. There are even some super fun activities on the outer activity wall for older babies and toddlers! There are so many ways to play, appropriate for all levels of development.



For Finley, we loved it with the walls up creating a fun tunnel. She's not crawling yet, but enjoyed exploring the space around her. Her favorite part were all the great toys hanging down, so we loved that they could all be taken down and moved wherever she'd like them best...even if that meant her hands!! I also love that it provided her with that freedom she loves, but with the walls up offers a bit more containment than a typical play mat...so if mama has to leave the room for a minute, she's less likely to be into things. That is not to say that she cannot-or has not- wiggled and rolled her way out, but at least slows her down a bit! And if you do have a little squirmer like mine and worry about the poles being painful if bumped into, I can assure you they are super soft and bendy- Finley has even managed to roll it over on it's side and onto them and kept right on playing!

The quality is the same great, durable quality we've found in all Tiny Love products. In the short time we've had it, it's already taken a lot of abuse (I did mention big brother had been enjoying it too, right) and has held up to it all beautifully, I have no doubts it will last a long while to come. Perhaps one of my other favorite features is the fun design. It offers lots of fun, bright colors that attract baby and the grassy nature theme is carried out beautifully. Typically, we tend to gravitate to the super girly themes, but I honestly could not imagine a better design for this one!!




Overall, we were thrilled with the Tiny Love Gymini Developlace. I personally think this might very well be my favorite Tiny Love product we've tried so far. Finley still prefers her Follow Me Fiona it seems, but this is definitely a close second- she plays with it daily! (In fact, as I write this review, she is happily playing away!)
