The best Christmas toys for 2021

This playmat can convert into a ball pit, coming with 35 colourful balls and grows from newborn to toddler. Review: "The activity gym arrived on time and well packaged. It's very colourful and has lots of props to keep baby engaged. Started keeping my 4 week old in the gym for 5 mins to start with. I have placed a baby changing mat as a base and place baby on the baby changing mat for extra cushioning. Now at 4 months old, it's a daily routine that my baby plays in the activity gym twice (and if I am lucky thrice) a day. That's 40 minutes to get the chores done!! As a new parent I really appreciate getting that time."

The only thing is so far we have not been able to get it to do what he's told. I need to take some time to read up more. He liked to throw the nut across the floor a lot, which my daughter loves!!

Review: "My baby (4 months) absolutely loves this cow, it's the perfect size for him to hold, the buttons on the front spin round and they are easy for babies to push. There are little rings on the side for teething babies to chew and the songs he sings are really cute. The whole family knows the 'I'm a soft and happy cow' song now and we can't help but sing it every time we switch him on!"
