I can't say for sure if another kick and crawl would work better, but my son does tend to like this when he is on his back. NOT on his tummy. Granted he is 2 months old and still learning to lift his head. But I don't think it is padded quite enough to be comfortable.

Also, I feel that the ball hangs down too low. And when using this for tummy time, the mat could sit sturdier.

I read all the other reviews, and these are my inputs:
1. It is sturdy, I have 4 others and this one worked well on my carpet (very thick) and on my hardwood. If its put together correctly it will stand up, there are straps under the light blue plastic cups, these make it stand up right. It has been though about 15 washes, its color is great and its still sturdy. Plastic tabs that insert in the sides have warped a little but were in the tunnel stage now.
I love the tummy part of this, we triangled the end piece and attached the toys, on the mat part...worked great for about 15 minutes of peace.
Baby did pull off the toys b/c of the velcro used, but thats the point, pull and get rewarded with a chew toy!! Yeah mom and dad get to put it back together, but thats life.

As far as the favorite toy (has to be) the blow up beach ball with the cat toy inside, hes going on 8 months and that one still gets him, he spends 10 minutes trying to get that ball out, ha ha.

I love the versatility of this compared to the other four we have scattered around the house. Ive NEVER had to put this one back together from him tearing it apart like some other reviews on here. As far as the other 4, many times Ive put them together....the only thing i wish could change, the blue plastic tabs could insert into their respective places a little tighter, they are getting worn.
As far as all that, we in tunnel stage and he likes to crawl though it, roll on his back and peek at me leaning over it on the other side, it makes him giggle so hard.

I like this one, I would purchase it again if it ever broke!

I received this as a hand-me-down item. When I put my 3 month old on it she didn't have enough room to roll over. It's pretty cheap. I would never buy this product.

I bought this toy mat when my baby was 5 months old, she loves it! She loves to kick and hit the ball and make th fish sing. The only con I have for this toy is that the mirror needs to be more slanted so the baby can see themselves better. Worth every penny.

after hours of attempting to make the short velco pieces hold, my husband and i finally gave up. the pieces are way too short. my son is now 3 months old and is completely uninterested in this toy. i have tried so hard to get him to use the tummy time configuration but all he does is scream. the materials feel cheap, it doesn't assemble properly, and i would have gladly paid more money for a quality product he actually enjoys.

We bought it for our baby, but the bars never held together. The mat was assembled with really cheap velcro holds which kept falling apart. We returned it and bought Tiny Love Gymini, much happier with that and our baby loves it!!

The pieces of velcro that hold the toy bars to the mat are way too short and it constantly comes apart. I wish I had kept the reciept for this to go back. It's definitely not worth the money.

My son is 3 1/2 months old and he loves to lay on the mat and play with the toys! He used to just look at them and now he's actually reaching for them and laughing when he plays with it! He loves to kick the ball at the other end and wait for the jingle sound! The toy fish have different textures in the tail and one sings songs! When I lay him on his belly to play with the toys he loves to look at him self in the mirror! I can't wait for him to crawl so we can turn it into the tunnel! I'm glad that the arches are made of soft material so I'm not worried about him getting hurt when he's crawling. It's also a life saver to keep him busy so I can get a bottle ready or even answer the phone. :)

The only problem with this mat is that the actual mat is held on my velcro and did not stay put. We just took the mat away and Liam played just with the blue arches. He loves the ball and has come up with a game trying to hit the ball over the arch. When he was 2 1/2 months old he learned how to punch the button on the fish to make him sing. He enjoys it and it was one of his favorites while he was unable to crawl. Now that he can get up and go he would rather explore the house (like they all do :D). I would recommend getting this activity mat.
