Activity Gyms

Babies need to engage in playtime, as the act of playing helps them learn, develop and grow. Activity gyms are a great way for parents to introduce baby to independent play, while supporting their limited movement skills. Baby activity gyms often combine an interactive activity arch with a soft, comfortable playmat for children to lie, sit and crawl on. Activity gyms offer sensory stimulation and fun. These great products feature toy bars that arch over baby when they’re lying on the mat, with dangling toys for them to bat and engage with. Bright colours, cute characters and sensory toys are all designed to be attractive to parents and their little ones.

Baby Brands Direct stocks a unique range of baby activity gyms in a variety of styles, colours and textures at fantastic wholesale prices. Our selection of products are manufactured by leading brands within the nursery sector, such as Fisher-Price, Tiny Love, VTech and Infantino. Each activity gym has been designed with a child’s development in mind, so retailers can rest assured that not only are these products fun and engaging, they are also beneficial for baby’s wellbeing.

Why are activity gyms great for babies? 

Activity gyms have become a staple product in the average family home. They are inexpensive and easy to set up and use - and give children the freedom to explore and play independently, even when they are still quite young. As standard, the gym mat is made of soft, plush and padded material, so it is comfortable for babies to lie on when they can’t support themselves and sit upright. 

The dangling toys above them will inspire and encourage them to reach up. The action of reaching and trying to grab or bat at these toys will help to develop fine and gross motor skills, as well as strengthening their muscles. This can also help develop their hand-eye coordination skills and teach them cause and effect, as they realise their movements affect the world around them! 

Activity gyms also offer fantastic sensory stimulation. There are numerous textures for baby to feel and touch, including plastic, fabric and fur. Squeakers, rattles, crinkly surfaces all offer a range of sounds for little one to hear and enjoy. Bright colours and patterns are also used to offer visual stimulation and help develop baby’s eyesight and cognitive skills.
