Nuby Penguin Baby Play Mat – Baby Toy Activity Play Gym with Sensory Toys and Padded Base for Baby Tummy Time

Product Information

A baby gym is a padded play mat with an activity arch that includes games and sensory elements to catch your baby’s attention. They often come with a selection of hanging toys for your little one to work on their mental and physical development too.

Introducing the Penguin Play Gym Gray – a premium haven of entertainment and stimulation designed to delight your precious baby. This sensory play mat isn't just a mat; it's a universe of discovery, boasting interactive characters and soft toys that awaken your baby's senses and ignite their curiosity.TINY FRIENDS: The playmat comes with large eyed, smiling characters and stimulating toys: a crinkly peek-a-boo game, mini mobile, plush cloud, wind chime toy, contrast book, teether and a mirror Think of a baby gym as an entry-level workout for little adventurers on their first foray into the big wide world of independent exploration. It’s also a great way for little people to develop the muscles they need to lift their heads and, eventually, to sit up, crawl and walk. And last but by no means least, it's a safe space to pop your little one when you need a moment's peace. The benefits of using a baby gym You can use a baby gym or play mat from day one under supervision, but babies between three to six months old get the most from this type of sensory development. During this stage, your little one starts to develop hand-eye coordination, so reaching for dangling toys and playing with crinkly fabrics can be a fun challenge. A baby needs love and three things – somewhere to sleep, a way to eat and somewhere to play!' says Sophie Lilley, Founder or Munchkin & Bear UK and The Baby Show exhibitor. 'A good play mat or baby gym creates a safe space to develop their muscles, learn how to move, practice balancing and have fun!' SUPPORT BRAIN DEVELOPMENT: Five unique development zones on the Play Mat help your baby learn to focus, make sounds, explore touch and colour, and hide and find objects. Each zone is concealable to prevent overstimulation.

When choosing a baby activity gym, look out for colours, textures and fun features to help stimulate baby’s senses. Rattles, teethers and baby-safe mirrors encourage baby to reach and stretch, while overhead toy bars are great for lay and play fun. Some of our baby gyms feature prop pillows for a comfier tummy time, while others come with detachable toys for on the go.

VERSATILE SENSORY PLAY MAT: The gym stimulates several senses through musical tunes, textures, and high contrast visualisation - teaching your baby about senses, imaginative play and cause and effect Look for non-toxic materials, says Lilley. 'Your little one will have their mouth on it after all!' she explains. 'Definitely think about how easily you can clean it too – popping one in the washing machine is great, but frankly the washing pile is huge when you have a newborn and then it still has to dry before you can use it again.' Storage

BABY CONTRAST BOOK: The high contrast toy mesmerises your baby and stimulates his/her senses - take it with you on strolls or outings to provide endless fun wherever you goADJUSTABLE ARCHES and PLAY MODES: Due to the innovative arch connecter, the play mat can be adjusted according to your baby's growth and activity, or remove the arches completely for side-by-side play

Detachable arches adorned with charming characters redefine playtime. A squeaking cloud, a polar bear rattle, a chime-equipped penguin teddy, and a captivating mirror make every moment engaging. These interactive features refine hand-eye coordination, cognitive skills, and sensory development.
