Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn Crawl-Around Learning Center

This is, hands down, the absolute best toy I have ever purchased for our daughter, not just regarding development, but all around. My daughter is 1-year-old, and has some gross motor delays due to health issues. I purchased this crawl-around toy, and she has taken off with her development. Before this toy, she wasn't pulling up, crawling, scooting or anything. Now, she's pulling up to her knees (and will be pulling up to standing any day now) and scoots all over the place on her butt. (We're pretty sure she's going to skip crawling as she just wants to stand and will now take steps with us.) The side panels are strong enough to support her when she's pulling up, or when we've helped her stand and hold onto them. Each side of the panels has something fun, interesting and developmentally useful that pulls her to it. All the lights, sounds, movement... I cannot speak highly enough of this toy. The little sliding door encourages her to play peek-a-boo with us (but doesn't slam or hurt her when it falls on her hand or fingers), and the various functions (like the light switch, frog slider, etc.) provide assistance with development of fine motor skills, as well. I love the multiple stages on this toy that will keep her entertained and learning for quite some time. This toy was super easy to put together, is very sturdy (can easily support her while kneeling, pulling up or standing) and is well built. It also doesn't move when placed on a carpet or area rug (so you don't have to be concerned about it pulling out from underneath your child as they play or stand). I would not suggest this on laminate or wood floors, though. I truly mean it when I say this toy has been worth every single penny (which was, literally, half the price on Amazon that it was in the stores), and our daughter has spent countless hours playing with it, both by herself, and with us.

Update number 2 - my daughter is 2 now and she still plays with this thing. Also it’s still working! Update - mine stopped working after a couple of months. Then when I tried changing the battery I noticed that it works fine when one of the 3 batteries is not pushed in all the way. I decided to push the little metal plate where the battery contacts in more, and that fixed it! My 1 year old still loves walking around this thing even without all he sounds and lights. Now she is more engaged with the sound back on. Just had it for one day, so can't comment on the longevity yet. But so far it's working well. For all the people complaining that it's cracked - no it's not!!! It comes with 6 screws and 2 of them go into that "cracked" looking corner on the yellow board to connect with the green arch. Once the screws are on the plastics come together perfectly.

I really liked this in theory with all of the activities it offers but there is some sort of wiring problem with these. We returned the first one that we received when it stopped working after one week of use, and it was incredibly difficult to take apart to ship back. We received the replacement and now have the same issue. The sound just keeps shutting off. It's far less useful and educational without being able to hear the different interactive levels. I fear returning and getting a replacement a second time will just be more of the same.

My twins are 10 months old & they are obsessed with this toy. They love to play with it, dance with the music & it's the perfect height for them to pull up on it. It's the first toy my son crawls towards in the morning. It's a great value for the money.

Almost a year later and baby is still using it. No complaints. One precaution: baby flipped over one of the panels (somersault?) as she was reaching over it to grab something on the floor on the opposite side; landed on head (tall for her age so no hard impact) followed by back, not hurt but cried from the shock I believe, not for long though. Keep an eye on baby while she plays with this. Baby learnt her lesson though

We've had this for a couple months now and for the most part our girls love it. The green arch pretty easily comes loose. We're constantly "locking" it back in. And I'd say 4 or 5 times the sound would go on the fritz and it would sound like it was glitching... was kind of odd... BUT for the most part its been good and our girls love it.

My son loves crawling under the arch way and playing with the small phone. It's a great toy that transitions with him from crawling to standing/walking. My 3 year old nephew came for a visit and enjoyed playing with it too, so I think this will be a toy that we will get a lot of use out of.

We've gone through 2 of these. One from Toys R Us and the second from Amazon. We thought maybe the first one was a fluke thing, but the same happened with the second. Within 2-3 weeks everything started malfunctioning. We thought at first it was the batteries. But each time we tried to change the batteries nothing changed. The lights stopped working, the sounds and words skipped if they even worked at all, and eventually it wouldn't turn on anymore. All within a month. I don't suggest this simply because it doesn't last any time.

This one continues to be a big hit. My one year old plays with it several times a day, and even my 3.5 year old will occasionally play with it. There was an issue with the battery not connecting it properly, but a quick fix with a bit of aluminum foil did the trick.

I know the return policy is good but please dont waste your time on this. I saw this toy and thought it would be perfect for my 9month old so first i got it on amazon,and just like i expected my son loved it,to crawl around and it was sturdy enough for him to hold and stand even but after just one week, the music stopped working so i returned it to amazon thinking i might have got a faulty one, since it was out of stock at amazon i purchased it again from Walmart and guess what it stopped working the first day it self, same issue again. I mean one i can understand but 2 from 2 different vendors could probably be 2 different batches. Now thats not acceptable. And whats worse, its a nightmare to take it apart to do a return, amazon was ok with me returning in a different box( i live 1.5hrs from the closest walmart) i need to send this one now and i need to find out how im gonna fo that. So please do not waste your time and money on this piece of garbage.

I bought this for my twins and they love it. Eventually they used it to practice standing up too. It is placed over a foam mat to prevent from they injure themselves. I bought it in January and I have not replaced the batteries yet.

My twins really enjoy this toy. The only downfall I see is that if not played with for a little while it will shut off. You think this would be good, however I feel like I'm endlessly needing to flick it on and off so that it'll make noise for them. Also seems to be a glitch in the sound, however we are still using original batteries. Overall, we are really happy with our purchase. Both babies can pull themselves to standing at the same time without any concern of it tipping over. There is more than enough room for 2 children. We purchased as we needed more entertainment during the cold winter season.. and I am not disappointed. It did take them a little bit to warm up to playing with it, although I purchased when they were 9 months. Now at 10 months they love playing with it, even without sound. Very happy with the purchase.

The stickers easily peel off, actually arrived with one not properly attached.
