Baby Playnest

In addition to providing stimulation for babies, the playnest helps to strengthen the core muscles associated with sitting. Even when babies are old enough to crawl out from the playnest, it is a good place for them to relax and calm down, in addition to the educational benefits that it provides.

One of the benefits of the nest is that it has a wide range of uses as the child ages. When the baby is young and cannot sit up, the playnest provides a place of security where the child can rest against the raised edges. As they begin to sit up, the nest provides a measure of security; because if they fall backwards, then they land on a soft surface.

The basic Galt playnest comes in two variations, farm and jungle. The farm variation has images of 12 different animals and five different textures. A more complex variation also exists which is the Playnest and Gym. This consists of the same basic playnest design, but in addition, there are two intersecting arches, which toys hang off. This provides stimulation for children who have progressed to the stage where they can sit with little effort, and they are beginning to look for new stimulation. The addition of the gym portion to the playnest allows it to be useful for much longer in an infant’s life. 

A different Galt product which follows a similar idea is that of the playnest car. Like the standard playnest, this is inflated on all sides. However this is aimed more at older infants who are able to sit up. The design of the product is similar to that of a car, and like the standard playnest, it is fully machine washable. One of the key features of the product is the motoring sounds and the interactive dashboard.
