Amazon.com Product Description
The Precious Planet Playful Snow Globe & Lights Bouncer from Fisher-Price soothes and delights your baby with its colorful animal friends and scenery. Featuring an innovative toy bar with snow and water scenes, this bouncy seat gives your baby a safe, secure place to rest, bounce, and play. For even more fun, music and nature sounds play in three modes, adding up to a full sensory experience for your little one.

Deluxe seat cradles baby, with vibrations for soothing time.

A friendly polar bear in swirling snow, a light-up aquarium below, a bat-at whale and up to 20 minutes of music!

Two modes of play-baby-activated or continuous-each with music or nature sounds.

Music, Lights and Sounds to Entertain Your Baby
The Snow Globe & Lights Bouncer offers a host of entertainment options, including a magical snow globe, light-up aquarium, and lots of motion. Music, lights, and sounds play when your baby bats the blue whale, while the large seat with soft fabric, bright colors, and friendly animals makes a truly comfy spot for sitting back and relaxing. The newly redesigned toy bar showcases a captivating snow scene on the top and a lit water scene on the bottom, and a polar bear dances on an iceberg while snow flies all around. For even more fun, penguin friends bobble and dance on either side of the bouncer, and a sea turtle and fish swim under the iceberg when your baby bats at the big blue whale that hangs down.

Customizable to Suit Your Baby's Moods
You'll have plenty of options to make this bouncer suit your baby's changing moods and needs. You can switch to the long-play setting for up to 20 minutes of music, lights, and motion, or keep things quieter with just nature sounds. And when it's naptime, you can remove the toy bar so your baby can relax without any distractions.

Designed to Promote Comfort and Security for Your Baby
When your baby can't be cradled in your arms, the Snow Globe & Lights Bouncer offers a safe, comfy spot for her to feel secure. Calming vibrations help soothe away crankiness, while a gentle bouncing motion keeps her calm and happy. Covered with soft, easy-care fabric, the deluxe seat cushions your child and is gentle on delicate skin.

A Variety of Features Encourage Your Baby's Developing Motor Skills
Besides helping to calm and soothe your baby, this bouncer encourages healthy development of key motor skills. First, reaching for and batting at the hanging toys enhances your baby's eye-hand coordination. Additionally, listening to the sweet, upbeat music stimulates your baby's auditory perception. Finally, to foster visual development, colorful animal toys, busy lights, and moving activities keep your baby's eyes engaged.

Safety, Portability, and Ease of Use Give Parents Peace of Mind
The key benefit of the Snow Globe & Lights Bouncer is that it provides a safe, fun place for your baby when he can't be spending one-on-one time with you. Strap your baby in with the three-point harness and you're free to clean, cook dinner, or rest while your child is happily engaged. This toy is lightweight enough to carry from room to room or to bring on picnics and play dates. It's also very easy to clean, thanks to the machine washable seat cover.

Safety and Development Guidelines
The Snow Globe and Lights Bouncer safely holds a child weighing up to 25 pounds and can be used from birth until the child is able to sit upright unassisted.

Customer Reviews

Much Improved
We previously owned the rainforest bouncer. This new design seems to be much better. First the toy bar is less complex,(this hopefully makes it less likely to stop working) closer to baby, a tad bit higher and the whale dose not get in the way of baby's legs. Second the safety belt comes up higher on baby. I feel that this makes it safer. I have heard of babies hanging out of the ocean wonders bouncer while still strapped in. This dose not seem possible with this bouncer. The vibration unit still makes a bit of noise but it seems much quieter than the rainforest bouncer. Baby sits more upright in this than in the rainforest bouncer. I would recommend this to anyone in the market for an entertaining bouncer for there baby. My son loves it he was smiling as soon as he got a look at the toy bar. If you have the rainforest bouncer and are having problems with it fischer price has great customer service. They had me send them back (at there expense) the seat pad and part of the frame and are sending me a 48$ voucher for anything fischer price. Only time will tell if this toy bar is going to last, but so far so good. I will add to my review if anything changes.

Great bouncer, adorable
We bought this bouncer last week and love it! It keeps my 7 week old daughter entertained for up to 30mins and that is saying alot. It gives me time to cook, or do a load of laundry or just eat my lunch. :) She loves staring at the penguin and even smiled at it- she just learned to smile so her smiles are rare. You can play music or nature sounds and when the nature sounds are on then the lights dim a little, which is nice to prevent overstimulation. You can also play the lights and snow globe thing without any music on. I am sure when she is older she will enjoy the baby-activated stuff but for now I love the continous play mode. The fabric on the seat is very soft and comfortable yet feels as if it would be easy to wipe clean. It sits the baby more upright which most babies enjoy but at her current size she could definitely nap in it as well. Yes it's the most expensive bouncer out there, but we bought it after trying a nice baby swing which she hated. Compared to swings, this bouncer is not bad in price for what you get. It provides an entertaining place for the baby to sit, and it's also super cute. Very gender-neutral also. I'm so glad we bought this.

Good Chair, So-So Activity Bar
As a simple chair, this seat is cute and comfy and has been very handy, but there have been some definite drawbacks when it comes to the bells and whistles. For one, the vibration setting sometimes causes the entire battery box to rumble loudly, though I've found that as my little one has gotten older and heavier that she dampens the vibrations and this hasn't been as much of an issue. You also can't really use the vibrate setting when the toy bar is attached because it causes the entire bar to rattle like a jackhammer. This hasn't been a huge problem, though, as my daughter has had little interest in the toy bar. She would watch it for a little while when she was smaller, but it's not nearly as interactive as the description would lead one to believe. At four months, my daughter has pretty much outgrown the seat except for the occasional nap (She gets bored quickly and strains to sit up in it unless she's tired.), and she still can't reach that darn whale. She's by no means a small kid (70th percentile for height at her last doctor visit), but by the time she'll be able to reach that whale she'll have outgrown the seat completely. I wish I had gotten a seat with some lower hanging toys, or better yet with some attachment points so I could hang some of her favorite toys. I've taken to clipping toys to the springs that support the penguin and turtle, which sort of works but is hardly ideal. I bought this seat based on all the glowing reviews, and I have used it a good deal as a chair, but overall I'd say that it's been a little disappointing.
