Product Description

The Baby Einstein Pack 'N Play Playard by Graco grows with your baby. You can use it in three configurations: play mat, bassinet with toy gym, or playard with activity panel. It is sure to engage and entertain with color, texture and music. The toy gym attaches to the mattress pad, creating a wonderful play mat for use on the floor. Baby Bach and Baby Vivaldi hang happily overhead while Caterpillar hugs the toy gym. Caterpillar slides off the toy gym and introduces baby to the fascinating world of shapes and textures.

The fun, electronic activity panel plays four Baby Einstein melodies, engaging baby with the joy of music, dancing lights and the concept of numbers. The toy gym also attaches securely to the top of the Pack 'N Play Playard for use when baby is in the bassinet. Once baby has outgrown the bassinet, the activity panel hangs from the top rail of the Pack 'N Play Playard to entertain and engage your little one in the playard configuration.

The Baby Einstein Pack 'N Play Playard portable playard by Graco will visually stimulate and audibly entertain as it grows with your baby, plus Caterpillar is sure to become a fun friend for years to come.

Easy Set-Up for Naptime or Playtime
Easy to set up and take down, the Discover 'n Play features four breathable mesh sides for improved ventilation, and two wheels on the bottom that make it a snap to move the playard from room to room, or from inside to outside. It also comes with a removable, full-size bassinet that is intended for use by children under 15 pounds. Especially handy for naptime, this cozy sleeping area lets baby comfortably transition from naptime to playtime and back again, whether you're at home or in the park on a sunny day. It also offers a safe place to sleep when you're staying overnight in a hotel or at the home of family or friends.

Versatile Play Options That Grow With Your Child
One of the unique features of the Discover 'n Play is that it offers multiple play options that your child can enjoy through different stages of development. Bright colors, interesting textures, fun shapes and pretty melodies keep your child engaged and entertained, no matter which of the three configurations you choose: play mat, bassinet with toy gym, or playard with activity panel.

The 40-inch long by 28.5-inch playpen provides an enclosed play area that keeps toys and other items close at hand for baby to reach and grab. The included toy gym offers colorful hanging toys and can be attached to the top of the playard frame or used separately on the floor with a playmat. There's also a Baby Einstein Activity Panel, complete with dancing lights and classical melodies to charm and engage your child. Older babies will love that they can operate the lights and music on their own, and parents will appreciate the option of either attaching the panel to the toy gym or on the side of the playard. There's even an adorable toy caterpillar that can attach to the toy gym or be played with separately.

Pack and Play Portability
A truly portable playard like this one gives you the choice of bringing a safe and fun play system outside on warm days, over to the homes of friends for play dates, or on vacation. The Discover 'n Play boasts a true "pack and play" design so it's ready to go wherever and whenever you and your baby are. Sturdy and lightweight, it folds up with the touch of just one button, and can be stored in the included carrying bag for quick and easy transport.

The Discover 'n Play measures 28.5 x 33.3 x 20 inches (WxHxD) and measures 24.5 pounds.

About Graco
In 1942, Russell Gray and Robert Cone formed Graco Metal Products, in Philadelphia, PA. For 11 years, the firm fabricated machine and car parts for local manufacturers. In 1953, Gray left the firm, leaving Cone as sole owner. Cone decided to manufacture his own line of products, but had trouble coming up with ideas. Enter David Saint, an engineer, tinkerer, and stained glass artisan who worked for Graco. Saint, himself a father of nine, was intrigued when an associate told him how his wife would soothe their tired and cranky baby while swinging in a backyard glider swing. Acting on this inspiration, he went to the drawing board and 18 months of hard work later, the world's first wind-up infant swing, the Graco Swyngomatic, was born. Graco sold millions of Swyngomatics in the coming years, becoming one of the world's leading manufacturers of juvenile products in the process. Today, Graco is a Newell Rubbermaid company, with 1500 associates worldwide. While a half-century has brought many changes to Graco, their dedication and commitment to designing and manufacturing top-quality products remains, and continues on.

Wonderful, Colorful Product5
I received this pack n' play for a shower present this weekend and it is absolutely adorable set up. It is very colorful and the the toys are cute. It was very easy to set-up. I am not good at putting things together and it took me about 5 minutes total.
The matress comes out so you can put it on the floor with the toys overhead. It is very multi-functional.

Beautiful, colorful, fun, stimulating A++!5
The seller at Babies R Us recommended this playpen over others. I am glad I listened to him because unlike other playpens, this one has a built-in interactive light-up music panel that my daughter loves to look at. It is also very colorful and big, yet light enough to carry by myself. I also put it together within 5 minutes by myself without ever having to reference the instructions, so other mommies will like the ease and convenience of setting it up. My daughter loves the colors and dangling stuffed animals, especially the rabbit. She started smiling at the rabbit when she was 3 months old and singing to it, now she speaks to it. I believe the colors and features are responsible for her brain stimulation and advanced behavior. The only thing I wish was improved upon is the soundbox on the light-up button panel. Although I have it on the highest setting, once you close the back, it does not sound loud at all, I have a hard time listening to it especially when the a/c is on in the house or the TV is on, so I wish they could make the volume go up a little higher since I doubt my daughter can hear it. As other reviewers have said, the bassinette is a lot stronger and sturdier than other playpens' bassinettes because it attaches to the bars with reinforcements, not cheap and flimsy velcro. The mattress is soft as well, I am very happy with this playpen, now I just need to buy a 2nd one for the other grandma!!

Careful with play gym attachment!2
The play gym cross bar "baby Einstein" attachment on this product collapsed on my 3 month old! I had used it before with no problems and thought I was careful in putting it up but the clips keeping it on must have come undone and it collapsed on her. She was not hurt, but could have been if the heaviest part had falled on her. I actually like the regular pack and play part of this very much -- easy to put up, relatively light, nice primary colors -- and will continue to use that but I will not use the "baby Einsten" attachment anymore.
