Convenient Changing Station
Summer Infant has included one of the top changers. Unlike other changer attachments that tend to tilt and cause children to roll to one side, the clips that secure this changer to the playard frame keep this one flat. The materials are easy to wipe clean. This changer is perfect for parents of all heights. Some inset changers make it difficult to change because the parents have to lean over to reach their little ones, but the Summer Infant changer rests on top of the playard. The changer flips out of the way so parents can get their little ones in and out of the bassinet or playard.
Adorable and Functional Fabric
The neutral fabrics in shades of brown and greens, with lion and monkey characters, are ideal for any nursery or living room. The playard includes a toy bar with three coordinating removable stuffed animals, and the lion and monkey stuffed toys are adorable. The mesh sleeper sides are a benefit for you and your little one; the fabric provides increased ventilation and air circulation and allows parents an unobstructed view of their baby from any angle.
Highly Portable
At only 30 pounds, this playard is easy to move. It collapses to fit into a durable travel bag for convenient carrying and compact storage. Taking the playard from room to room in each house is easy with wheels. Once you’ve found the perfect location, the wheels lock to keep the playard in place.
Attention to Detail
A parent organizer tray gives you three divided compartments, perfect for keeping diapers, wipes, cream, lotion and more within arms’ reach. A battery-operated music attachment plays four different songs, two nature sounds, and one womb sound replica to help calm or entertain little ones. There are three different volume levels, and a 20-minute shut-off timer to preserve battery life.
