Bright Starts Petals and Friends Activity Gym- For Your Li’l Valentine {Giveaway}

What’s pink, flowery, and musical, and the perfect gift for your littlest Valentine? The Bright Starts Petals and Friends Activity Gym!

Why we love the Petals and Friends Activity Gym:
♥ It’s pretty- from the vibrant colors to the adorable animals
♥ It’s musical- the plush bird plays jingles just by being shaken by baby hands
♥ It comes with a mirror (babies love this), teethers, and rattling or musical toys

Bright Starts Petals and Friends Activity Gym

♥ It’s great for baby’s tummy time, playing on their back, or just a general play area to sit in
♥ It’s a cute Valentine-themed gift for a little girl

pretty activity gym

Petals and Friends Activity Gym Musical Bird

bright starts activity gym

Petals and Friends tummy time playmat

The Petals and Friends Activity Gym features a bunch of toys to entertain baby, including a colorful plush bird that plays a song every time it’s shaken or kicked, bright rattles, teething/mouthing toys, and a safe mirror for your baby to have fun looking at their reflection. If you want to remove the toy bar so baby can play sitting up, the colorful playmat is padded and offers an area for baby to play safely. It’s also a play may for tummy time- the colorful mat and the detachable mirror and toys can be used to entertain baby while he’s on his tummy for 15 minutes a day.

Win it! Bright Starts has kindly offered to give a reader of Penelope’s Oasis a Bright Starts Petals and Friends Activity Gym for their little Valentine. To win, tell me about the little Valentine who would get this flowers and music activity gym.
