Spanning a whopping 12,700 square feet, Kidz Amaze has a massive jungle gym for bigger kids, but that doesn’t mean the toddlers and babies are left out. The soft play area for infants and toddlers has been specially designed by early childhood experts to develop infant’s gross motor skills, so you know it’s going to be all gravy. It’s tummy time a-go-go! If the weather improves there’s an outside Story Garden where kids can slide down a monster’s tongue, sail away on a pirate ship and play with giant musical chimes. Clip n Climb in Chelsea is a child (and adult) friendly indoor climbing hall with more than 20 walls of varying size and difficulty. Tots have a dedicated area called the ’Toddler Village’, along with a soft playground and a multi-sensory room.

In terms of portability, we could easily move this swing from room to room since it has a small footprint and weighs only 10 pounds. However, it doesn’t fold, so it requires some space commitment (albeit temporary). Despite this, we like that the seat rotates 360 degrees and thought it was really easy to change the incline, even though it requires two hands to do so.Note how the swing is powered. There are swings that run exclusively on batteries or plug-in power — or a combination of the two. To choose what is best for you, consider where you plan to use the swing most (in one room or on the go). Why We Like It: The swing’s Bluetooth features work well and allow you to play your own music, and there’s a mosquito net for bringing the fun outside. We also like that the height of the legs is adjustable and appreciate the overall look and feel of this swing, especially its soft, fleece seat and neutral color palette. However, it’s pretty basic in terms of features since it doesn’t play sounds and is adorned with two non-descript stars that frankly, look a little boring to us.

We don’t love the directions: The illustrations are not accompanied by any written instructions, and it’s not intuitive to figure out what the numbers on each part signify. Ultimately, we had to refer to an online tutorial video to put it together properly, which isn’t ideal, although assembly is a one-time nuisance. For the higher price tag—the MamaRoo is the priciest baby swing on our list—we’d expect easier assembly, but it’s one of the biggest names in baby gear for a reason: It grows with your baby so you’ll get more use out of it, can be controlled hands-free with the compatible app, and provides smooth side-to-side motion.

But swinging your baby in your arms for hours upon hours sounds exhausting, doesn’t it? That’s where mechanical swings come in. You can set your baby down, safely secure them into place, and let the swing do the heavy lifting.

This sprawling four-storey indoor adventure park has a reputation for providing a spectacular range of activities for children aged 1 to 12.They have SEND sessions for kids age 0 to 12 which comes with free admission for two adults and two kids, as long as one of them has SEN.

In our experience, assembling and using this swing was so intuitive that it required little to no reference to the manufacturer’s instructions. The buttons that operate the swing were self-explanatory, although we would have liked to see a simpler way to change the music rather than pushing a button to cycle through every song. When using the timer, we recommend reading the manufacturer’s instructions so that you understand how the lights correspond to the time intervals. Lennartsson, F.

In general, baby swings can be used from the newborn stage up until the baby reaches the weight limit of the swing. Many baby swings have a limit of 20 pounds, which is often the size of a 4- to 5-month-old baby, though this differs by the swing and the child. Be sure to consult the manufacturer’s instructions, and ask your pediatricians if you have additional questions about the swing’s fit.Technically this is in Kent but it’s easy to get to if you live in South London and the activities are so good, we think it’s worth a visit. Indoor playground deets: Newly opened Bouncetopia is located at the new SAFRA Choa Chu Kang and consists of 6,400 square feet of Superhero-themed play areas. At this inflatable bouncy castle indoor playground, kids can bounce to their hearts’ content on the myriad of colourful bouncy castles, get competitive at the obstacle courses and satisfy their adrenaline rush at the tallest slide that takes you into a giant ball pit (it’s fun even for adults!) We’d definitely recommend close parent supervision for younger kids, as it can get quite scary for the little ones if there are older kids jumping around. Also, be sure to wear long pants and long sleeves to protect your skin from slide burns! Where: Blue House Infant Atelier, 2 Turf Club Rd, Singapore 287988 12. The Polliwogs Photography: The Polliwogs The sleek look and feel of this swing was appealing to us, and we loved the cozy, reversible seat cushion. And in addition to being compact, with just two parts assembling it was a breeze and took only three minutes.
