Manhattan Toy Wimmer-Ferguson Learning Cube Multi-Sensory Soft Baby Activity Toy

I love manhattan toys. The monochrome makes it attractive for younger babies (when they are little, looking at stuff is their 'playing'). And the different pictures give you a talking point. They are easy to handle as the baby gets older (cube and pyramid) and light enough for baby to pick up and doesn't hurt if they drop it on their head. Great later on too as the ball encourages crawling and the other shapes can be the start of building block. Very good value for money since their uses extend different stages for your baby.

I bought this for my then 2-week old baby and at 9 weeks he is still engaged with this mobile. It is such an incredibly simple design and very simply made, but it holds his attention in his carry cot when waking or trying to self-soothe during day-time naps. We always take it along too when out for lunch or on slightly longer car journeys as it can attach easily to the car seat handle. I would love to ask the company making these to please make one that moves automatically as my little one loves it, particularly when I spin it and he can see all the moving shapes and patterns. For the price I don't think you will find a nicer mobile for a newborn and young infant. Great!

This has proven to be one of the best baby toys we have. Great for newborns because of the black and white, can be clipped anywhere. We fold the buggy with it still attached, and it never gets crushed. When we took our baby travelling for six weeks (crazy I know), we hung it on planes and trains. It spins beautifully if there is a breeze.

Nice idea got a few moments peace and quiet from it. Cards to tend to drop out every now and again but the little fella just had something to play with when it did.

The theory behind this is that young babies are stimulated, but not over-stimulated by black and white images. This is a clip on mobile which can be put on car seat or pram or even added to another toy - bouncy chair or baby gym.The images help the baby to zone out to the background noise and allow them to focus on that image.We had a mobile of this and a display chart thing in the car. Both were utterly amazing, we found our small baby quickly could become very over-stimulated and then couldn't settle to sleep as she had information overload, she then cried so much she got windy and it was a horrible vicious circle. The black and white images really really helped her to settle. I have bought this as a gift for someone. I hope by giving it I am not only giving a useful item, but also giving the gift of more sleep for the parents!!!

Our baby loves this mobile, he has just started smiling and smiles. Every time I put this up. It holds well on the car seat, pram and other places with the peg style clip on top. It seems nice and sturdy as it has survived my 4 and 2 year old playing with it which is quite the test!

Fabulous product - has grown with our little one from birth to 8 months (and I've no doubt beyond). Have also bought for all family and friends babies too - a winner every time. They are really engaging and still entertain my little one - her favourite is playing ball with the sphere, looking at 'mr fox' on the pyramid and the face on the cube. Fantastic design, extremely well thought out with the mix of colours, textures and patterns - a real winner.

Bought this for my son when he was about a month old and it soon became his favourite mobile. Now 10 weeks old, he finds it fascinating and spends hours looking at it. It keeps him amused no end, he has even started trying to bat at the disks. It's a very simple design, and easy to change the disks round. Would definitely recommend!Also been very impressed with the other Wimmer-Ferguson toys we have, inspired products for stimulating young babies.
