Baby Products Reviews of Fisher-Price Rainforest Peek-A-Boo Waterfall Soother
Customer Review: Fun toy for babies
Summary: 4 Stars
Our 6 month old loves this toy. As he is still co-sleeping with us, we haven't tried it in his crib to help him sleep yet. But he is fascinated by the moving animals and the soft music. Customer Review: Newborn Approved!
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this as a suggestion from my mother-in-law. At first I was skeptical because I'm not usually a big fan of battery-operated/electronic baby items but this one is a gem! I have a 5-day old baby and he really seems to respond to it. Although he is not yet sleeping in his crib we give him a little "rainforest" time each day in it. He instantly calms down when the rainforest sounds come on. We haven't tried the music or lullabies on him yet but they sound a lot better than I thought they would and am excited to see how he likes them.
I also like the auto shut-off feature which will save battery life. BTW-it comes with batteries which I thought was a bonus. So far this product really is a "soother" as it claims. I would recommend this to other parents.
Customer Review: Cute crib soother with many options
Summary: 4 Stars
My son had issues falling asleep since 10 weeks and continues to rely on a crib soother or mobile at 8 months old. Compared the the FP Aquarium ones, I think this one is much more interesting and creative. I love the fish and bubbles! The light can be too bright when he's fairly drowsy after the middle-of-the-night feeding so I use music only, and thankfully there is a very low volume setting. Sure wish the music/motion/lights could be longer than 6 minutes as I often stand rocking him while watching it for almost that length of time! And having to lean over to reset it while holding onto a crying (sometimes arching) heavy baby can be scary. To have an option of setting a timer (eg. 6 - 15 - 25 min) for the 3 modes would be perfect. Or a remote would be helpful but this always jacks up the price, and it means potentially disturbing the baby when resetting by remote. Fortunately, his sleep issue is getting better and haven't had to reset the timer. We had a very old model of the FP aquarium that ran for 20 min and when he was younger, I had to reset at least once on many occasions! That always disrupted his falling asleep.
The music isn't annoying. I was worried the rainforest sound would drive me nuts as it's on for all 3 modes but it doesn't bother me at all.
Have only had it for 3 weeks, used 1-2 times daily. Haven't changed the batteries it came with yet. Hopefully batteries will last another 3 weeks??
Another small "complaint" is that the on/off switch is way to accessible for my baby. He sees me pushing it so he tries to get at it and sometimes succeeds in turning it off! And he doesn't know how to turn it back on reliably so that defeats the soothing purpose! Fortunately, I think it's happened only when I'm still in the room.
A better timer would have given it 5 stars! (even if it drained the batteries faster. A sleeping baby is far more valuable than the cost of batteries!)
Customer Review: My baby loves it !
Summary: 5 Stars
My friend got this soother for my daughter when she was 2 month old. We started use it right away. My baby loves to watch the moving animals,and seems like she really enjoy the sound. It is a little bright, but it does not bother her a lit a bit. The battery last very long and we use it about 5-7 times a day. Now she is 5 month old, and she still love it. Highly recommend. Customer Review: she loves this!
Summary: 5 Stars
We bought this primarily because we both loved the rainforest theme, and got a few other items from the series. Luckily, my baby loves it. She has loved it since she was a week old! Its so comforting to her. She loves to stare at the moving animals. Now that she is getting older, she also loves to press the on-off button all by herself.
I like the volume level options and that the batteries last a few months. Alos, the music is not obnoxious, I actually love it! I think this was definitely a great buy. I would absolutely recommend it.
