Baby Products Reviews of Lamaze Play and Grow Jacques the Peacock Take Along Toy
Customer Review: Jacques is part of the family!
Summary: 5 Stars
Jacques the Peacock was listed in the most popular gift items in the Amazon baby registry so when I was creating my registry I made sure to add it - it was actually the only toy I had on there. Sure enough it was gifted to me during my baby shower and so Jacques has been with my son since birth. Even as a newborn my son was so attracted to him as he quieted in his crib when I would place Jacques by him. At first, I was showing my son the backside of this toy because it was all black and white with the body being red-Seth loved it! Jacques has been with Seth now for 9 months-a pal through the diaper changes, a companion on the car rides, a passenger in the stroller, a comforter at night night time. Seth continues to look for him when we ask "where's Jacques?"
Our peacock friend is sturdy enough to endure the pulling, biting and daily adventures of his baby friend. His color is vibrant, he has different textures and sounds all attractive to babies. I would gift this to other expectant moms as he has brought so much joy to my little one.
Customer Review: Grows with your baby
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this for my daughter when she was just two weeks old because she was mesmerized by black and white patterns, and this guy has several different b&w designs on the back of his "feathers." She loved to stare at them, and would often focus on his bright red bottom. I loved that the link would clip onto her baby gym so that we could dangle him above her. Then, once her color vision improved, she was fascinated by the bright colors on the front side of Jacques' feathers and began to reach for him and swat at him.
Now that she's four months old, she really likes the different fabric textures, and enjoys grabbing at the feathers and touching them. The link is still really useful, because it allows us to clip him to her carrier or diaper bag. That way, he's always handy, but can't get lost like a few other unfortunate (and missed!) toys have.
Overall, Jacques has held up well as my daughter has grown from a tiny newborn to a curious infant. I'm really pleased that she continues to find new ways to play with him.
Customer Review: Our 4 month old daughter chews the heck out of the "feathers"-loves it!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I used the have this dangling from her carseat, but it is a tad large, so I relocated it to her evenflow megasaucer. She just stared at it on her carseat (she was younger then though, now she's 4 months old), but now have smaller toys for that. So have this attached to her evenflow megasaucer via the chain link toys for infants and this makes the toy easily reachable plus won't fall on the ground when she drops it..it just dangles over the side (so it stays clean). She gets so angry when this thing falls too. She loves chewing the "feathers". She just goes to town and this toy gets drenched!! Cute toy and the hook is awesome so you can attach it to anything really. I have other toys that are easily reachable on the megasaucer as well, but it seems like this is her favorite..I think it is the crinkle sound that she is drawn to. This will keep her busy in her megasaucer for a while, so I can get stuff done; she's a needy baby too. Anyways..cool toy, lots of colors and textures and you can hook to anything.Customer Review: Multi-Sensory Magic for Your Little One
Summary: 5 Stars
Jacques is just the friend to stimulate your little one's senses. The bright colors attract and maintain his attention. The small size is ideal for a little one to hold and inspect. The wings, which contain some type of crinkle, sound-producing material, encourage grasping and squeezing to develop those finger and hand muscles. The rattle encourages Baby to learn that shaking Jacques will result in a noise - teaching cause and effect. It also provides valuable physical activity to develop arm muscles. The mirrored wing allows Baby to peek at himself and to explore the wonders of self-awareness.
Jacques is imitated; I saw a similar item at the "bull's eye" store which was one-third the cost, but was also inferior in quality. I certainly would not recommend purchasing it since it did not seem to be as well-made as Jacques. If you are going to purchase a toy for an infant you love, stick with the Lamaze Jacques the Peacock. You won't be disappointed and neither will Baby.
Customer Review: New Addition to the Family-Baby's BFF
Summary: 5 Stars
I have NEVER written a review about a product before, but I must sing my praises of Jacques the Peacock. This was given to me at my Baby Shower and was show to my daughter at 7 weeks. Needless to say, she ADORES her new friend. Jacque is hard for a baby to grip at such a young age, but within 3 weeks, she was pulling his feathers and chewing on them on a daily basis. My husband and i dont leave home without him and he EASILY clips to your diaper bag or carseat! His bright crinkly feathers, mirror, and squeaker really appeal to her! In fact, she loved him SO MUCH that we also got her Freddie the Firefly and Dee Dee the Dragon. So far, she loves all 3, but since adding the other 2, she can't decide which one to stare, laugh, and talk to! The Lamaze products are PERFECT for an infant to learn and grow with and make tummy time much more enjoyable. I can't say enough about her new friends! What a great addition to our new family, these products are adored!
