Tummy Time: Safari

The BubsNest Verdict

Parents overwhelmingly recommend the Tummy Time: Ocean book, praising its bright, detailed illustrations and fold-out format that keeps babies entertained and engaged during tummy time. Many note how the mirror at the end delights little ones. A few caution that the board pages may not hold up as well to enthusiastic chewing or handling compared to thicker cardboard, and one or two wished the book was a bit larger. Overall, it seems to be a hit for strengthening neck and upper body muscles in a fun, interactive way.

Loved It

Parents overwhelmingly recommend the Tummy Time: Ocean book, praising its bright, detailed illustrations and fold-out format that keeps babies entertained and engaged during tummy time. Many note how the mirror at the end delights little ones. A few caution that the board pages may not hold up as well to enthusiastic chewing or handling compared to thicker cardboard, and one or two wished the book was a bit larger. Overall, it seems to be a hit for strengthening neck and upper body muscles in a fun, interactive way.

What parents love

Engaging designParents love the fold-out concertina format that allows the book to be spread out in front of babies, as well as the vibrant, detailed ocean scenes that captivate their attention.
Mirror featureThe mirror at the end of the book is a big hit, letting babies see their own reflection and delighting them during tummy time.
Stimulating visualsThe bold, contrasting colours and variety of sea creatures help stimulate babies' developing eyesight and keep them focused.

Worth knowing

SizingA couple of parents wished the book was slightly larger to better suit older babies and toddlers during tummy time.
DurabilityWhile generally durable, a few note the board book pages may not hold up as well as thicker cardboard to repeated chewing or handling.
PortabilityThe fold-out concertina design, while great for tummy time, can make the book a bit bulky to transport compared to a standard board book.

Best for

  • Newborns and young infants during tummy time
  • Babies and toddlers who love ocean animals and seeing their own reflection

May not suit

  • Older babies and toddlers who may outgrow the size and need a larger book
  • Parents looking for an ultra-durable board book that can withstand heavy chewing

Tips from parents

Getting the Most Out of It

Spread the book out on the floor during tummy time to encourage babies to lift their heads and engage with the visuals.

Safety Note

Monitor young babies closely during tummy time to ensure they don't accidentally cover their faces with the fold-out pages.

Shopping Tip

Consider buying a slightly larger book in the series if you have an older baby or toddler who may need more space during tummy time.
