The Jolly Jumper Exerciser, a standalone bouncer for active babies that promotes balance, muscle strength — and most importantly, parental sanity. The seat spins around completely, and there are a half dozen stylish toys, though some testers felt that the activities didn't hold their babies' attention for very long.

While the jumper world is wide and varied, choosing an excellent entertainer doesn't have to be a struggle. Our testers liked this jumper, but some found assembly to be tricky — or, more accurately, intimidating. We purchased and tested the most impressive contenders for this roundup, focusing on ease of use, portability, quality, and fun.

The chairs are light and easy to move, meaning that they can be quickly manoeuvred to reach the patients who need them the most, and are ideally suited to the fast-paced Critical Care environment. Please note, the Jolly Jumper is sold separately, but together with this stand, it creates an unbeatable duo for active, engaging play. Designed for babies from approximately 3 months of age (when baby can hold head up with full neck support) to just before walking age. Pay special attention to the toys your baby jumper has, as this is what will stimulate your baby’s mind and keep them engaged while they play.

During your session, you’ll have the choice of either an 8×12 inch canvas print or a Baby Imprint Frame featuring a ceramic tile with impressions of one hand and one foot. We like that the fabric seat can spin 360 degrees and that it's machine washable if you let it air-dry.They have sturdy and reliable hardware and machine-washable fabric, and all components feel as though they will endure through every last bounce. At the Good Housekeeping Institute, our experts regularly review a range of kids' products, from baby gates to the year's best toys.
