My MIL bought it for LO for his first birthday. He is too busy to sit and play with it. However, he will try and drag it around the room during "toddler feats of strength." </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-not-a-fan-of-zany-zoo#post-1208371 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 11:22:03 +0000 rachiecakes 1208371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS never cared for it. He likes that type of toy at a doctor's office but could care less about the one at home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-not-a-fan-of-zany-zoo#post-1208336 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 11:09:22 +0000 dolphin 1208336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: omg she is addicted to her fs table. she plays with it daily and loves chewing on the phone. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-not-a-fan-of-zany-zoo#post-1207944 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 08:48:09 +0000 MsLipGloss 1207944@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@dolphin: We have the FP table too . . . she spends more time at the FP table, but she also will rotate between the 2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-not-a-fan-of-zany-zoo#post-1207607 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 22:32:54 +0000 MrsRcCar 1207607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't even heard of the toy. N has so many toys, his favorite is pretty much anything that makes music. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-not-a-fan-of-zany-zoo#post-1207599 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 22:24:34 +0000 dolphin 1207599@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Twine: she is hilarious! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-not-a-fan-of-zany-zoo#post-1207596 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 22:23:37 +0000 dolphin 1207596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ya I'm actually thinking of returning it. She will probably enjoy more when she's older but I don't want it taking up space if she's just gonna ignore it. She prefers to play with her fisher price musical table! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-not-a-fan-of-zany-zoo#post-1207412 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 19:58:12 +0000 googly-eyes 1207412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We don't have one. They look like something LO would play with but no more than her other toys. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-not-a-fan-of-zany-zoo#post-1207396 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 19:48:11 +0000 SAHM0811 1207396@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have done well without that toy! My kids have played with it at friends' houses and in waiting rooms... It doesn't interest them too much. Starting at around 2-3, they are more into imaginative play toys... Play kitchen, dress-up costumes, etc... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-not-a-fan-of-zany-zoo#post-1207343 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 18:59:02 +0000 sorrycharlie 1207343@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lemondrop: the price is insanity. a friend sold me hers for $15! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-not-a-fan-of-zany-zoo#post-1207302 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 18:16:35 +0000 Mrs. Twine 1207302@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@dolphin: @lemondrop: She is a hoot. And she is very funny with other toddlers if they don't talk back to her or respond the way she expects them to. She kept telling her friend, D, who has the Zany Zoo, "You use that. Lie-lie no prefer it." Usually he wouldn't respond so she would try to march him over to it and move his arms so he would be touching it. "Like that. Use it like that, D. YOU use it." And then she'll look at me like, "Toddlers. I just don't know what to do with them!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-not-a-fan-of-zany-zoo#post-1207298 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 18:13:32 +0000 shinymama 1207298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have one and he recently started to truly play with it {at 14 months}. Before that he essentially ignored it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-not-a-fan-of-zany-zoo#post-1207228 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 17:11:08 +0000 lemondrop 1207228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We don't have one, I've never found one for a price that I wanted to spend the money on (or figure out where the heck to store it!). Believe it or not from the reviews here, we have survived without one ;) I'm sure it's worth it's weight in gold though if it keeps your kiddo occupied for a stretch of time. </p> <p>@Mrs. Twine: I just love her! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-not-a-fan-of-zany-zoo#post-1207215 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 16:51:25 +0000 MarieJ 1207215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got ours when dd was close to 11 months and she wasn't all that into it. She's slowly coming around to it at 12 months, haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-not-a-fan-of-zany-zoo#post-1207202 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 16:39:35 +0000 dolphin 1207202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Twine: she doesn't prefer it...haha! so cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-not-a-fan-of-zany-zoo#post-1207104 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 15:19:53 +0000 Mrs. Twine 1207104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lorelei could have cared less at all ages up to now (so from late babyhood at around 7 months up until 19 months). She just doesn't get the appeal. We don't have one, but a good friend does. Lorelei always tells her son that he can use it. She, "doesn't prefer it." Ha ha ha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-not-a-fan-of-zany-zoo#post-1207092 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 15:02:39 +0000 sorrycharlie 1207092@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO got it at the same age, and likes it more now (13.5m). She liked the sides earlier on but now understands the top. She also tries to shake it and push it which gives me a heart attack..I just envision her breaking a tooth on it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-not-a-fan-of-zany-zoo#post-1207090 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 15:00:11 +0000 MsLipGloss 1207090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is becoming more and more of fan . . .she is 14 months now, and we got it for her for her 1st birthday. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-not-a-fan-of-zany-zoo#post-1207086 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 14:58:21 +0000 dolphin 1207086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just got DD a Zany Zoo activity cube but she doesn't seem to be that interested in it. She's 10.5 old. Maybe she will like it more when she's older? Anyone have a LO that wasn't a fan either?Seems like everyone LOVES it on HB! </p>
