The Itsy Bitsy Spider went up the water spout... This favorite nursery rhyme is now baby's favorite place to be. The toy bar features two itsy bitsy spider friends who climb up and down from a rooftop while fun sounds and the nursery rhyme plays. Baby can also watch the cat in the window rock back and forth as a mouse runs across the scene, then pops up the chimney! Other features include a three-point restraint to keep baby secure in the seat and removable toy bar for easy access to baby. Parent mode plays five songs continuously, including sung version of "Itsy Bitsy Spider." Other songs include "Little Miss Muffett," plus some original tunes. Requires 4 "D" batteries, not included.

 Cute & my baby likes it (recom 2 mo +) October 1, 2008
M. Clarke
We own 2 different bouncy seats. Both are Fisher Price - the Itsy Bitsy Bouncer & Soothe N' Play Safari Bouncer.
To quickly compare the two: the spider bouncer seemed uncomfortable for our son until around 8 weeks old. It is much larger & sits very upright - which is great now for after feedings. It is also more substantial than the Safari one - and has less spring in the seat. Although he's still rather uninterested in the toy bar (I almost always leave it removed from seat) I'm sure he'll be intrigued by it soon enough. The music is really cute & not as annoying as most - even my husband agreed. The vibration is much stronger on this seat - it rattled all of the plastic parts until the baby was about 11 lbs and weighted it down better.
I've found that having both seats is handy. We keep one upstairs & the other down. If I had to pick just one for the early weeks of a newborn, the Safari sure helped our lil one sleep & take naps. The seat has plenty of "give" and that's just what was needed to gently rock our wriggling lil guy back to sleep when he stirred. The vibration is nice - although I never leave it on for more than 10 minutes or so at a time. The Safari seat also looks really nice in photos. I seem to take a lot of pics in the seats - and the neutral backdrop works great!

 "home run" present for a three month old May 2, 2008
L. Personius (Las Vegas, NV)
I purchased the "Itsy Bitsy Bouncer" for my grandson who just turned three months old. It is not easy to recognize that a three month old really really loves his present, but let me tell you, there is no question about how happy he is when he is in the this. The seat is soft and comfortable for someone his age, the spiders are all smiles, and they move. He seems to enjoy the music, and he clearly enjoys the fact that it vibrates. My daughter has many pictures of him smiling, taken in the bouncer. She says he will "talk" to the spiders for long periods of time. He is just contented and happy in this clever, well designed toy. Whoever imagined this knows what babies enjoy most!
 Mildly amusing for baby February 17, 2008

My baby girl does not last long in this bouncer. She finds the spider interesting for a few minutes but then looks elsewhere in the room. I read some of the favorable reviews about how fascinated babies can be with the moving spiders. So I searched high and low in the stores for this bouncer. Too bad my baby is content for only up to half an hour when placed in this chair. Then the crying protests begin.
Good features:
* Lightweight and easily moveable from one room to another
* Music is hummably good and not as annoying as music in other baby gadgets
* Chair really bounces well
Missing features which would have made purchase worthwhile:
* Five-point harness: I don't care if other parents think it is unnecessary and cumbersome to use; there would be less chances of the baby falling out of the chair or making it topple if the shoulders were restrained.
* A padded insert so you can wash it when (and not if) the baby messes the chair with various fluids.
* Two or more reclinable positions. Presently the chair is a bit high but not high enough for my girl to reach the spiders. When she is able to reach the spiders, I believe she will have outgrown the chair.
* Chair seems on the flimsy side if you have a larger-weighted baby. I would not feel good about a baby weighing more than 15 pounds seated on this bouncer for safety concerns. On the other hand, I know that the chair's design is to bounce and so it has to be on the flexible side. Still one can wish for stronger materials than these thin bars that form the base of the chair.
I would have paid more dinero for the bouncer if these features were built-in. The Baby Bjorn chair almost reeled me in, but because it is rather plain and doesn't have these cute-looking spiders or something highly colorful to amuse the baby, I opted for this one. I guess Fisher-Price wanted to keep this bouncer cheap.
A lifesaver for new parents February 3, 2008

This is the only place our son would sleep for the first 3 months. The vibration soothed him and put him right to sleep. When he got older, we used our foot to manually push on the legs creating a different bouncing sensation for him and he really liked that too. The only negative I can think of is that we had a tall baby so his legs starting hanging over the edge of the bouncer at about 3 1/2 months. However, it seems most bouncers are made this way.
