**Question:** Which activity center keeps baby entertained?

**Short answer:** Fisher-Price Jumping Jungle Jumperoo has the best record, with 33 of 33 parents saying their baby played happily in it. Nearly every parent who wrote about an activity center said their baby enjoyed it, so the differences among the higher-ranked picks are small. Skip Hop Baby Activity Center (30 of 30) and Baby Einstein Neighborhood Symphony Jumper (28 of 28) are right behind. Doorway jumpers and walker-style centers were left out of this ranking.

**What stands out:** Ingenuity Spring & Sprout Activity Center stands apart at 13 of 24, while every other pick sits at 97% or higher. 29% of its reviews mention boredom. Among the others, parts that break come up in 24% of Tiny Love 5-in-1 Stationary Activity Center reviews and in some Baby Einstein Neighborhood Symphony Jumper reviews.
