Great from newborn to 6months! This was great for tummy time and once he got older, we used the piano for him to play with while learning how to sit.

Amazing for when baby starts getting mobile! Can be put in many variations to fit your needs. We also have a dog, so this is a great way to ensure there is a designated place for baby only and keep toys separate. We got another one to make it bigger.
Playpen

Get this around 4months! Helps with tummy time and sitting up. Also use it around 5 months to help baby build strength to start crawling. You can also keep it until they are a toddler!

Used this when baby was sick and congested. Great for when their nostrils are still super tiny!

This is best for when baby is a little bigger. The trick to getting the best suction is to spray nose with a little saline and wiggle the sucker around a bit when in the nostril.
