This Sleep N Play Center is made of comfortable fabric and comes with detachable changing table and transport bag. As well as being a huge help for you, playpens can be great fun for your little one too. With added toys and books, a playpen can become a much-loved space that your child adores and associates with fun and play. Are playpens good for babies? Typically, toddlers and children become too old for playpens when they’ve grown large enough that they can climb out of them and risk falling and hurting themselves. When testing playpens we look at value for money, size, ability to fold and ease of assembly as well as the material the playpen is made out of.

If used correctly, playpens can be excellent for babies. They provide a secure space to place your little one for short periods, meaning you can keep your baby safe if your focus is needed elsewhere momentarily. With the right toys and play items added, playpen time can be a rewarding opportunity for your little one to play, explore and develop. Lots of our playpens are fast and easy to put up, and are portable, meaning you can take them on trips to see friends and family – ideal if their homes haven’t been made babyproof! Even better, some of our playpens double as travel cots too, meaning they act as both a safe bed and a play space when you’re away from home. When is a baby too old for a playpen?
