Your little one is growing up fast, from reaching out to grab their favourite toy to rolling over on their playmat, it won’t be long before they’re getting up to mischief! You might find yourself starting to wonder whether now is the right time to buy a playpen. A playpen is an easy-to-assemble structure that allows you to create a safe space for your baby to enjoy playing freely. This can help keep your little one safe from harm and away from any hazards in the home. Now, some people don’t like the idea of their baby or toddler being cooped up in a playpen, which is great if they’re happy to babyproof their entire home and allow their little one to go wherever they please. If you’re confident you can make your entire home safe for your little one then you probably don’t need a playpen. The reality is that we’re only human, and keeping watch over a baby at all times is hard work! Why not treat your little one to a lovely playpen to help take some of the weight off your shoulders.

While a playpen is not an essential like a cot or pram, it can certainly be very useful. A playpen allows you to create a safe space for your baby to explore freely. Playpens have been very popular over the years, and a “playpen baby” will learn and develop no differently to a child who had free rein of the house.

In no time at all, you’ll have a happy playpen baby of your own, getting up to mischief in the safety of their playpen!
A playpen is suitable for babies aged 6 months and over. Ideally, you should start with a gentle introduction to help them get used to the space when your baby is around 4 months old and before they become mobile. For younger babies, we recommend a wooden playpen made from safe and non-toxic materials. A wooden playpen will also be sturdy enough to see your baby into toddlerhood.
Start by ensuring your playpen is made with non-toxic paint and materials in accordance with European regulations. Whether your playpen is made from wood, plastic or fabric, check closely for any loose or faulty parts that look like they could harm your little one. Choose a manufacturer you trust and check reviews from other parents for added peace of mind. If you’re short of space, you might want to choose a foldable playpen. A foldable playpen also offers the added benefit of being able to be packed up and taken on trips or to visit relatives.
