DDM HGG -- Kolcraft Sit & Step 2-1 Activity Center Review & Giveaway

**CLOSED**

I'm so excited to tell you all that I'm a Kolcraft Mom. Not just any Kolcraft mom but I'm a "walker"! What does that mean for you all?! Well it means that I'm going to be having lots more reviews and giveaways from Kolcraft coming your way!

The 1st product I want to tell you about is the Sit & Step 2-1 Activity Center! Assembly was super simple for the most part. I did have a couple issues with the legs not wanting to corroporate with me but after some elbow grease everything fit into place just fine. My only issue is that the instructions were not that easy to follow along. The pictures were so tiny and in black & white that you couldn't really tell what part they were talking about most of the time. Most of the instructions told you to look at the picture to see how it's done, so with that, it caused me to get a little frustrated at times.

Besides all that though, this is probably one of the busiest activity centers I have seen in a while. It plays music, has different shapes, colors and is very easy to assemble. It's definitely kept Kendall busy even though she can't even reach the bottom to be able to turn herself in the seat yet.

This is one piece of baby apparatus that gives parents their money’s worth. The Sit & Step starts out as an activity center for babies who can hold their heads up (at about 4 months). The center then converts to a walker for babies who are ready to take those first steps (between 9 and 12 months) or who are ready to cruise at top speed around the house.

When set in stationary mode, the Sit & Step has nine toys that both entertain and encourage emerging motor skills. It's such a cute idea that they made all the toys have an amusement park-themed activity center include a silly fun house mirror, a ball drop with slide, a ball pop, a rotating Ferris wheel rattle, a big top plastic-laminated picture book, a roller coaster animal slide, an organ squeaker, and an arched discovery center that makes music and sounds when babies activate the buttons. The base safely locks into place so even the happiest of babies can safely bounce up and down, rock from side to side, or spin without any fear of getting hurt.

((HAPPY BABY!!))

When baby is ready to take those first steps the walk-behind walker easily pops off from the top sitting area It has a wide frame and fast-rolling wheels to fully support babies who are still unsteady on their feet.

Three "AAA" cell batteries (not included) are required to power the electronic components, which I would have appreciated be included especially considering the price of the activity center.

The baby Sit & Step 2-in-1 Activity Center by Kolcraft is a wonderful entertainer and walker combination.
