Personally, when I saw this online I thought it look a tad orange, but I read somewhere else that the photo didn't do its color justice.They we're right.It's a bit more tan, and it's simply beautiful.I ordered this one over the pink one for my little girl with hopes of using it again later down the road whether or not we have a boy or another girl, and I really think it's perfect either way -certainly not floo-flooy, but neither does it make my girl look like a boy.Origianlly, I ordered it when my baby was two weeks old, and I was quite disappointed when month after month it didn't arrive.Eventually, I just gave up hoping it would get here in time to fit her and figured I'd just have it for baby number two.However, over four months after ordering it it arrived, and on the packaging it came in it said that it's actually for ages 6-18 months.So, I guess my daughter will get to wear it after all, though it's summer with that age range next fall and winter will do.I would think that it's fine for younger babies too, and I suspect that the reason why it give the age range starting at six months is because of how it's soooo cozy it could maybe pose a suffocation risk to newborns.That said, even if it had came closer to when I ordered it I would have still used it, just under close supervision of course.
Anyhow, I don't know what was up with the shipping taking so very long; maybe they have it in stock now since I finally got mine.At any rate, if you want this you should probably order a couple months in advanced.Oh and by the way, honestly I wanted to get the pink one to have it all girly and such, but I knew it was more practical to get the unisex one.Now, if someone offered to get me the pink one too, I'd tell them no thanks.But I'd certainly take another carmel one.(What's wrong with a back up, right?)
:)
P.S.One last bit: if you're thinking of using this as a snug swaddling kind of thing, it won't work.Well, maybe for older and big babies, but it just seems kind of too loose for that to me.
........So, it's been a little while since I first wrote this review, and on second thought I wouldn't quite give it 5 stars.The reason being is that my baby, even though she's on the smaller/shorter end, by eight months could not fit it anymore.There's no way they should recommend this for the 6-18 month range like they do.I'd say 2-6 months is more like it.

This mobile is one of the few I found that has the animals facing down toward the baby.She is smiling and cooing at it every morning.
My son loves this dog.He likes to play with the taggies, and he likes to roll the dogs belly.He loves the little balls inside the belly.
I have Pooh, Eeyore and Piglet that I bought from Target maybe a year ago.Those are all Disney brand, apparently as this one is, but this Tigger is nowhere near as nice and good quality as those.I should have known better by the eyes too, mine don't have white, just brown stitching, looking very classic.The fur on Tigger isn't as plush, I can see fabric when I push the fur aside, whereas the others are SO plush and soft, very thick fur.The others all have corduroy paws, which is a nice touch, Tigger does not.I could go on but I won't.I'm still happy with my purchase because it completes my set, it's a close enough match that my 2 year old doesn't care.
I thought this toy would jingle when it was knocked over and then come back up again, encouraging my daughter to reach and grab.Well, the toy doesn't jingle.The toy sounds like there is a single bell buried in the belly and you have to shake the toy very hard to hear the noise.The starfish hat doesn't squeak, and the ball doesn't come back up again.However, my daughter (now 3 months adjusted age) likes looking at the octopus face and the octopus arms are just the right size for her tiny hands to grab onto.She can pull the toy around and it is light enough for her to move easily.
My 2 girls just loved this toy!! And with being due in a few weeks I am going to buy another one. It holds up great in the wash even after over a year of washings. And if you have a Taggie crazy baby like mine were i'm sure he/she will just love this too!!
Ignore all the bad reviews.The toy has a switch in the back by the batteries.When you receive the toy it is in demo mode- loud as it is intended to be heard over the noise of screaming children in a store.Take it out of demo mode into play for quieter play or turn it to glow only for quiet crib play.It is clearly an improvement over the old model as it is easy to squeeze and you have the option of music!
