a toy with balls to jump in?

[Daisy918]

I took my 1 year old to TRU today to find a cool toy for her 1st bday. Well, all she wanted to do was play in the display of basketballs! LOL (yes, I put her in there and let her...ha!)

Anyway, I was thinking that she would love something to play in w/a lot of balls. Kinda like what they used to have at Chuck E. Cheese. Does anyone make something like this?

Yes - they sell little ball pits just about anywhere. Here's a link to what's available from TRU:

They should also have them in the toy section at your regular WalMart, etc. I know I have seen them here at my Target.

I was getting an error message with this link for some reason so I'll post a couple of new links to ball pits that I found at TRU:

Or, if you have a PNP, you can just buy a bunch of balls and throw them in there (one of the links that August Mom listed had a package of 100 for $19.99). We have friends who did this, and it works great!

What a good idea! I would never have thought about that. I guess we'd need to get a toy box to do that, though, as there are so many toys in the PNP. LOL

I LOVE that idea!! When dh is mobile, I plan on using the PNP to 'contain' him when I need to do something quick. I was already worrying that he wouldn't like it and would be bored. This will be perfect!
