Playards are an incredible multi-purpose place of exploration and familiarity for your baby. They are designed for, as the name indicates, mobility and play. It can be a challenge to figure out which is best for your child given the plethora of options. Let’s break down the assets for 7 kinds of Pack N Plays on the market and what to keep in mind as you pick.
A playard, or Pack ‘N Play, is a portable, multipurpose item that can be used as a crib, napper, or as a safe and familiar “play yard.” Some playards come with bassinets for no additional cost.
A bassinet is also portable and primarily for sleeping. It’s excellent for newborns and babies who haven’t learned how to push up, roll over, sit up, or climb. They can also be used in your room in those early months for cosleeping. Buying both as a set is budget-friendly because babies can grow from one into the other.
