More Joy in Every Moment
Bright Starts exists to bring more joy to every moment. We believe a sprinkle of silly has the power to turn crazy days into kitchen dance parties. We see confetti in the chaos, and we know there’s nothing a belly laugh can’t fix. This is when the magic happens. When time stands still, and little moments turn into lasting memories.
Play to Learn
We use the power of joy to introduce babies and toddlers to important concepts and help them practice developmental skills. Meet animals, colors and numbers, exercise fine motor skills like grasping, and make LOTS of space for socio-emotional bonding. You’ll know they’re stretching in new ways – they’ll just know they’re having fun!
How do we do it?!
Giggle Machines
We create more opportunities for laughter between you and your child.
Surprise!!!
We keep kiddos ooh-ing and aah-ing with fun surprises at every turn. Hey you, peekaboo!

My nearly 3 month-old granddaughter was born nearly 2 months early, yet as soon as she was laid on this play mat, it immediately grabbed her attention, and she tried hard to get the toys hanging from the arch. It has music and a variety of items for her, and I’m very happy with how cute this mat is, and the quality, as well! For a price that was so reasonable, I was afraid it would be cheap quality, and I’m happy to report that that is definitely not the case! I recommend this!

I purchased this for my 2 month old for Christmas- I’m pretty sure I’ve had the exact same one for one of my kids before and the attic probably swallowed it. It’s super cute, easy to put together- I mean, it does what it is supposed to. I bought a pack of those baby links so I could make some of the toys dangle lower because my daughter is a tiny one.

My little girl loves this mat! Its super easy to clean and it’s a perfect size. I only have 2 complaints. The little owl that hangs from that mat stopped playing music after a month and the mat is so smooth that she can’t roll over when she tries. She just slides around. Other than that, it’s a perfect mat!UPDATEDI reached out to the company regarding the little owl and they we happy to send a replacement free of charge. Thank you so much!

We bought this for our cat and adding some of her balls that jungle and a few other cat toys. She loves it and also bats around the extra hanging ringlets. She loves it and plays with it every day. Super cute.

You can spent 3 times what this costs, and not have anything better!! This is just a darling, well made play mat and activity gym. The baby loves the musical owl, and the mirror. It is so easy to move things around, especially the mirror. and she spends some happy time kicking at the braces to make it all move. she will be grabbing for the toys soon, I am sure! It was easy to set up, and light weight to move around.

finally something that keeps her happy! I bought this thinking my daughter wouldn’t really like it for a couple months (currently 2 months old) but she loves it! she starts to get fussy so I’ll put her on this and she’s instantly happy looking at and kicking the toys (we did add a few more, the older kids couldn’t resist buying and adding more) she also loves when the older kids will lay down with her and play with her. lots of smiles from our baby girl in this one 😀

The first one I received was defective and was missing the supports at the bottom to hold the overhead bars. They replaced the item super super fast, before I even had a chance to return the first one. My daughter absolutely loves this activity mat and all of the attachments. The bold colors and noises toys keeps her busy for a good half hour if not longer.

This item is easy to put together and to clean off it is entertaining to both my infant and toddler. The pieces are detachable so they can play with them or hang them to look at. It folds up and fits nicely behind our pack and play set up so its easy to get out of the way. And easy to pop right out and use when its time. My toddler was able to take it apart somehow though. Other than that its great.

Our daughter loved this! She loved laying on it during tummy time and looking at the items on the side of it! We were able to move the toys around as we wanted as she got older as well. Once she started rolling over, she loved batting at the toys hanging down! She also loved the owl that came with it and mirror! The only downfall was that there wasn’t a way to change the battery in the owl, because she really loved listening to it! I understand why they had no way of changing it because of the hazards to the baby, but overall that’s the only thing I wish we could’ve done.

Got this for a coworker’s baby and he loved it. They said that the packaging from amazon was big and bulky but other than that everything was perfect. Their baby loved all the special dangled toys and the parents loved the colors. It’s a good size and makes a wonderful gift. I’d recommend this to other families!
