Let’s play safe.
Graco activity centers have been designed with your child’s enjoyment in mind. It is your responsibility to ensure your baby’s
safety by following these guidelines and using simple common sense. Let’s work together to keep your baby safe and happy.
Graco is concerned about the safety of every child who uses one of our products. We know that parents and other
caregivers are equally concerned about the safety of their children. There are certain safety precautions which you must
always take to help minimize the risk that a baby using one of our mobile activity centers will be harmed. Specifically, the
parent or caregiver in charge of the baby should always follow these rules.
1. Never leave your baby unattended.
Most accidents happen to children while they are unsupervised. At a minimum, the caregiver should be in the same room
with the baby at all times keeping the baby under a watchful eye. Because a baby can propel a mobile activity center at
surprising speed and is eager to explore all sorts of potential hazards, direct and diligent supervision by the caregiver is
required at all times. If you believe proper supervision of your baby cannot be guaranteed, or that your home presents
particular dangers from which the baby cannot be adequately protected while using our mobile activity center, we suggest
that you not use this product and that you consider instead an activity center without wheels, swing, playard, or other fine

product for your baby.
2. Properly prepare your baby’s play space neutralize potential hazards.
Potential hazards in the room must be removed or guarded against before placing a baby in a mobile activity center. Keep
in mind that the mobile activity center gives the baby the ability to move around the play area much more quickly than
would otherwise be possible. That means it’s important to prepare play space by installing and using gates, removing
objects from reach, and closing doors to keep the baby away from potential hazards, such as:
Only your commitment to safety can give your child the safe, happy playtime you desire.
