A Play Yard for Babies is a
secure Place for the Baby

A play yard for babies is great for keeping your baby safe, while the parent can take a few moments to get some chores done. It is also a good place for the baby to take a nap. But remember, you still need to keep an eye on your baby. It can be used until the child is walking, about 2 years of age.

There are basically two types:
1.The traditional "playpen" is good for stationary use, but is not very portable.

2.The portable playpen folds compactly. It has wheels and can easily  be moved around.

Features to consider:

• Mesh sides allow for better supervision and ventilation
• Soft floor, preferably about 3/4 inch foam padding
• Wheels for easy movement
• Side pockets for storage of toys and other baby items
• Changing table that fits over the frame
• Built in bassinet for infants
• Toybar that entertains the baby
• Padded rail tops with durable fabric for teething toddlers

Price range is about $70-200.
