As a former teacher, now SAHM of a toddler, a baby on the way, and 3 dogs, I love Figgy for two main reasons!
- Washability
- Versatility
Washability
The base pieces unzip on two whole sides, making it so easy to take covers off, wash them (all zipped and Velcroed up), and put them back on! Plus, the waterproof liners have been a LIFESAVER from drool, spilled milk, and I’m sure accidents are in my future as we begin potty training. My dogs are also frequently caught snoozing on our Figgy, so it’s nice to get a deep clean when needed! If only my real couch was that easy to clean!
Versatility
The Figgy provides opportunities for comfort, skill building, educational activities, use of imagination, and so much more! Some unique uses we’ve benefited from are: heavy work before bed (moving the pieces around to get some energy out), using the rectangle as a place to pull up as well as a walker (6 mo+), using felt pieces on the Figgy to learn colors, shapes, fruits/veggies, etc. (18mo+), a train, a classic slide, tunnels, and forts, and of course it’s our favorite reading spot every day!
Our Figgy has been used daily since we bought it when my son was 6 months old! It is one of the best purchases we’ve made for our son and it’s grown with him! I can’t wait to see how it continues to serve our growing family!
