A beautiful wooden baby gym that offers a minimalist alternative for parents who would prefer to avoid brightly coloured plastic by combining neutral colours and soft textures.
What's on the box
The Little Goose Baby Gym is a classic-looking gym that will grace any nursery or living room. Made of sturdy wood, it comes with three soft toys that have different textures for your baby touch and feel. The Bee has a small mirror on her tummy, Little Goose rattles and the Flower's leaves are crinkly. It's just brilliant for promoting hand-eye coordination and stimulating their senses during floor time play.
First impressions of the Little Dutch Little Goose Baby Gym
Real World Reviews
Hear from one of our parent reviewers Sally, who tested the Little Dutch Little Goose Baby Activity Gym
"My first impressions of the baby gym is it's very aesthetically pleasing. I love the way it's been designed, and the colours used would look lovely and fit in any household. It's a lovely solid design, and was very easy to put together. I love the soft toys that hang from the top of the baby gym, I knew that my baby would love looking at the toys. They are also close enough for him to look at, but just far enough out of reach for him to not be able to pull it over. It's very light, which means it’s easily portable from room to room, which is definitely a bonus with a baby. I would be able to carry my baby and also pick the toy up when moving around."

"My first impressions of the Little Dutch Little Goose Baby Gym was that it was a lovely looking play gym. I love the fact the frame is wooden and the base is a pastel colour however I was worried that Albie wouldn't be interested for long compared to other play gyms he's used. There wasn’t bright colours or any black and white to keep them stimulated bar a little mirror on one of the toys. I feel that the cost for this play gym for what you get is outrageous and that you're paying for a brand and also the 'look' despite my baby not being that interested in it."
- Georgia
"Beautiful design! I love the quality and craftsmanship and the fact that it’s not plastic is a big win! I immediately fell in love with the hanging toys, the materials used again are gorgeous quality and feel really well made and durable. This product is definitely my personal style, minimal and Scandi and goes really well with our nursery aesthetic. As the parent picking the toys at the moment, this is exactly what I would choose. Really easy to assemble which was a pleasant surprise. Really like the gender neutral colour scheme - would make a great baby shower gift."
- Sally
Did the Little Dutch Little Goose Baby Gym keep your baby stimulated and entertained?
Very entertained
"He loved looking at the different toys and also the different colour on the base of the legs." - Olivia
"Albie wasn't that interested in this baby gym. He was entertained for a little bit with the three hanging toys however it didn’t last long before he got bored and wanted to play on something else."
- Georgia
"Yes, she really enjoyed playing the toys, handling them and exploring the different sensory elements - in-particular the little goose rattle and crinkly wings and the mirror on the bee."
- Sally
Would you recommend the Little Dutch Little Goose Baby Gym?
Yes
Yes - I would absolutely recommend this baby gym to other parents. It keeps baby entertained, is built well and looks very stylish.
- Olivia
No
Personally no I wouldn't recommend to parents - for the price of it and the fact it didn't keep Albie entertained for long compared to the other play gyms out there. [Also] the value for money - it 100% wasn't worth the money and Albie got bored after 5 minutes.
- Georgia
Yes
Yes, I love the quality and craftsmanship of the activity gym and aesthetically it fits really well with our decor. It would be really nice if it came with a mat in the same colour as the legs.

Reviewer recommendations
iCandy Recommends
Our review panel loved the minimal aesthetic of the Little Dutch baby gym and the high quality and natural feel of the materials used. The hanging toys offer different stimulations, from a rattle sound to a crinkle touch. Whilst the colours of the gym are aesthetically pleasing and mean parents won’t have to compromise on their interior design style, they are not the most stimulating for babies. As such, two of our parent testers felt that this activity gym perhaps won’t have the longevity they would hope for given the price.
