Jolly Jumpers have been used in my family pretty much since they came into existence. It's always been common to see a little baby bouncing up and down in the doorway, so I was very happy when this one was handed down to my baby girl. She loves it!

It gave her a little bit of her own independence to feel like she could move around and still have security without me holding her. I think it's also good exercise for strengthening her leg muscles.

If you don't have a doorway with molding that will support a jolly jumper, you can also get them with their own portable stand.
