I've heard that. I also remember hearing during Psych class that, if you were only going to buy one toy a year for your child, an interesting mobile is the best "brain builder".

So, I think I've decided on the Garden Delight, it's not completely babyfied, it goes with the current wall color, and it doesn't look like a bottle of Pepto exploded.

Ugh - now to find a crib.

The one I got for my daughter started as a crib with an attached changing table that has drawers and shelves under it. Now that she's older, we took one of the side rails off and it's now a daybed. Later, it even converts into a full size bed. It's still got the changing table attached, but the top converted into a regular top, so it's now a dresser/nightstand type thing. I actually found this at Walmart for around $125, and it's been great and held up well. I can't remember what brand it is, but it's the same brand they sell at Babys-R-Us and other major baby stores, so it's not like it matters that it came from Walmart.

Just make sure you buy the converter kit at the same time. My brother and sister-in-law didn't realize that when they registered for their set at Toys R Us. Now they are stuck with a crib that could have been a bed.
