It is generally accepted that exposure to a multitude of visual, audio and physical stimuli during the early stages of development can enhance the learning capability of a child throughout life. Thus, numerous activity centers have been developed in order to stimulate and sharpen a developing child's physical and cognitive capacities. Typically these activity centers provide a variety of toys for visual and physical interaction specifically designed to hone the child's hand-eye coordination, range of motion, familiarity with animals, shapes, alphabet characters, numbers, and the like.
When not sleeping, small children often become easily bored or restless during lengthy plane or vehicle rides. Thus, many activity centers have been made portable and readily attach to various objects such as strollers, child carriers, car-seats, cribs, and the like to entertain and/or educate the child during such instances. However, none of the prior art teaches or suggests attachment of activity centers to the caregiver such that the child is entertained and learning while being safely held by or in close proximity to an adult. This arrangement can be especially advantageous in situations where an adult must hold the child on their lap or in close quarters for extended periods of time, such as on a plane, automobile car seat, train, boat, in a restaurant, and the like.
