Activity seats (bouncers/baby seats) provide a convenient, short-term spot when baby can't sit upright yet. They're designed for use from 4-6 months onward, but only if your baby can hold their head up and sit briefly without support.
For safety, the basic rule is: never put it on a high surface (countertop, table, shelf) — use it on the floor. Always fasten the safety strap. If baby falls asleep in it, move them to their crib immediately — never leave them in the seat for nighttime sleep.
The seat is a 15-20 minute helper when your hands are full, not a long-term sitting tool. Using it more than 30-60 minutes daily limits baby's free floor movement and can negatively affect motor development. There are also pediatric warnings that using bouncers too early or too long may increase hip dysplasia risk. Balanced use is healthiest.
