crib mobile

Dangling infant entertainment

A crib mobile is a hanging decorative toy suspended above a baby's crib, typically featuring dangling objects—animals, stars, shapes—that rotate slowly, often accompanied by music.

The movement and colors are meant to soothe infants and stimulate visual development: The crib mobile played a lullaby as the baby drifted off.
