Have I mentioned how much I love baby gear!? From car seats and bouncers to crib sets and swings, I love the adorable designs and the ever-changing and improving features. I’m like a kid in a candy store when I open a new piece of baby gear! The Bright Starts Sunnyside Safari Portable Swing is no exception. With it’s eye-catching colors, cute animals, and travel-friendly features, this swing is a great new addition to our baby gear line up. (Psst! No new babies are on the way at the Baugh household, so don’t get the wrong idea. I’m just baby gear obsessed AND I knew y’all would love this portable swing!)
We are an on-the-go family, especially during the summer. With Bryson, we carried the pack ‘n play with us, but it was a true hassle. All of that folding, unfolding, trying to fit it in a bag, etc. was a headache. When Bella came along, we reviewed the Bright Starts Cotton Tale Bouncer and it was wonderful. It was so easy to fold and take on the go; we used it until she outgrew it. So when I saw this portable swing by Bright Starts, I had to try it out!
Bright Starts Sunnyside Safari Portable Swing features:
As you can see, it folds compactly and stands on it’s own even when folded. It offers non-slip feet and a machine-washable cover that is easily removed. To fold, you close the seat then press in on the yellow “buttons” on both sides. There are no latches to fumble with- just grab and go. The Bright Starts Sunnyside Safari Portable Swing offers three positions for the harness so it will grow with your baby much like a car seat. Let it all the way down when you have a tiny infant and move the harness up as your child grows.

Let it all the way down when you have a tiny infant and move the harness up as your child grows.
There are six speeds to choose from and Bright Starts™ TrueSpeed™ technology keeps those speeds consistent even as baby grows. The 5-point harness ensures that you baby is safe and secure. The Comfort Recline™ seat gives you a choice of two positions, and WhisperQuiet™ operation makes this swing silent in use.
The Bright Starts Sunnyside Safari Portable Swing doesn’t come with a toy bar or music, but in my opinion, the portability is worth giving up those things. When you are on the go, there is plenty of background noise and I always have a few small toys tucked in the diaper bag.
If you are on-the-go a lot, I highly recommend this portable swing. It’s cute, travel friendly, and tough. Did I mention that Bella thought it was for her? She loves this swing and would not stay out of it. Bella is 19 months old and weighs around 25 pounds and the Bright Starts Sunnyside Safari Portable Swing held up to her!
She is dirty from head to toe in this photo, but I couldn’t leave her out. She used the swing as her own personal seat while we were outside. You can purchase the Bright Starts Sunnyside Safari Portable Swing at Walmart– in stores or online. It retails for $44.97 and I would say it’s worth every penny!

I love the portable swings. I use them all the time. I have a home daycare, and I used to take one outside with us everyday for the babies to swing in while the big kids played, but my last one finally died. 🙁 I also use them in the playroom and in the house, so I love that they are so portable.

If #3 is anything like #1 and anything near #2, they will be a swing addict so being able to bring the swing with us when we visit the in-laws or travel out of state will definitely be helpful!
Love the colors and design and I think my son would love this! I like that it folds up pretty flat and won’t take up much space when not in use.
I had a used portable swing with baby #1 and this would be wonderful for baby #2 thats on the way. We are always on the go and I am in love with this design!!!!

I had a portable swing with my son, and it was the BEST thing ever. He was very much a swing baby, and being able to take a swing with anywhere we went was a lifesaver!
I passed on the greatness, and can’t imagine not getting another one for baby 2.
I borrowed one of these a few weeks ago and loved it!!
I would keep it at home, for use around the house, but it would be so easy to pack up for on the go.
This swing is perfect!
I’m so glad that swings are getting smaller!
This would actually be a baby shower gift.
I like the Whisper Quiet operation and this would be great for a trip to a friend’s house!
