Abstract
A child's entertainment device can include a mobile/entertainment member that has a connector structure that can engage a receiving member located on a child support device. The connector structure can be formed as a button-like protuberance that engages the receiving member, which can be formed as a U-shaped aperture. The button-like protuberance is thus lockable in the U-shaped receiving member at a predetermined position while rotatable with the respect to the receiving member. In addition, the entertainment member can be removed from the receiving member by applying a force to it and moving the button-like protuberance past a slightly narrower portion and out of the U-shaped aperture. When the entertainment member is attached to the receiving member, the mobile/entertainment member and attached soft toys can spin and entertain a child. The mobile may be attached to a child support device such as a child's cradle, bassinet, swing, bouncer, or car seat, etc.
