Do you have a pack and play bassinet in your home? If so, how often do you use it? One of the most common mistakes people make is using their pack and play for too long.
This can lead to injury or an awkward trip to grandma’s house when she doesn’t want it anymore. We’re here to help! Below are step-by-step instructions on how to break down a pack and play with a bassinet.
Steps on how to break down a pack and play with bassinet
Step 1. Unfold the Pack ‘n Play, then remove the mattress.
Step 2. Lift on each side of the centre support bar until it clicks in place underneath both sides of your Graco Pack ‘n Play (make sure you don’t push too hard as this bar will break).
Step 3. Once you have lifted on both sides of the centre support, lift each side straight up until they are locked into place. This may take a little bit of wiggling but it should do it!
Safety Precautions
You should never leave your child unattended while using this product; only use it for children who are unable to climb out and sit unassisted.
Always make sure the metal pegs that hold mattress pads line up before folding, place folded Graco Pack ‘n Play next to how it was originally packaged or in a safe dry place away from children’s reach! Do not ever leave your child unattended while they’re inside of the Graco Pack ‘N’ Play bassinet.
Make sure all metal pieces line up properly when folding and always place the folded Graco Pack ‘n Play next to how it was originally packaged or in a safe, dry place away from children’s reach!
Graco Pack n’ Play Bassinet Folding Instructions:
Step 1. Lie your product flat on its side. Remove mattress pad and set aside.
Step 2. Lift the release button by pushing down with your knee until you hear a click. This will unlock the frame so that legs can be removed easily for more compact storage if desired.
Step 3. You do not have to unsnap all four of them at once, simply start removing one leg then move onto another after each is unlocked into an upright position; this way they stay clean since there is less contact with the ground.
Step 4. Once all legs are in an upright position, grasp each leg and pull straight up; they should pop out of place fairly easily. If this is not happening, check to make sure that the release button was pushed down into a locked position before attempting to remove it from its slot (you can reinsert them if you wish).
Snapback together by inserting each leg until it clicks securely; test how firm your connection feels when trying to move one part around relative to another – there should be very little movement between parts at any point during these steps!
You may need someone’s help for this step or simply lean against something such as a wall while doing so yourself it requires some strength on your part.

Steps on How to assemble a Graco Pack N Play with changing table:
Step 1. Unfold Pack N Play all the way and remove the mattress.
Step 2. Pull up on each side of the centre bar until it locks into place underneath both sides of your Graco Pack ‘n Play (do not pull too hard as this bar will break). This step may take a little bit of wiggling*
Step 3. Once you have pulled up on both sides, lift straight upwards to lock in place. This may also take some wiggling but should do the trick!
