How many balls are needed to fill the playpen?

600. That is the recommended amount, and that recommendation was exactly correct. My one-year-old grand-daughter loves the ball pit. So does my three-year-old grand-daughter. Recommend purchasing the foam alphabet/numbers mat to go under the pit for safety's sake.

We have about 300-400 right now and it's about halfway filled, maybe a little more.

I bought a pack of 500 of the 3" balls from Amazon My Balls by CMS Pack of 500 pcs Jumbo Size 3.1'' Crush Proof Ball Pit Balls - Standard Home Grade, Phthalate Free, BPA Free, non-PVC, non-Recycled Plastic and filled the playpen perfectly. These balls were much larger size so you will need less number of them, and they are perfect for my 18 months old grand daughter.

I believe it says 600. I put 200 in mine and it just covers the floor of it. I ordered another 400 so we'll see if that helps.

I purchased 3 of the playpens and am happy with them. I do not use the door panel of the playpen and use snaps to fasten to the corners of the door side of the crate. Very easy to do. The crates I use are the portable metal wire show crates.

It's just a sheet. We filled it completely with balls (800) the balls offer plenty of "padding"

not sure what kids' tennis ball sizes are, but it should pick up at least 36 regular sized balls - I usually keep 24 balls in it and it's has room for more. If kids' sized tennis ball are a different size than standard size ( larger or smaller ) then they may not fit through the bottom pick-up or fall through, which defeats the purpose of this item.

The sacks do not come filled. You have to buy the sand seperately and fill them. Enjoy!

A couple hundred to make a decent one. I have don't have enough cover the bottom and I probably have around 50 in mine. My kids don't care. They have a blast in this. I can fit 4 kids in there!

No balls are included. We bought a set of 200 balls and while it basically only covers the bottom of the pit our 2 kids LOVE it!

I can't tell you exactly since I threw the box away but it didn't look like a full size playpen. It was prob no more than 6in x 6in x 4 ft (if that big)

Just to reiterate, takes a lot of balls to fill. We bought 1000 and it is still no where near full. It covers the bottom, but is not full like a regular ball pit.

I'd say no. Better to get at least 2. I used my bag of 100 (+ the 15 balls I already had), in a blow-up Doc Mcstuffins "ball pit". They are only 2 layers thick and a pack n play is much bigger.

No way, 100 of these small balls barely covering half the pack n play's floor. I returned these and bought 150 of the 3" Pit balls My Balls by CMS Pack of 150 pcs 3.1'' Jumbo Size Crush Proof Plastic Balls in 5 Bright Colors - Phthalate Free BPA Free, Perfect amount for a Pack 'n Play which covers the pack n play with 2 layers of balls. A perfect amount, and cost much less than 200~300 of these smaller balls.

No, I had to purchase two 200 packs from Toy R Us the day of party for the pool without water to fill up the pool. I only used 300 balls for 5 kids but my son by himself I use 500 balls to cover the bottom plus extras. 200 balls are at least to cover the bottom and few to play with in the pool.

There is plenty of room inside the playpen for 2 small dogs to play and run around in, so you should be fine.

My daughter-in-law used a similar size pool (round) and filled it with plastic balls and I want to say she used about 100-200, of you want to fill it up. Her pool was a little smaller now that I think about it. Fun for her 3 little boys and friends.

I used my alphabet floor mat. So it should be 6 feet by 6 feet the play pen sits on top of the mat on the edge. Hope that helps.

There are four. I ended up with (4) number 3 balls. I wrote the seller and never got a response. Buy with caution.
