6. The foldable arm of claim 5 , wherein the support defines a recess along a length of the support and when the second member is in the deployed position, the second member is nested within the recess of the support.

7. The foldable arm of claim 6 , further comprising one or more ribs which protrude from the support within the recess, the one or more ribs configured to engage the second member when the second member is in the deployed position.

8. The foldable arm of claim 1 , wherein the second member has a proximal end and a distal end opposite the proximal end, the proximal end of the second member pivotally connected to the distal end of the longitudinal body of the central member, and the distal end of the second member includes a flange.

9. The foldable arm of claim 8 , wherein the second member includes an intermediate collar positioned a distance away from the flange.

10. The foldable arm of claim 1 , wherein, when the first member is in the stored position, a longitudinal axis of the first member is substantially parallel to, and positioned a distance away from, a longitudinal axis of the central member.

11. A foldable arm for hanging a children's entertainment assembly, the foldable arm comprising:

a central member including a longitudinal body having a proximal end and a distal end opposite the proximal end, the longitudinal body defining a recess along the longitudinal body between the proximal end and the distal end;

a first member pivotally connected to the proximal end of the longitudinal body of the central member, the first member movable between a stored position substantially adjacent to the central member and a deployed position extending away from the central member; and

a second member pivotally connected to the distal end of the longitudinal body of the central member, the second member movable between a stored position in which the second member is nested within the recess of the longitudinal body of the central member and a deployed position in which the second member extends away from the central member;

wherein, the central member selectively maintains at least one of the first member in the deployed position, the second member in the deployed position, or both the first member in the deployed position and the second member in the deployed position;

wherein the first member has a proximal end and a distal end opposite the proximal end, the distal end of the first member pivotally connected to the proximal end of the longitudinal body of the central member and the proximal end of the first member including a closing mechanism for connecting the foldable arm to another object.

12. The foldable arm of claim 11 , wherein the second member has a proximal end and a distal end opposite the proximal end, the proximal end of the second member pivotally connected to the distal end of the longitudinal body of the central member, and the distal end of the second member includes a flange.

13. The foldable arm of claim 12 , wherein the second member includes an intermediate collar positioned a distance away from the flange.

14. A foldable arm for hanging a children's entertainment assembly, the foldable arm comprising:

a central member including a longitudinal body having a proximal end and a distal end opposite the proximal end, the longitudinal body defining a recess along the longitudinal body between the proximal end and the distal end;

a first member pivotally connected to the proximal end of the longitudinal body of the central member, the first member movable between a stored position substantially adjacent to the central member and a deployed position extending away from the central member; and
