5 tips for buying baby walkers
There are several points to consider when purchasing a baby walker. These 5 tips will help you choose the right model for your baby:
- In order to prevent uncontrolled rolling, it's a good idea to choose a baby walker with an integrated braking system. This allows the walking speed to auto-adjust to the child's abilities and lower the pushing speed.
- With unsteadier novice walkers, you should make sure that the baby walker is tip-resistant with an integrated axle so that the walker gives your child a sturdy hold and stability.
- For those who want to play it extra-safe and prevent the walker from sliding out from under the child, be sure to look for rubber or rubber-finished wheels. Rubber wheels are not only highly recommended for safety, but also for the protection of sensitive floor surfaces and the reduction of noise during play.
- Quality seals and toy awards such as "ToyAward" are good indicators of the play quality and manufacturing of the baby walker.
- Compared to the well-known but often criticised ride-in baby walkers, a classic push-along baby walker made of wood supports the development of motor skills instead of stunting them. For this reason, it's crucial to choose a baby walker which children push with a hand grip instead of one which they sit in. This is also because pediatricians and experts advise against the use of ride-in baby walkers for children aged 6 months and up.
