At last, your tadpole is ready to explore the world. Although his motor skills have progressed a lot, he is not yet ready to take his first steps. If you are going to buy a walker, follow baby push walkers buying guide.

To help their little one go out to discover the world and accompany their first steps, some parents buy a walker. From what age can it be used? How to choose the right model? Follow these tips.

From what age?
Early childhood specialists advise against the use of the walker - or for some tacataca - before 8 months. At this age, the child feels inclined to launch into new experiences. You already have enough motor skills to start exploring your surroundings for yourself. Before, the baby's lower extremities are not sufficiently muscled or developed to properly support the body's weight.

Installing a child too soon in a walker can have serious consequences for its growth. That is why the walker is subject to controversy from time to time. But if used at the right time, tacataca really helps to walk and stimulates the child's autonomy.

Safety criteria
Before buying it, it is essential to check if it complies with the European standard EN 1273: 2005 for walkers. But you have to control other aspects to ensure the safety of your child.

To start, the walker must have a wide base to cushion the blows against the different obstacles that the baby will encounter along the way. You also have to check if the chosen model has non-slip skates and a system that allows you to slow down the speed if the walker has wheels.

These two devices are essential for the child to travel alone, although always under the supervision of an adult.

Different models
We already know that children tend to tire quickly of toys. To attract your interest as long as possible and make the purchase profitable, choose a walker with integrated stimulation games. Musical accessories, colorful objects and other luminous activities will distract your little one when installed in his tacataca.

The evolutionary models are also interesting, because they adapt to the child, mainly thanks to the height of the adjustable seat.

Staying, walking, pushing ... The walker also accompanies the baby throughout his motor evolution. Do not forget to check the comfort of the model, since your child will spend a lot of time in it. The seat has to be sufficiently soft and the crotch device must be adjustable. But, above all, remember: children should not spend too much time in the walker.
