Around the age of one, babies start taking their first steps. Of course, some babies start walking faster than others - every child does this at his or her own pace. Independent walking eventually comes naturally. To give your child extra support in the learning process, purchasing a walker is a good idea. Why? We will tell you more about that in this blog.
What is a walker?
A walker - also called a walking cart, baby walker or walking trainer - is an aid for your baby when he or she starts walking. The cart has a bar that your child can hold on to. This makes it easier for him or her to keep their balance. Poespas has a beautiful, wooden walker in its range that we are very proud of. In addition to learning to walk with the cart, your child can enjoy it for hours. The walker has various challenging activities that he or she can play with. Think of an abacus, xylophone or shape sorter with wooden blocks. Your child will be very happy with this!
Why a walker?
Can your baby take steps, but not yet walk independently? A wooden walker gives your child the necessary support. To keep his balance while walking, the little one holds on to the bar of the trolley. In this way, he or she learns to walk completely independently, without dad or mom having to help. More or less counter-gas? An invisible and removable brake on the walker makes it possible to adjust the walker to the speed of the child. You can easily set it yourself. Extra safe!

When to use a walker?
This varies per baby. Starting to pull up and take the first steps often happens between 8 and 15 months. That is why parents buy a walker around the first year of life on average. Does your child not use the walker right away? No worries. He or she can play with the activities on the walker. The beautiful, soft colours of the walker also ensure that it looks great in your interior. In other words - a unique and multifunctional gift for your child to learn to walk and play.
