Walking/push toy?

sunnyday016 · November 2009

Any good recommendations for a good walking/push toy? I'd prefer it to be wooden and not make a ton of noise-and also for a decent price. I'd love to get one for DD for Christmas!

We have this one - https://www.amazon.com/Plan-Toys-51230-Baby-Walker/dp/B000FZQL6W/ref=pd_sim_t_90 - not cheap I guess but it does come with blocks! I really like it - when kiddo was just starting to use it, I'd have to hold it for him as he pulled up on it (he really was just starting to cruise then). Now he can do it on his own and it doesn't flip. Not sure if that's true of all push toys or just the way this one is designed. You can adjust the tension on the wheels which is nice. Kiddo loves driving his cart now ;-)

Radio Flyer makes one that my dd used when we were at the Please Touch Museum in Philly. She was pretty good at cruising at was taking some steps on her own at the time she used it so I don't really know how it is for a baby just starting out. It's similar to the one in the post above but I don't think it comes with blocks.

Not sure if you have an IKEA nearby, but they have a lot of wooden toys and really good prices. They have a wooden push toy, but it does make noise. Not sure how much, but it isn't silent. You can preview some of the toys online (but can't shop online). We are not buying any toys until after Christmas, grandma is already going overboard.

FYI Gap carries Plan toys and right now they have many of their toys 20% off, and when they have events for 25 and 30% off, they include their toys. They have that Plan walker for $52 and a similar one from Educo for $48. However this 20% off toys ends tonight at midnight. But good to keep in mind when they have their big Gap sales - we got DD a couple nice toys from there the other week when they had their 30% off Friends and Family event.
