Our Editorial Review
Product Description It's 2 toys in 1! As a sturdy, stable walker, the Step Start Walk 'n Ride toy helps babies learn to stand, take their first steps, and walk. As the grow older, it easily converts to a first ride-on toy! It has a locking mechanism that only parents can activate, so children can't change modes by themselves. Kids can explore the hands-on activities in both the walker and ride-on modes to see fascinating sights, hear silly sounds and touch interesting textures. Adult assembly required
Editorial Review When little wobblers are bored with walls and sofa edges, and there's no one to offer a hand, they can two-foot it safely across that open ocean of living-room floor with the help of the Step Start walker. This dual-purpose toy acts as stable support as they learn to walk, then lets them roll along when they want to ride. Once they are secure on their legs, the walker converts easily to a first ride-on toy. (Only adults can operate the wheel-lock mechanism.) A flexible antenna, spinning drum, clicking gear, and other sight-touch-sound features provide sit-down play fun. Assembly requires a Phillips screwdriver. --Ava Natov
Customer Reviews
Not much of a walker... Posted 13 August 2008
I bought this toy for our first son when he was beginning to walk. He never used it as a walker. He didn't like using it, plus it doesn't give any walking room, he would just hit his feet on it...not the best thing when they are trying to learn how to walk. On the other hand, it has been a great ride-on toy. My son is no 2.5 years old and he still loves his car.
Good for pre-walkers Posted 18 July 2008
This toy is good for the pre-walker as it gives them the balance and confidance to walk alone. Because it converts to a riding toy it has the ability to go beyond just a walking toy and give several years of play.
Good indoor and out! Posted 20 June 2008
My in-laws bought this for my daughter when she was 10 months old. Immediately she loved pushing it around, spinning the knobs and pulling at all the accessories. Changing positions is straight forward and I'm glad it's not too easy. At 23 months, my daughter thinks she can change positions, luckily she can't. We used this indoors and outdoors and even left it outside all summer. Some pieces fell off (which is hazardous if you're not around when it happens). Every few months or so she would like a new thing about it, whether it was hiding toys in the hood or realizing she could sit on it and ride it round.
Basically, you don't need a lot of toys, just good ones and this is one of them. It's versitile, durable and after a year of use it still gets some attention everyday. If you've got a baby in the cruising stage I would definitely get this.
Great for walking, not so great for riding Posted 19 June 2008
My parents got this for my daughter at Christmas, she was 8 months old. She just played with the gizmos for a couple of months, and used it in pusher mode to help her stand. In just 2 short months, however, she learned to push it around and she was walking on her own well before her 1st birthday. HOWEVER, this toy is a terrible ride-on. It's too wide to allow the babies to move their feet...more like just a sit-on. Oh, and the "antenna" is in the way for babies to swing their leg over the seat to get on or off. My daughter tried dozens of times and I always had to help her on and off. We just keep it in walker mode now and I am looking for another ride-on.
