To all parents,

Is activity table a good alternative for baby walker? My SO is not on the board with idea of baby walker as statistics are showing head and neck injuries association with them!

Thanks in advance 🙏
 
@graceb Both my kids liked our activity table a lot. We didn’t have a walker, though we did have a toddler grocery cart that I put a soft weighted exercise ball in (2 pounds, I think) so he could push it without it tipping over.
 
@graceb We have an activity table (hand-me-down) and it's been a total hit. Kiddo loves it, learned to stand much better thanks to it. We also have an activity center/jumper from skiphop. We put him in there when we have to get something done. He's safe, entertained and I know he won't fall/crawl away. It will also convert into a table, can buy chairs for it.
 
@graceb An activity table is a wonderful tool from a physical therapy perspective! You can pop off two legs on one side, so it lays tilted, and use that as a kneeling activity or even for tummy time before they’re pulling up.
