Which baby walker is right for you, your baby and your environment.

A baby walker can be a great help to parents and tons of fun for baby, but they are not for everyone and for not every situation. There is a great selection online (Graco baby walker, Baby Trend walkers, etc.) so it may be easier to find the kind of baby walker, with safety features that are right for you online than at the local mall or baby store.

The good news: A baby walker can provide hours of joy and fun for your baby and are often a baby's favorite item while at the same time giving mom and dad a little bit of a break. The bad news: Their safety is controversial. They can be safe, when the appropriate precautions are taken, but they can be dangerous (as can many other household and baby items) in some situations when the appropriate precautions are not taken. You really need to consider what is right for you, your baby and your environment.

There are many different types of baby walkers available today, with various safety features. Many of today's walkers are stationary, semi-stationary or include breaks or other stationary features as well as toy trays, activity centers, moveable seats and lots of fun accessories...

The traditional baby walkers are also still sold and are still a popular choice for many people. Some of the common sense safety precautions that should be taken with any baby walker are to:

keep you baby within view, and supervised,
keep baby away from stairways,
beware of dangling appliance chords,
keep your baby away from pools and other potential water hazards,
keep baby away from hot surfaces, containers and electrical appliances.

If you live in a single level home with no stairs (or steps to other levels), then the risk from falls is greatly reduced, but you must still consider the other safety precautions above as well as reading and following the manufacturer's safety instructions...
