Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.
I hadn’t heard if walking wings or baby walkers until recently. Maybe I am just behind the times, but I thought when I heard “baby walker” I just assumed it was one of those ones that are similar to an Exersaucer but it has wheels. Anyway, I guess it is better to learn late than never!
The Juppy is one of these new baby walkers I wish I had known about a year ago when E was learning to walk! The Juppy “Momentum” is a solution to a previously recognized but unsolved challenge for parents of babies beginning to walk. Babies strong enough to begin walking but not strong enough to walk alone. The Juppy builds confidence in your baby and teaches balance while you maintain your natural posture, eliminating the grueling task of hunching over while teaching your baby to walk.
The Juppy works is you put your baby in what sort of looks like overall shorts that go right over the clothes your child is wearing. Unlike traditional baby walkers The Juppy is a parent assisted baby walker which eliminates all of the dangers of walkers with wheels. The unique design eliminates the problems associated with similar products for example other parent assisted walkers do not have the crotch piece which is essential in keeping your baby from involuntarily lifting its arms. No more falling down stairs or reaching for dangerous objects because The Juppy requires your assistance at all times.
The Juppy has easily adjustable straps that accommodate your height whether you are 4’11” or 6’11”. The straps support the baby, which is the same concept as when you bend down to hold your child’s hands. This method is much easier on the back though!
There are two adjustable velcro straps on the back of the Juppy that can be easily adjusted.
Using the Juppy takes just 4 easy steps:
- Adjust straps to the shortest possible length to ensure parents’ arms are straight down.
- Place baby on your lap while sitting down and slide Juppy on like a pair of pants.
- Zip the back of the Juppy and press down on the Velcro straps.
- Now you are ready to walk!
After you are done using the Juppy you can just slip it in the included storage back and tuck it in your purse.
BUY IT: You can purchase the Juppy for $29.99 at the Juppy website. It is available in pink, blue and yellow and can even be personalized for an additional $6.95!
