Toys and Games Reviews of Around the Block Walker

Customer Review: Dangerous for the daring toddler...
Summary: 2 Stars

This toy is a really bad fit for my toddler. I purchased the toy for him when he was just starting to walk. I got a great price on it at [...], I love the Parent toys in general & this looked great. The first thing he did was to find a really creative way to jam his finger in the edge of the lower block compartment. Looking at the toy, you would never think this was possible - but the lower lid is designed differently than the upper lid and he stuck his finger on the side and closed the lid. He could not get his finger out and it was purple for several days. So we took the blocks out and taped the lid shut. Well - we have wood floors and had the same problem some of the other reviewers had. It moves too fast on wood. My husband used tape and messed with the wheels to slow the walker down so my son could try to use it - - but he kept falling when pushing it and there are no breaks to lock it in place - - so we had to put it in a corner where my son couldn't use it as a walker. My son is now walking really well - - so I pulled it out of the corner this weekend to see if we could use it as a mobile toy. Well - no dice. My son is now a climber and this toy CRIES OUT for climbing. It looks like a step ladder but it doesn't have enough support to hold him so he can climb the stairs and flips right over the handle (if left with the toy for even a second). Also now that he can walk with it, he can pull it over on top of himself if he is pulling on the handle rather than pushing. So - third strike and it's out. I think this toy is really dangerous if you have an adventurous tot, I can't recommend it. The blocks are awesome. It looks pretty. It is built in a very sturdy manner. But there is no way I can have our son play with it unless I am all over him making sure he doesn't crack his skull open playing with it. What a disappointment! His daycare also purchased the toy and had similar issues with a variety of kids so they have gotten rid of it.
