6 Best Baby Walker Alternatives, According to Doctors: 2018

We talked with two pediatricians about the best infant walker alternatives. The safest baby walker substitute is a stationary activity center, which doesn’t have wheels, and we found 6 options that have been tested for safety.
This baby activity center from Creative Baby is most similar in style to a traditional baby walker, except without the wheels.
The other common type of activity center, like this one from Fisher-Price, transforms from a place for a baby to sit to a toddler-sized play table once they’re old enough to stand.
This activity center from Skip Hop is arguably the most luxe and customizable, since it has a foot support platform that you can perfectly adjust to your toddler’s height.
There are also a couple of portable stationary activity centers, like this one from Summer Infant that comes with an umbrella so your child can play outdoors.
This portable stationary activity center from KidCo is even more simple, with no toys or other bells and whistles. But it packs up small and only weighs seven pounds, so it’s a great travel option.
