Dr Baker, I wonder what is your professional opinion on “foot-to-floor ride on toys” for young toddlers? At what age are they safe to use? Are they beneficial?

[@DrLaurenBaker]

Hi Milena! Thanks for the comment. I like ride on toys for the most part, as long as they are toys that you can get on/off - much better than sit in exersausers which I do not recommend at all.
I happen to like balance bikes a bit more than ride on toys because you can introduce them around the same age but they can last a bit longer especially if you invest in one that can go down to two wheels vs three. I just grabbed this one for my nephew who is 12 months and he does well with it. amzn.to/3TtNiM4 (affiliate). Balance bikes are shown to be awesome to progress kids to even regular bike riding. This instagram reel is impressive from one of my PT friends: instagram.com/reel/CrZb_vPp8lG/?igsh=Nnk5ZHMycGEyZ3Bt
So while I think ride on toys are good, I think balance bikes that can go from three wheels to two wheels are even better.
And would say 12 months is a good age, must be able to stand and pull to stand and take steps while holding on. Ideally have crawled for 2-3 months.

@@milenavlad2954 oh my gosh! Thank you SO much. I am really excited to get more videos out in 2024 and 2025, so comments like these literally make my day because sometimes I get a little nervous about still feeling like a beginner in editing and filming so THANK YOU 🙏
