Baby Walker or Activity Station?

Since Harris almost 7 months... I'm planning to buy him either Baby Walker or Activity Station...

So many opinions in Internet talks bad thing about Baby Walker..of course I'm in love with Activity Station BUT the price is INSANE!!!!! some up to RM700..crazy...

What i read in Internet and heard from news ..Cons of Baby Walkers :

1. Delays Development
2. Safety Concern!!!
3. Increased Back Pain Risk

Woish!!!bila baca scary you....

For Developmental issue, research indicates that Baby Walker may slow the development of infants, particularly in their development of skills like sitting upright, crawling and walking. Serious!!!!!
Plus....
Babies don’t have the power to stay upright on their own because they don’t have good back extensors or abdominal muscles. The can have a negative influence on balance. Researcher are more concerned by children who are developing a posture that is almost sway-back because of the overuse of walkers.

Safety
Ada yang mati...Takut la plak!!!

Camne ni.....

Bole guna tapi you must follow below rules....

1.Limiting Time in ‘Walker’ Devices May Avoid Back Pain Later in Life ( Less than 30 mins )

2. Keep your child within view.
3. Use baby walker as a toy NOT babysitting!!!

For time being..which one? Nak Jumperoo..tapi mahal lo....
