Abstract

A device for helping babies learn to walk properly consists of a wheeled frame that surrounds the baby, a harness that affixes to or more closely envelopes the baby, and an elastic support extending from the frame to the harness to bias the harness, and thus the baby, centrally within the frame. A braking mechanism prevents mobility except when the baby stands and balances, thus inspiring the baby to actually walk, and developing the baby's sense of balance and walking muscles.
