[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, this is an excellent, simple, cute walker, and I would buy it again. The colors are bright and the penguin is super cute. The height is just right, and it was easy (and fun, lol) for my ten year old to put together. We played with it a bit without batteries before remembering that it could play music, and we actually found the simple fidgety activities soothing and perfect for little hands developing motor skills. Once we added the batteries, we found the music and sound effects not too loud or overwhelming and were cute although unnecessary. Babies and toddlers don't need more stimulation, and I think this toy had that perfect balance. As a walker, it is not too clunky or heavy and rolls smoothly at just the right height for a baby/ toddler. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because it doesn't have a brake option, which meant it kept rolling when little ones tried to sit on the floor and play with it. Although that does encourage movement as kids chase after it as well.
