By: Jackie G. Maxwell.
So you’re going to become a father. Now is not the time to panic. You’ve got lots of time to get used to the idea, before that new life you helped create, arrives to join your own. These tips for a first-time Dad will help you to survive the pre-baby and post-birth jitters.

first-time-dadBe supportive of your partner during the pregnancy. Some women have a more difficult time than others, and the fluctuation of hormones can bring on everything from mood swings to what seems to be unreasonable irritation with you, and everything else. While you may not understand her moods, remember that they are transient, and weather them in whatever way works best for you both. She may be irritated, but would appreciate a simple gesture like flowers, a foot rub, or even a cup of tea without having to get up. You’ll find your own paths to peace, as the pregnancy progresses.

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R1Z0VL6UG52BVH Stride-to-Ride Lion is great! My daughter is 9 months. She loves hitting the nose and dancing to it. lol. She plays with the lion’s hair. The little bugs on the both sides of the lion she plays with that too. Sometimes I do have help her stand up to walk with the lion because it’ll move a little as she is getting up but once she is on it she is on the move! (until she hits a wall or my cabinets). No doubt in my mind that she’ll be walking soon.

I bought this toy/walker to encourage and aide pre-toddler (9 mos & up) with learning to walk. It’s adorable, yet still too light and easily tips over. So, I placed three (3) 16 OZ. canned products in space under the seat (in raised position for walking – baby can NOT get them out). This has helped weigh it down to the point where she can now use it to support her rather than tip over. She enjoys putting her Elmo on the seat and pushing him around and getting lots of assisted walking practice. Pressing nose makes music. Easy to assemble and seems fairly sturdy. Feel she will also enjoy being able to sit and ride fairly soon.

We bought this for our little girl when she was 8 months old. The lion is very cute, has a big purple nose that lights up when pushed, and it plays music. It really encouraged our daughter to walk and within a couple of weeks she was walking without holding onto anything. Now she’s 13 months old and uses it as a ride on toy. You don’t have to push the nose in order to get the music to play, sometimes it plays when you push it around. Great toy, highly recommend!

I’m pretty patient with items, but this does not fold. It rolls well and my daughter seems to like it. So its functional. There is nothing else to this. I wish I had gotten something better. Oh and becareful of the toy attachments, the fingers of your baby can get stuck in it. It happened to my 6 months old, so….. keep yours on your baby when she/he is in it.

This is a great baby walker. It is colorful, safe, easy to store. It has cute toys in it, with a little mirror. My son loves playing with the toys. It is so easy to assemble. It took me less than ten minutes to put it together. Whatelse can you ask for at a reasonable price? My eight month old loves it and he has been using the baby walker since he turned six months old. I highly recommend this product.
