WHAT NOT TO DO

-

Beware of walking rings as they interfere with normal gross motor skill developmen­t. While they do strengthen lower limbs, the thigh and hip muscles are not exercised, and those are precisely the muscle groups needed to learn walking. Rather let your baby spend time on the playmat and allow him to pass through his developmen­tal stages in the usual way.
