ABSTRACT:
A walker for use by infants in learning to walk includes a pair of spaced apart closed ring structures that are supported apart by a plurality of inwardly inclined adjustable struts. The rings are of a variable diameter with the lower ring defining a base substantially larger than the upper ring. The upper ring is sized to substantially fit the torso of the infant so as to confine the infant and prevent the infant from falling. The lower, larger ring provides an enlarged base which prevents the apparatus from tipping during use. The infant grips the upper ring during use. The adjustable struts allow adjustment between the upper and lower rings so that the device can be sized to fit each user of different height.
