My 17-month old twins love their pull along pup, (especially my boy; he walks from room to room in circles, for ages, with his new buddy!) I am glad the play is active play, because we have enough toys that keep them sitting still, but here's one that has them in motion, and safely indoors. I am really happy to find toys that are not electronic, so I've gotten them a number of these Ambi toys. All are sturdy and so well thought out, for toddlers! They are very much like the toys I remember having as a kid in the 70s. Also, they come nicely packaged in boxes that aren't hard to open and unpack--I really appreciate that!
