[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mine learned with a wood floor. I don’t recall any falling forward. I think it’s easier to learn how to walk without that stuff on the floor and there’s no real danger. Isn’t that why they are so short?[/quote] That's why my pediatrician Dad says. "That's why they're made so close to the ground".[/quote] Dad Doc is right. We didn’t do any special floor proofing. Just watched them a lot whenever they were on the kitchen floor (tiles). They did occasionally lose balance and tilt forward. Because they are so low to the ground, they didn’t land very hard and all that padding (the baby fat and that massive diaper in their butts) helped to cushion any impact at that point. Let them feel the texture of the floor. They will love it. [/quote]
