Operating Modes
The Skip Hop 4-in-1 Activity Walker adapts to your child's growth with four distinct play modes:

1. Seated Play Mode
For younger babies (6 months+), the activity panel can be detached from the walker frame for floor play. This allows babies to interact with the light-up musical keyboard, gears, and other sensory features while sitting or during tummy time.

2. Cruising Mode (Walker)
As your child begins to stand and take their first steps, the activity panel can be attached to the walker frame. The non-skid rear wheels and speed control switch provide stability and adjustable resistance, helping your child gain confidence and balance.

3. Shopping Cart Mode
Once your child is more confident walking, the activity panel can be removed, and the fabric basket can be unfolded to create a shopping cart. This mode encourages imaginative play as children can push their favorite toys around.

4. Stroller Mode
For advanced imaginative play, the fabric basket can be adjusted to form a stroller seat. Children can place dolls or stuffed animals in the stroller and push them around, fostering nurturing and role-playing skills.
