The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Baby climbing gyms are small-scale, low-height play structures designed to support gross motor skills in babies typically between 9-18 months. In their most common form they consist of a soft ramp (inclined climb), a low platform, climbing steps and a small slide.

Benefits: They naturally support balance, coordination and body awareness during crawling, pulling up, stepping and climbing stages of development. They let your child explore at their own pace.

For safe home use, things to watch: gym height shouldn't exceed 30-40 cm, the floor should have a non-slip mat, baby should be barefoot or in non-slip socks. Always supervise at first.

Pediatric view: AAP supports climbing gyms for newly walking babies but emphasizes constant supervision and a soft ground surface to protect against falls.
