I first got my 21 month-old the classic shopping cart to use for therapy and he liked it all right but didn't play with it much so I thought I could try this one instead. He clearly loves this one and is more engaged. With him being developementally delayed, I am very selective with the toys I get for him. One thing I like is that it has a plug so I can fill it with sand and make it heavier at the base to make it more challenging. It hasn't tiped over yet, compared to the classic one. It's also a big hit during play days.
