How to jazz this up?

My two year old will be receiving his walker very soon which is really exciting but I want to make it look a bit cooler and fun for him.

I'll need to use stickers and things but I don't really know what to do.

Any ideas please?

Will you own it or is it loaned to you? If you own it you could get some glitter paint and paint glitter stripes!

It depends on what he’s into, could you paint it? Attach scooter ribbons? A bell?

I think it's loaned to us. They didn't explain it very well but we're hoping DS only needs it for a year or two and he'll then walk on his own.

I think using stickers might be safer but he'd have loved it being sparkly haha I was thinking maybe flames ? I really don't know but it just looks a bit medieval at the moment haha.

What about sparkly washi tape in lots of different colours?

That's a good idea! Thank you.

He loves sparkly colourful things, he also likes fire trucks, cars, dinosaurs etc so I'll have a look for some tape, stickers, ribbons. The whole shabang haha I just wanna make it special for him.

I've just realised I've posted in aibu, I didn't mean to sorry about that.

Home bargain's have a brilliant selection of stickers that are 3 for 2 at the moment. They also sell a tub of stick on glitter balls.
Also have a look at bike extras - cup holders, lights etc.
Can you sew? What about a utility apron to go round the front but use bright, neon, sparkly fabrics for snacks etc?
You could draw flames on using acrylic paint pens (use nail varnish remover to remove) that way you could change the design as he grows.
I think they may well come as glitter but nail varnish would work.
Have a chat with the company that you got the walker from and maybe they have/would like to give advice/tips or even a person who works with kids to change their walkers.
Good luck

Maybe find out what condition it has to be returned in? Stickers can be a bugger to get off.

Have a look at bike streamers too.

Battery operated dinosaur fairy lights?
