Anyone know where I can get an Og Pog?

My little boy is due to turn 3 in May. He was born with cerebral palsy which has a significant impact on his balance and ability to walk (he will probably need walking aids for at least 2-3 years). I'd really like to get him a 'fun' walker to encourage him, and he's absolutely mad about In The Night Garden. One of the characters (Makka Pakka) has a walker called an Og Pog which would be perfect for him, can anyone suggest anywhere/anyone who could make or adapt him one? The scooters on the market don't offer enough stability.

Try cerebra or Remap. Were getting a ride on trike for ds1 age 7 from cerebra. You could try and describe what you want but it may not be an exact copy. no links as I am on my way out,sorry, but I know there are links on other posts.

not quite what you are looking for, but my friend got a very sturdy wooden walking toy for her DD (she anticipated she would have difficulties with walking due to an orthoaedic condition) - it was this one

I think we'd need something adapted at the every least, as DS is very tall (over 2.5 ft at under 3) and most mainstream walkers are too short.

You can buy an og-pog from argos but it is a scooter.
