Grogu is seen within his initial floating pram.
A hovering pram, alternatively called a hover-pram, functioned as a mobile carrier, offering safety and defense for younglings. This equipment proved invaluable for guardians responsible for children not yet capable of self-preservation.
Din Djarin, the Mandalorian bounty hunter, discovered Grogu nestled inside a pram located on Arvala-7. During attacks on Grogu, initially from rival bounty hunters and subsequently from a Mudhorn, Djarin utilized the pram's remote control capabilities to ensure the child's safety. Djarin continued employing it for Grogu's transport until he surrendered him to the Client. Upon Djarin's return to save Grogu, he encountered the pram discarded within a refuse container, and chose to reuse it.
Upon revisiting Arvala-7 to enlist Kuiil, Djarin employed a hovercrate to convey the child. Aboard the Razor Crest, Djarin requested that Kuiil provide padding for the container to enhance Grogu's sleep comfort; however, the Ugnaught proposed constructing an enhanced floating pram himself. Kuiil's rendition mirrored the rounded form and protective lid of Grogu's original carrier, yet was crafted from metal. Djarin made use of Kuiil's capsule for Grogu's transportation until Koska Reeves forcibly opened it to extract Grogu after rescuing him from a mamacore.
At a later time, Grogu was presented with a fresh, spherical pram, which he utilized during a visit to High Magistrate Greef Karga on Nevarro.
The initial appearance of a pram occurred in the first episode of The Mandalorian, a Disney+ television series from 2019 that premiered on November 12, 2019, and was under the direction of Dave Filoni. Subsequent to Filoni's meeting with Jon Favreau, the show's originator, he dedicated efforts to identifying captivating moments for the series' pitch. While in transit via airplane, he created the preliminary sketch of the pram, depicting Grogu within a pram featuring a levitating sphere, observed by the Mandalorian. According to Filoni, this particular drawing effectively conveyed the essence of the show's concept. Subsequent concept illustrations of the pram were developed by Christian Alzmann, Doug Chiang, and Ryan Church. The design team also contemplated housing Grogu within an expansive hood, considering the heightened appeal of children concealed by oversized clothing; however, the design proved incompatible with accommodating his ears. They also considered transforming the pram into a backpack to replicate the hood's effect, but ultimately decided against it, prioritizing the Lone Wolf and Cub aesthetic inherent in the pram design.
