What is a ride on car..? This generic description covers a range of toy cars that are built to be strong enough to allow your child to sit on them and propel themselves along. Depending on the size of the car the child will either sit on the top of the body with their legs straddling either side, or if it is a larger model they will actually sit inside the cabin as per a full size car. Why are they so popular..? Kids love these toys because it often gives them the ability to move around faster then they can by themselves. They also love to copy what adults and older children are doing, so gives them the chance to pretend they are just like their parents driving the family car. Ride on Cars are also generally colourful styled, imagination building and durable, just perfect for babies, preschoolers and even older children. Aren't they only for boys..? Quite the opposite in fact, both boys and girls enjoy playing with ride on cars. Many of the designs aimed at the younger end of the market are styled to appeal to both boys and girls anyway who have not yet developed a sense of gender retlated toys. As children get older it is true that more ride on cars are aimed at boys than girls but there are still many vehicles that can be bought for a girl. Not only in colour choice but by manufacturers producing cars with tie ins to popular girls tv, film and book frachises such as battery operated toy cars. Which are the most popular brands..? The biggest names in ride on toys are Fisher Price, Smoby and Little Tikes, the latter of which has being producing its best selling Cozy Coupe ride on car for over 30 years. Some of the most popular ride on cars must be the scaled down versions of famous sports cars such as Ferraris, Porsches and BMWs. They are produced as licenced toys of their namesakes by top manufacturers and are just as desirable as their full size counterparts. Where should I buy one from..? The two main options of course are to buy from a highstreet retailer or online. The main advantage of buying from a local shop is that you can see the car up close and compare a number of different models first-hand. If you do buy from a local toy shop or department store, remember that ride on vehicles are quite bulky, especially in their packaging, so check that you can get it in your car before you set off..! Shopping around online may get a you better price but it is always good to have seen what you are buying first and perhaps let your child sit on it for size. The images on websites can often be misleading. That being said, if you have done your research thoroughly and are buying from a reputable retailer you should be fine. Always read the small print on their delivery charges and returns policies too to make sure you won't get a nasty surprise at the checkout..! Will I have to put it together..? Even if you buy it from a local shop chances are that it will require some form of assembly. Always a good idea to look into this before you wrap it up and give the car as a present. There is nothing more disappointing than opening a present and then not being able to play with it because it needs an adult to spend hours assembling it for them..! Similarly, ensure that if it needs any batteries that they are fitted and fully charged too so that the child can just get on and go. Are they safe..? All reputable ride on cars will have been through rigorous safety testing to ensure they are fit for purpose. To check this, if you are buying a toy in the Uk or European Union just look for the 'CE' symbol on both the toy and the packaging. This ensures that it has passed the necessary safety test for these territories. As with any kids toy of course, children should be properly supervised, especially at an early age. No amount of safety testing can predict the random uses a three year old will find for a toy, so best to keep an eye on them you battery operated ride ons car.
