Whether you call them push along toys, pull along toys, or rolling toys, children love toys with wheels and a handle or string which can be easily moved by pushing the toy in front as they toddle or pulling the toy behind them. They love toys of this genre which make noise or have bright, interesting colors. These toys encourage your young child to walk more and learn to balance better as they pull or push their fun toy on the floor, grass, patio or sidewalk. Here are a few of the wonderful choices available for your child to enjoy:
1. Corn Popper Push Along
Fisher-Price, known for decades as one of the finest toy makers around, has been producing the Corn Popper Push Along toy since 1957. You probably had one as a child and your child of one year or more should have one too. As this toy is pushed along by the handled, the balls inside the clear plastic dome jump up and down, making a sound just like popcorn popping. Sure to help your little one improve his or her balance and coordination, this toy also helps develop strong motor skills. Don’t let your toddler miss out on this wonderful, tons-of-fun push toy.
2. Pull Along Zoo Animals
Melissa and Doug’s Pull Along Zoo Animals toy is a real classic which will please any toddler. The visit colors of the animals — a purple elephant, orange and yellow giraffe, and black and white zebra — can provide hours of fun as your youngster toddles along pulling the strong string to roll the zoo along with them. The benefits in areas of kinesthetic and tactile development are vast, so don’t let your child miss this classic.
3. Roll Along Pals Turtle
Fisher Price’s Roll Along Pals Turtle features a friendly, happy and very colorful turtle with numbers and shapes on his shell. Great for helping baby learn numbers because each number plays a sound when pressed. A sing-along song plays when the toy is pulled or pushed or when baby presses the musical light-up button. Your child will spend hours exploring this sturdy, washable-exterior toy.
4. Basics Crawl Along Wobbler
Another great Fisher Price offering is the Brilliant Basics Crawl Along Wobbler. This musical toy plays tunes to hold your child’s attention. The bright colors and textures will attract your child’s touch and as it rolls along as baby uses this push along toy, it wobbles in a whimsical way. This is a darling toy which will keep your baby moving and playing endlessly.
