Product Description
Product Description
The adorable Wheelybugs scream quality. Their ultra simple lines, cute looks and vibrant designs instantly stand out in a sea of plastic and their sturdy wooden frames can withstand any amount of robust love and fun. With their funky looks, the Wheelybugs have a great unisex appeal making them ideal 'hand me down' toys, especially as they always look as good as new!
The Wheelybug was born when its inventor saw his neighbour's toddler repeatedly hit a garden wall on his ride on and cry in frustration. As a result, unlike most wheel based ride-ons, the Wheelybugs feature unique multi-directional castors that offer easy manoeuvrability and limitless mobility that toddlers love. This not only keeps the toddler's interest in the toy sustained for far longer, but helps develop spatial awareness and encourages them to use a greater variety of lower limb muscles. An easily grip-able handle bar also means the Wheelybug can be used as a push along toy when babies or toddlers are taking their first faltering steps.
In a room full of toys children always make a beeline for the Wheelybugs, smitten by their cute looks, accessible size and simple fun. Their clean lines and vibrant designs also appeal equally to adults who are proud to display them in their homes--a rare feat for a toddler toy! Thanks to the body’s robust wooden base and padded layer of sponge covered with tough polyurethane that can be easily wiped clean, the Wheelybug has been designed to withstand years of being ridden, pushed, pulled, kissed and cuddled with abandon.

Size Name:Small (1-3 yrs)
Gorgeous little ride on that always gets a comment out of visitors! Extremely well made. Quite a hefty price tag though. All I would say is this, I bought the small size which is for 1+ for my daughter for her 1st birthday and it is quite small....I would get the larger one and it would last abit longer that way. But all in all, lovely!

The moment you see this product in real life, the main thing you notice is how cute it is. Infact, it's even cuter than it looks in pictures. I know, you don't think it's possible, but it is.
My one year old loves this, and finds it easy to sit on it and shuffle around. It is padded all round so any falls against it are nothing to worry about, and the base is rounded so it isn't sharp anywhere.
I've seen kids on all sorts of ride-on toys, but nothing is as manoeuvrable as this. You can turn in any direction and it's very difficult to turn over. The handle is sturdy and at a good height, it's ergonomically perfect.
I have a three year old also who loves to have a ride on this, this is recommended for kids up to 2.5 years of age, but it can take quite a bit of weight - the website evens says that adults can have a quick whirl if they fancy it.
So in a nutshell - this is the cutest toy either of my kids have ever had, they can both play on it, it's safe, it's wipe clean, and above all - it's fun!!!

Size Name:Small (1-3 yrs)
Brought the small mouse ride-on for a 1st birthday present and although much more expensive then the modern plastic ride-ons I think it has been a good investment. My other children whizz on the laminate flooring on it even though they are much to big really for it. It has the quality you would expect from a traditional wooden toy and is interesting to look at when not in use, has an old fashioned feel to it. The very quirky design make it a real winner when any other children come for a visit. The wheels go in any direction and the handle bar is perfect for little hands to grip. My daughter aged 1 was average height and her feet were able to touch the floor, but it was when she was approx 18 months old that she really got the hang of it. Works on carpet.

lovely but small
I bought this as a first birthday present for my twins - a boy and a girl. I would say the mouse is very well made, but very small for a toy labelled as 'large' - I can't imagine... Read more

Beautifully made but way too small!
