Baby Ride on Toys

Keeping a child engaged and entertained can be a tough task if you don’t have the right toys to hand. In our opinion, a toy should not just be a source of play time but also provide various opportunities to grow and develop. One of the best products to achieve this is to ride on toys. 

Ride-on toys, as the name suggests, offer a way for babies and young children to move around freely, promoting independence. For babies, this can be their first opportunity to navigate spaces without needing to be held by a parent, which is a pivotal development milestone.

These interactive toys offer cognitive, social, emotional and physical development benefits for babies whilst ultimately teaching them how to use their bodies. Baby ride-on toys don’t require much steering but still allow young children to navigate on their own accord, which also benefits their creative thinking skills. Also, when used by younger children, riding on toys offers many benefits by way of confidence as it shows them that from a young age, they can play independently. 

Finally, baby ride-on toys can be used in many locations making them ideal for use whilst a baby is getting to know new environments.

While baby ride-on toys are intended to be safe, there are a few considerations that must be made. 

Firstly, if a young baby is unable to support their own head or weight, they are too small to use these accessories. Also, a baby must be of the recommended size as other safety features such as harnesses may not fit them correctly. 

You should also ensure that baby ride-on toys are only used on flat surfaces to prevent any accidents from occurring. Finally, they should never be used without parental supervision as even if a baby is getting physically strong, they may still have a wobble from time to time. 

It’s vital to also ensure that any baby ride-on toy you select has been safety tested to ensure it conforms with the relevant regulations. This doesn’t just cover the structure of the toy but also elements such as materials to ensure they are safe for a baby to interact with.

All baby ride-on toys will be specified as being suitable for different ages, heights and weights so always be sure to pay attention to this. When looking for a ride-on toy for a baby, you will find they start at 12 months. However, some options may be suitable for younger children if they feature more safety supports.
