When it comes to toddler toys, a decent bubble maker should always be in a parent’s repertoire. But why go with a simple bottle and wand when you can level up your bubble game with ArtCreativity’s Bubble Leaf Blower bubble machine? Not only does it looks like a leaf blower, but it can also make realistic leaf blower noises, which will add a whole new layer of interactive fun when helping clean the yard. A 4-ounce bottle of nontoxic bubble fluid is included, ensuring your kid will have loads of fun chasing and popping endless streams of bubbles. From pretend play options to adventurous ride-on toys, you can’t go wrong with these fun and thoughtful toddler gifts. Fork smooths out the roughest roads, the distinctive gumwall balloon tires are the perfect combination of luxury and pedaling ease.
The parent push handle extends as far as the Joovy’s, though unlike that trike’s push bar it is not adjustable. We found that this trike was just as easy for a parent to steer as the Joovy, and easier to steer with one hand. It’s also easier to steer than other push trikes we tested, including the Radio Flyer 4-in-1 Stroll ‘N Trike, a clearly inferior model that’s similar to the Joovy (and easily mistaken for the Deluxe Steer & Stroll).
This Magna-Tiles set is another classic STEM toy that’ll bring a unique sort of building play into your youngster’s life. From roads to buildings to magnetic cranes, your toddler will be able to develop their fine motor skills as they construct a variety of structures and colorful shapes. These tiles are made of magnets, so not only can they connect with each other on their own, but your kid can also toss them up onto any metal surface to add further layers of creativity to their imaginative play. We tested the Roadster side by side with two other Big Wheel-style tricycles, the Original Big Wheel and the Radio Flyer Big Flyer, which are both made of plastic. We preferred the Schwinn’s grippy tire to the Original Big Wheel’s plastic wheel, which felt not-that-durable and slipped all over the place—which, yes, is sort of the idea.
Like the Joovy, the Deluxe Steer & Stroll has a 10-inch front wheel. The trike has a bell that was a hit with my then 3-year-old son (the Joovy comes bell-less) and like our pick it has a storage compartment in back. The Radio Flyer’s storage space is covered, which keeps precious items from flying out (the Joovy’s compartment is open). The Deluxe Steer & Stroll weighs 14½ pounds, just a smidge more than the Joovy. I then spent 18 hours evaluating the tricycles in everyday conditions with my two sons, using each trike for several strolls around the neighborhood and the top contenders for a dozen or more walks. We tested each trike on grass, pavement, and bumpy broken concrete surfaces, paying attention to how the wheels performed on each surface and how long it took to get the bike going.
It’s low to the ground, with more of a Big Wheel style than you typically see in a metal trike. The bike is rated to 50 pounds, 6 pounds more than the Joovy (many kids don’t hit 50 pounds until schwinn tricycle they’re 7 or 8 years old). Though the Deluxe Steer & Stroll won’t work like the Joovy for the youngest kids, it’s still a good option to use as a stroller alternative with older toddlers.
But the Schwinn Meridian Tricycle for adults is an excellent alternative to a bicycle for your commute or weight loss. Playing with Legos is an inherent part of being a kid. The Duplo Classic Brick Box Building Set introduces the endless fun to the littlest builder. Your kid can exercise creativity by building a road, an array of structures and even a flower archway.
It fits perfectly on my bike and is exactly as described. I’d guess the single-speed freewheel/freehub on the jackshaft has something wrong with its pawls. I posted about this about two years ago and the other trike is no longer on the road. New trike (got it about a year ago) is now having the same issue as the last. I have a video on twitter that I just did to explain it better.
