Ride On Toy Motorcycles Enhance Fine Motor Skills

Our children are growing, learning, and exploring things at speeds that we sometimes can't imagine. They walk, then they run. They start getting mobile and before you know it they're climbing. Whatever they're doing, you can be sure that they're doing it fast with whatever fun thing they can find to entertain themselves with along the way. Not all toys are as safe as others, it is a parent's job to choose a suitable riding toy for their child.

Ride on toy motorcycles are some of the most fun rides for toddlers and preschoolers that are not only fun but also developmentally beneficial. These rides are great for encouraging fine motor skill development.  These skills are developed by hand to eye movements that are encouraged as your child turns on their motorcycle, pushes the hand accelerator, and manages their dash.  

If your child has grown out of his little 3 wheeler and is looking for a more challenging ride on toy, there are several options available. The Trademark Power Wheels Harley Davidson Battery Operated Motorcycle can be purchased for around $100 and even comes in pink for the girls.

These bikes are very realistic looking and include a start up button, a horn button, a working headlight and taillight, and can even drive up to 3 miles per hour. This cool ride on toy motorcycle even goes in reverse for those little daredevils who would like to challenge their coordination skills. These are suitable for ages 18 months to 4 years of age and are safer than a bicycle due to thicker wheels to support balance, and a wider base for seating which will allow your child to feel more secure while riding around.

Ride on toy motorcycles, including the Power Wheels Pink Harley for the girls, will increase motor skills, balance and coordination, and provide hours of entertainment!  What a great way for your kids to gain some independence and have fun in the summer sun!

Kids Power Wheels For Those Adventurous Souls Who Love Speed

Kids love electric ride on toys and the more adventurous the child, the faster they like to go. They love driving, they love the speed, and they love the independence that comes with this type of toy. If you're looking for both speed and quality then the Power Wheels vehicles are the way to go.

Kids Power Wheels have been around for years and are some of the best rides ever manufactured. The particular rides that run the fastest, climb the steepest inclines, and handle the roughest terrains are powered with the  24 volt batteries. Since they run faster they are really only age appropriate for the older children who are at least 5 and older.

The Fast Power Wheels travel at two different speeds, 3.5 mph and 7 mph. Although these are still very safe speeds, parents can lock these vehicles into the lower speed if they choose. This is great for those kids who may who need a little time getting a feel for their new ride.  For those little demons who just want to dig in then you can let them fly at the higher speed.  Look out because here they come!

Not only do these Power Wheels travel faster but they're also able to handle a more diverse range of terrains. They maneuver very well on on wet grass, mud, gravel, and asphalt.  Nothing will hold these vehicles back.

If you're looking for something even faster then the Power Wheels Motorcycle will fill those shoes.  These great rides are also powered with a 24v battery but they travel up to a whopping 15 mph.  But don't be alarmed with that number because it's still a very safe bike for age appropriate children.  This is a very inexpensive way to introduce your child to the world of motorcycles without the expense of a gas powered ride.

Power Wheels are well made, safe, durable, and wonderful toys for children.  Watch your kids gain some independence and self-esteem while they're having the time of their lives.

Girl Power Wheels

So let's be realistic, those girls love ride on toys just as much as the boys do.  Maybe even more so.  Having a great Power Wheels is a way for the girls to have a little social time together.  They can talk, ride around, and plan some great adventures to fill those busy summer days.

If you've given yourself some time to start looking at the different kinds of rides that are available, then you may have noticed that there's a large variety of 6v, 12v, and 24v toys available in a variety of styles and colors. If you're just starting to look then you may want to be aware of a few important tips.

I think that the 6v Power Wheels are best for toddlers.  They're perfect because they travel at a very safe 2 mph or 2.5 mph. The school aged preteens and teens will do well with the 24v vehicles which use two 12v batteries to generate a little more speed.

The quads with 12v batteries are very practical for preschool and elementary aged kids. These vehicles have two speed ranges, a safe 2.5 mph and a slightly faster 5 mph. Both of these are equally safe and age appropriate for children aged three to six years.

The girl Power Wheels are very safety conscious. The 6 volt rides are generally installed with automatic brakes so the vehicles will stop as soon as your child takes their foot off of the pedal. The 12v quads come equipped with an automatic locking system for safety.

So now that you're up to speed with the different speeds available, how do you know which style to buy?  Well, we girls are all about pink so some of the best rides would be the Pink Power Wheels.  These great pink vehicles come in a huge variety of sizes and themes. You can buy princess themed rides, classy convertibles, rough and tumble ATV's, and even an SUV if you prefer. No matter what your child's taste there is sure to be a great ride for them to enjoy.  Look out because here come those stylish and classy girls on their own rides, out to tour the neighborhood!

Power Wheels Vehicles

It's a very well know fact that our children love to imitate what we parents do.  They love to imitate us when they're young, before they grow up and think that they're smarter than us!

Since we need a vehicle to transport us about our busy lives, our children have been watching us drive to work and other places since they were babies.  This makes it is very natural for children to want to imitate us by drivng their very own toy vehicle.

The best vehicles that will allow them to do this are the battery operated ride on toys. To accommodate this need, manufacturers have introduced many 6v, 12v, and 24v toys in amazing colors and styles. Some of the most popular rides are the jeeps and the quads.

The Power Wheels Jeeps are great fun, they're a safe ride, and they're very durable.  These vehicles are great because they can handle a multitude of terrains and they can be driven in two very safe speeds.  I like the fact that children can sit next to each other on these vehicles, just like they would sit next to us in a car.

If you've got some really outgoing and adventurous kids in the house then you may want to consider one of the quads like the Power Wheels Brute Force.  This great ride is just as tough as it looks.  It comes equipped with the well know Monster Traction that will make it possible for your kids to tackle any kind of terrain.

Power Wheels Vehicles are great ride on toys for school aged children.  Your kids will become more independent and gain self-confidence when you allow them to be exposed to this type of great ride.  And you'll be pleasantly surprised to know that you can probably ride either of these toys if you would like to try them out!

The Disney Princess Toys

We all know how much girls love the Disney Princesses.  And what better way for them to have fun then with the Princess Power Wheels.  These great rides are not only gorgeous to look at but they're also so much fun to ride.

Even a princess can have a great adventure and it's perfect ok for your daughter to emulate that.  Princesses do teach some good values when they sacrifice for those that they love and help others around them.

The Princess Power Wheels come in a few different models and are appropriate for several different age groups.  Toddler girls will enjoy the Princess Quad or the Tod Rod (pictured).  These great rides are powered by a 6 volt battery and they travel at a very safe 2 mph.  These ride on toys are great for children who are just learning to drive.  This is a great way for girls to become comfortable steering and with the acceleration.

The Trail Princess is great for girls who are 3 and older.  This tough looking quad is run by a 12 volt battery.  It operates at 2 different speeds forward and also works in reverse.  This is the perfect ride of those adventurous girls who are really looking for afternoons of fun.  It's well made and durable with four wheel suspension, high performance steering, and automatic brakes.

The Princess Power Wheels ride on toys are great for girls who love the Disney Princess craze.  They're fun, they'll encourage independence, and they'll generate self confidence on any girl who rides them.  

The Power Wheels Dune Buggy

The Power Wheels Eliminator is the most fun and well made dune buggy that you'll find anywhere for those adventurous kids of yours.  Dune buggies are great for off road fun, racing, and rough terrain climbing.

If you're looking for a ride on toy for your kids that is "cool", fast but safe, and safety conscious then look no further than this great dune buggy.  This ride has a 350 watt motor that is completely battery operated - there's no need to fuel this one up.  It's very quiet and runs up to speeds of 10 mph.  This is fast enough for the kids to have fun without being too fast to be dangerous.

This ride is very durable with its steel frame.  The throttle and brake controls are hand controlled.  It has rear disc brakes and a safety flag.  This is a the perfect vehicle for off road terrain because it has a reduction drive that provides lower torque climbing and high torque gearing.

I have to say that I wasn't sure that I was a fan of the Power Wheels Eliminator until I saw one in action at a friends party.  I always thought that they were unsafe but this buggy has a side roll cage and padded bucket seats with a seat belt.  They're fast enough for the kids to have fun with and slow enough for parent piece of mind.
