Memorial Day: The Beginning of Outdoor Ride-On Toy Season

Memorial Day: The Beginning of Outdoor Ride-On Toy Season
It's hard to be one, or so it seems to my one-year-old niece who longs to keep up with her older brother. Try as she may, her wobbly legs are no match for her brother's racy, zig-zaggity gait.

Things have changed now that she rides the Cheeky Chic, a sturdy and smooth walker/ride-on toy for babes as young as one. With large wheels and a low seat, even those who are barely standing can get themselves on and off this stylin' ride. And parents will love that the Cheeky Chic comes with the best three-word phrase in children's toys: "No Assembly Required."

I also like that you can fold it up to store it or use the carrying strap to bring it to the park. And for an extra $20, you can get a telescopic handle which will save your back should your child prefer to be pushed. 

As for my niece, her grin says it all: "Watch out big brother. I'm coming for you". -Christina
