If you are looking for a razor ride ons with three riding modes, take a look at the Radio Flyer 3-in-1 EZ Folding Wagon for Kids and Cargo. The Radio Flyer Ziggle, introduced in 2013, is a ride-on toy for kids 3 to 8 with four caster wheels and no pedals. Kids propel forward by wiggling and twisting their bodies in a back and forth motion and moving the handle bars at the same time. The Radio Flyer Tricycle features the same bright red color and graphics as the little red wagon. A number of designs and styles have been produced by Radio Flyer, often inspired by the automobiles or popular culture of the day. The “Zephyr”, produced in the 1930s, paid homage to the Chrysler Airflow.
The Flightspeed™ Lithium Ion Batteries are engineered to provide the best performance available with a lower impact on the environment. It can easily switch between a top speed of 6 mph and a parent limited speed of 3 mph with the flip of a switch located in the trunk. While they are an innovative and space-saving concept, collapsible wagons have the propensity for safety issues. Wagon shoppers should consider collapsible or folding wagons which are clear of “pinch points”, or areas which can be hazardous to little ones, especially their fingers and hands.
“As people were buying phonograph cabinets they would say, ‘hey, can I get one of those wagons?’” Robert says. “And pretty soon he was selling more wagons than phonograph cabinets.” That kind of versatility has certainly given the iconic, fire hydrant red Radio Flyer some serious staying power. As of next year, the company will have been around a full century, with roots stretching back to the early 1900s when the future founder of the company, Antonio Pasin, arrived in America. People tend to forget that both of Chicago’s World’s Fairs—the Columbian Exposition in 1893 and the Century of Progress in 1933—took place during major economic depressions. So while every participating company did its best to showcase a brave face, joining in the city’s spending splurge wasn’t always viewed as the wisest investment.
Check the manufacturer’s age recommendations before making your purchase. “As a general rule, shoppers should consider pinch points and other key safety factors like durability, stability and features like seatbelts when shopping for a wagon,” he says. But you don’t have to be a kid to appreciate this classic wagon. Many shoppers report using theirs for yard work or to gardening. Says one, “We have had almost 100 lbs. of weight in it already, and it performed well and needed very little effort to handle. We are anticipating many years of good use from it.”
Aesthetically, this trike’s chrome fender and handlebar feature a playful dinging bell that adds more fun to the riding experience. Plus, the handlebar prevents tipping with a controlled turning radius, keeping your toddler upright for a safe ride throughout. As your child keeps growing, feel free to adjust the seat for their comfort, so they won’t outgrow the tricycle as quickly.
