This is the same ride-on found in the back gardens and playgrounds of the United Kingdom, preferred by parents for its rugged yet safe construction and by children for its exhilarating whirling. Winner of a Right Start Best Toy Award (a premier UK toy assessment award), two children pull a lever that acts upon the central pole similar to the way a ratchet works, spinning both riders in a circle; the faster they push and pull, the faster they spin. When children cease pulling, they stop spinning. The half-eggshell shaped PVC seats secure children with clip-in safety harnesses. One child may also ride when an included “buddy weight” is placed in the second seat. Padded feet bars and chest bars cushion riders. Sturdy steel construction. Four rounded rubber feet provide complete stability. Powder-coated with non-toxic primary color that resists chipping. It has been certified by Intertek of London, England, the world’s leading safety tester of industry materials for 122 years. Indoor and outdoor use. Supports up to 80 lbs. per rider. Ages 3 to 8. 36″ H x 6′ Diam. (57 lbs.)

Winner of two of Dr. Toy‘s highest awards, the 2009 100 Best Childrens Products Award and the 2009 10 Best Toys Award! Adorable Kinders Rag Dolls are very high quality, soft dolls (true rag dolls) exclusively designed by famed artisan Aranza Zamora. They are hand-made with great attention to detail and engineered for durability. The doll comes dressed in a removeable outfit with separate shoes (or slippers if bedtime version). The clothes are interchangeable from one doll to another and both the dolls and the clothes are WASHABLE! They are completely non-toxic and non-allergenic. Gregory has bright blond hair and comes dressed for bedtime in 2 piece blue pajamas and slippers with a teddy bear. The print on the fabric and the style of teddy bear may vary slightly from the photo. Each doll has been designed with a different personality in mind. The name of each character begins with a unique letter from the English alphabet. A is Alise, B is Brittany, C is Christy, and so on. Each doll comes with an internet key-code that may be used to register online at the Adorable Kinders eSchool. There children can play educational games that make learning fun (Preschool and grades K-12). When all of the games for a grade level are successfully completed, the child graduates to the next grade. Dimensions: Approximately 18″ tall x 6″ wide. Dolls come wrapped in tissue paper inside a rigid, cardboard Adorable Kinders storage box. Safe for children ages 2 and older. MADE IN THE USA
