Riding and pushing toy?

[miki]

Is there something out there that a 16 month old can push but also get on and ride? DD is trying to ride everything -- fire truck that is only meant to hold Megabloks, Little People doll house. And she wants to get on by herself. Is there anything like this that isn't too dangerous? TIA

We've had this Little Tikes Push N Ride Racer since DD was 9 months old, but she still enjoys it at over 16 months. I think the age range is up to 3 years. Target, TRU, etc. all carry it. Gracie likes to stick stuffed animals and books in the little yellow basket part. It's right around or under $20.

It also comes in pink/purple at TRU, but I thought it was just too cheesy. ;)

Edited because I always misspell Tikes with a y for some reason...

We got Fisher-Price's Stride to Ride walker/ride-on thing. It converts back and forth pretty easily.

We have this guy, too, and if you're lucky you can find it for $10 or less at a garage sale.

DD loves her "bike" and our friend who is almost 2 loves it too. They push each other on it - so cute!

My DS has the Peek a Blocks Hippo and loves it.

How about this one??? It has a little space in back for her doll to ride as well!

My DS had one that was a firetruck.... he LOVED it! It had all kinds of buttons that made a siren noise etc. We went to Toys R us and he was drawn to the firetruck one so we went ahead and bought it with gift cards he got for his 1st birthday!

Good Luck

Grandma has this at her house and it's always a big hit with DD who is just over 2 years old. She likes to put a doll in the back!

We have the pink and purple one. :)
We got it at a consignment sale for $5! DD is 8.5 months old and she loves pushing it. She likes sitting on it to ride, but we still have to push it for her if she is riding.
