favorite ride-on toys?

[mary b]

Hi, I am about to buy my 12 month old a ride-on toy with her birthday $$ and want to get one she can use for awhile. Any suggestions on great ones?


TIA,
Mary

She will love it.

I suggest getting something with a push bar (toddler size) behind and also a riding option. It's nice if it has a bin of some kind to put stuff in.

My daughter has a Tonka dump truck (with inexplicable sound effects) that she really likes; she also loves to pull around the little wagon that came with her MegaBloks. But, the dump truck is a little too wide for her to sit on and ride and push herself. Still, I don't think this is a problem and I'm very satisfied with it. She loves pushing it everywhere, and she likes to put her stuffed animals on it and drive them around.

I suggest just going to Toys R Us and trying a bunch out, see what she likes.
