Toddler Toys: vehicles

Encourage imaginative play with the wide range of toy vehicles designed to please boys and girls alike.

 

Although first cars need to me more chunky and with less loose pieces than Hot Wheels models to avoid choking hazards, there are plenty of trains, planes and automobiles to entertain little ones.

Vehicles used alongside other toys or just whizzed around the table and chair legs in your kitchen, can create imaginary everyday worlds where your child is at the heart of what happens next. There is also of course, the simple fascination with things that move on the roads on the way to the park, or through the sky.
