Ride On Pedal Car History

Friday, December 9, 2011 2:56 AM Posted by Kids and Teens
Starting out with the horse and buggy the wheels were of great importance to the future of nearly all modes of transportation. The wheel gave way for many kids toys as far back as the late 1800's, maybe even earlier. Children always loved rolling along with all the energy and imagination they could come up with. They could take a ride on the wheeled stick horse for a start, then forward to mimicking their parents, in their very own ride on or pedal car.

Plain, simple, fancy, wood, plastic or metal, the kid car was a hit, no matter the age. Proven through time ride on power has given lots of young folks a chance to imagine being all grown up and having a blast taking their own car on a trip. This ageless toy took the child, as well as the parent, on a fun joy filled day without a lot of added expense, maybe a snack, water or juice break. Play time was, and is, a very important developmental stage in the life of a kid. There should be play time set aside each and every day to put that foot power to use, burn that energy.

When pedal cars headed into the 30's, 40's and 50's they were picked up by anyone that had the money to spend and if lucky enjoyed by friends and other family members, also. The cars survived and became a little more sophisticated as did the adult version. Bright paints, splash of the decal, chrome accents, windshields, lights that worked, wheels and steering wheels that turned, all of which improved with time. All the additions, flash and sound gave the vehicles a true sense of real. From the beginning, feelings and expressions burst out in giggles, laughter, and sharing of fun. The pedal power car was just what the doctor ordered. Hopefully, making life a road to better health with the exercise, being outdoors, joy and laughter. It is amazing what good can come from these toys for kids, and their families.

There are many of the loving automobiles that are passed on to future generations because of the durability and access of parts, which helps keep them in usable condition. Memories make the all time favorite toy car exciting for the children as well as the adults. Hope you enjoyed your ride down Memory Lane and will take time to enjoy your children, grandchildren, or young friends every moment you can. As we see, time flies so very fast and even faster when you are having fun! Foot power, whether ride on or pedal, will be part of the fun of the future and will take the families into the same fulfillment felt by those from the past.
