These little cars are adorable! I bought these for my friends son for his first birthday. They were a instant hit. They are soft, yet durable, and I like the fact that the wheels come off so you can wash it. Pretty, bright colors, and perfect size for their little hands! I like the fact that on the side of the box it gives suggestions on how to use with your child by age. It is also a pull back toy, so they enjoy going after them. I would definitely recommend.

Love these!

I love these. My grandson doesn't have great control over his hands yet so he easily hits himself in the head with the heavy plastic toys. These are cushy except the wheels and I don't have to worry about him getting hurt. They are soft and easy to grip. In addition, these work exactly as they should, you pull back and they zoom forward. If this review was helpful to you, please click the "Helpful" button. Thank you.

Awesome toy cars!

These are great! We got these when my daughter was 7 months old. I love that they're soft. The pull-back-and-go mechanism is very strong and will make it go quite a good distance, even on carpet. The other awesome part is that because they're made of fabric and stuffing at the top, and the wheel base is heavier, the center of gravity is very low, making them less likely to tip over. The wheels also detach with a Velcro.

So Much Fun!!

These are a must-have for young kids. They are so much fun!! No batteries, great design, colorful, and well-made. That's what we want in a toy. My grandsons started by watching the cars moving when we operated them. Then they started crawling after them....over and over again. It won't be long before they figure out how to make them go and then they will have another level of fun with these cute vehicles. You will be surprised how fast and far these cars can go. They can bounce off walls and keep going. The school bus in both sets we purchased does not go straight which is rather weird, but it's not a deal-breaker by any means. The wheels velcro off and on, so you can clean the toys appropriately. Highly recommended, and would make a great birthday gift.

My grandson loves these - great even when he was only 6 months old

I sent these along with some other gifts to my then 6-month old grandson for Easter. He is now 9 months old and my daughter says he hasn't stopped playing with them. In the beginning, he loved having her roll them back and make them go and now that he's bigger he loves crawling after them and is doing his best to figure out how to make them go himself. We've watched him play with them via FaceTime and love how he smiles and giggles as he chases them around. I love that they are soft and colorful, that they encourage interaction and are fun for him to chase after, and I look forward to his sense of accomplishment when he gets them moving himself. My daughter says they plan to bring some along on the long trip to visit us in a couple of weeks since they are currently one of his favorite toys.

Loved, loved, loved these cars!

These cars are great! I bought them for my grandson's first birthday and even though he can't roll them back yet to make them go, he loves them. His older sisters also loved them. They seem to be well made and I love the fact that you can remove the covering and wash them. It is so great to be able to find a toy that will actually do something without batteries. They roll great on wood floors of course, but my son has a rug in his living room that is a very low pile and the cars work great on it as well. Highly recommend these cars!

Fantastic!!! They really MOVE!!!!

My wife and I received these as a gift from our sister-in-law who apparently can't help herself from buying them for all her friends with new babies. I can see why. They are fantastic!!! My wife and I even have fun playing with them. The soft car bodies are brilliant (and super cute), and on hardwood floor or tile they really move. The best part is even if they run full speed into furniture, walls (or our child) nothing happens. They just bounce off or stop. We've been playing with them for a couple months now and they still run just as well as they did on day one. The pull and let go type of operation is still one that our 17 month old is trying to figure out, but he has just as much fun pushing them around. I'm now jumping on the train and buying them for some of my friends as well. If you have smooth floors these are likely to be an easy favorite for any kid that likes things that GO.

MUST HAVE!

We bought these as a first birthday gift for our son. He wasn’t interested in them right away, but as he got a little older they quickly became he’s favorite toys! He’s now almost a year and a half and is easily able to handle the cars and spends hours every day playing with them. He brings at least one wherever he goes and even sleeps with one in his crib. He hasn’t really gotten the hang of pulling them back, but they work just as well to push forward. These cars really go far! I love that the cars are soft for safety reasons (and that they don’t scratch floors or other surfaces they bump into). The wheels can be removed for easy cleaning.

Very durable, great little pull back and go cars

These little vehicles are loads of fun and almost indestructible. Not sure what kind of spring or rubber band motor these use but it must be something from the space shuttle. One grandson has access to a 60 ft hallway with hardwood floors and these things will race the full length. He sets up plastic bowling pins and uses these cars to knock them down. Other grand son has removed the fabric covered foam body (attached with velcro) from the wheels and attaches other toys to speed across the room. We have now purchased a third set as gift for friend's new grandson.
