My DH is pretty set on a ride on toy for him. It's his nephew, so I probably will let DH decide what to get. Maybe we could get a cozy coupe for Christmas. Or vice versa. Cozy coupe for birthday, ride on toy for Christmas. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ride-on-toy-for-1st-birthday#post-1865687 Wed, 17 Sep 2014 09:22:51 +0000 Alivoo01 1865687@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@abbydabbydoodlebug: Since it's profile is pretty slim, it can tip over. However, DS has to really put his body into it to tip it over. Fortunately, it's not very tall so the fall distance isn't big. It startles DS, but he hasn't cried. He gets frustrated he can't get it upright on his own again though. Ha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ride-on-toy-for-1st-birthday#post-1865671 Wed, 17 Sep 2014 09:13:57 +0000 loveisstrange 1865671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cozy Coupe, ftw! Ours is still going strong at 2.5. I foresee many years of use still. Id see a kid outgrowing both of those you posted much faster.</p> <p>ETA: The trikes with the push handle are awesome too. We have one we got at a consignment sale and C loves it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ride-on-toy-for-1st-birthday#post-1865669 Wed, 17 Sep 2014 09:13:09 +0000 bunnylove08 1865669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH's best friend got us this for DD's first birthday and she LOVES it. it was great because we could push her around the neighborhood and when she is able to ride on her own she has a trike </p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Little-Tikes-Deluxe-Trike-Green/dp/B00AU0O786/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1410963147&#038;sr=8-2&#038;keywords=little+tikes+trike" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Little-Tikes-Deluxe-Trike-Green/dp/B00AU0O786/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1410963147&#038;sr=8-2&#038;keywords=little+tikes+trike</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ride-on-toy-for-1st-birthday#post-1865659 Wed, 17 Sep 2014 09:07:58 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 1865659@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Alivoo01: Did you find that it was tippy?

Maybe that's what we could get! Thanks for reminding me of that.</p> <p>I definitely want to get something that's going to last him a couple years though. How long did your kiddos use the cozy coupe? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ride-on-toy-for-1st-birthday#post-1865288 Tue, 16 Sep 2014 20:52:43 +0000 jetsa 1865288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@abbydabbydoodlebug: have you looked at a cozy coupe?

We have the Fisher Price fire truck and it has been a huge hit for the reason.

He is an energetic boy that is crawling all over the place and has taken a few steps and I think he'd really enjoy a ride on toy once he gets steady on his feet. He is pretty much average weight and height. I like the Prince Lionheart wheely bug and my DH likes the Y-bike. Which would you pick of those? Or something else? Our budget is max $100. </p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Prince-Lionheart-Wheely-Ladybug-Small/dp/B000GX0B3M/ref=sr_1_1?s=toys-and-games&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1410902357&#038;sr=1-1&#038;keywords=wheely+bug" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Prince-Lionheart-Wheely-Ladybug-Small/dp/B000GX0B3M/ref=sr_1_1?s=toys-and-games&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1410902357&#038;sr=1-1&#038;keywords=wheely+bug</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Pewi-Ybike-Ride-Walking-Buddy/dp/B004EIS6EQ/ref=sr_1_2?s=toys-and-games&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1410902357&#038;sr=1-2&#038;keywords=wheely+bug" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Pewi-Ybike-Ride-Walking-Buddy/dp/B004EIS6EQ/ref=sr_1_2?s=toys-and-games&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1410902357&#038;sr=1-2&#038;keywords=wheely+bug</a> </p>
