interesting


Here is the write-up on this really well done indoor ride-on. " It can be used as a speeding motorcycle, a galloping horse or even a balance beam (when mom’s not looking). the open ended design allows kids to bring their imagination to life and create an experience all their own. its large size allows for two kids to grab a hold and take off. it is constructed from durable molded ply as strong the log that inspired it. Get ready to rock."

Unfortunately this just is not how kids have played in at least 50 years...if ever. I think it is hopelessly optimistic to think that a kid is going to have that active of an imagination and I am not sure of the idea that it is inspired by a log. Do kids still play with logs? It would have been a lot more reasonable for them to say that it uses materials that look more comfprtable and sophisticated in the home and provides fun play without crapping up the parents aesthetic.
