Ride on Toys

We know how difficult it is to find an electric ride on toy for children younger than three – smaller children love to feel like little grown-ups too, but typical electric riding toys are too big and too fast for younger riders. Many of us have small children, and we are well acquainted with the heart-in-your-throat feeling when your child is zipping along too fast or riding with older kids.

The Peg Perego Santa Fe Express offers a fun-filled answer for parents of adventurous younger toddlers. The Peg Perego line of battery powered ride on toys will delight any child, and the Santa Fe Express was a particular favorite of our little engineers.

Peg Perego toys have been top choices for parents and children since 1949, and their electric series was a welcome addition to the line. We like the innovative designs and variety, and our experts (kids, of course!) love the fun colors, sounds, and independence of these battery powered ride on toys. Kids know what they like, and hands down, they liked the Peg Perego Santa Fe Express. The ride on train has features designed especially for younger riders: the rechargeable 6V battery allows for speeds up to two miles per hour, which is ideal for beginners and for parents who are trying to keep up; the encased gear box and wiring prevents injuries and accidents to little fingers; small children can easily operate the on/off switch; and the realistic train sounds will provide for hours of fun and excitement.

In addition, the Peg Perego Santa Fe Express comes equipped with its own 76 inch circular track. This adds to both the realism and to the safety, which is unmatched by other electric ride on toys. When your child masters the challenge of the track, the Santa Fe Express also runs on any hard surfaces, which instantly expands your child’s play options. We liked this because it makes the Santa Fe Express fun for an eighteen month old as well as a three year old. Whenever you can buy a toy that will keep your child’s attention and outlast any rough toddler usage, you have found a winner.

Peg Perego toys became industry leaders when they began construction ride on toys from durable plastic, replacing the traditional – and rust prone – metal models. This keeps your child’s toy looking new for years, and it also ups the safety quotient yet again. No more pinched fingers or cuts from sharp metal edges. And, we all know that looks matter, too, when it comes to toys – the bright red, green, and bold brown colors are eye-catching, and the detailing adds to the sense of fun and realism.

The Peg Perego Santa Fe Express is a great buy for younger children, and it is an economical choice as well. The price is right for your budget, and since the toy will last for years, it is an investment that is well worth it. You can even pass it on to younger siblings or friends.
