Why buy an original wheely bug?
Look, we're aware of copycat and cheaper imported versions that are out there, but they ain't no wheely bug! Here's what you need to know before making the purchase for your little one:

- Wheely Bugs are very safe and user friendly for children at the cusp of walking to post toddler.
- The bright and friendly designs are an instant attraction to both girls and boys alike.
- They go backwards, forwards, sideways, and round and round!
- Wheely Bugs promote gross motor skills from which all higher learning evolves.
- The bodies are padded and covered with a tough layer of polyurethane leatheroid that can be easily wiped clean.
- The base is made from sustainably sourced, plantation grown Poplar plywood and has safe ergonomic rounded contours.
- The "feelers" on some models which wobble and delight are made with stainless steel spring and have an internal limiter cord to prevent pull out.
- The handle is aluminum so it won't rust... all in all Wheely Bugs are constructed for years of fun!

Unlike Other Ride-ons
A disadvantage of most ride-on toys is the fact that, unlike the Wheely Bug, they are not on castors. Therefore, inferior ride-ons are more likely to get stuck when faced with an obstacle. Not so with the Wheely Bug. Aside from its cute, adorable image, the castors are its best feature. Wheely Bugs can move in any direction - forwards, backwards, sideways, round and round. They allow the Wheely Bug to spin at 360 degrees, making escape from a tight space easy.

Excellent Quality
The Wheely Bug screams quality. It is stylish and very well made. Unlike most other toys, the Wheely Bug looks good as it sits proudly in the corner of the room. In fact, it will quickly become part of the furniture. It is made from high quality components and has won multiple awards. The spongy seat is comfortable and made from pvc-free polyurethane leathroid. This means that it is very easy to wipe clean. The base is made from plantation grown poplar plywood and the handle is aluminium. The feelers are produced from stainless steel springs and are practically impossible to pull out. Younger children will enjoy watching them spring back and forth.

In fact, the Wheely Bug is so robust it is hard to imagine a child being able to break it at all. Wheely Bugs have a long life span. When the plastic cars and trikes are cracked, worn and broken, the superior Wheely Bug will still be going strong. It will last and last for all your children and beyond.

Great For Wooden & Laminate Floors
These days, many people have wooden and laminate flooring in their homes. It is on these types of surfaces that the Wheely Bug is in its element. It is also great on tiled floors. However, whilst it will still work on carpeted floors, the Wheely Bug will never reach its full potential. It is also an indoor toy - its wheel are simply not geared (nor are they meant to be) towards outdoor use.

What Size Wheely Bug Should I Buy?
Small Wheely Bugs are built for children between the ages of one to three years old, while large Wheely Bugs are for children three to five years old.
