Zoom zoom zoom watch out here comes that little tike he nearly knocked you over on the school playground.

Little tikes cosy coupe cars have been around in school playgrounds for years. The company was founded in 1970. About the same time as I began my career in childcare.
I think the cosy coupe has been around for nearly that long, as I seem to recall children playing with them forever.

The cosy coupe is a red car with a yellow roof. This car is for 1 only, no passenger seat. It is foot powered not pedal powered the child sits in it and scoots the car around. Access is on one side it has a door that opens. At school we have the older basic version there is a new model. I read the littletikes page www.littletykes.com.

The new model has a higher back and an ignition switch also a petrol tank with a lid that opens and closes. Also stick on number plate numbers the black tyres are very durable. The car comes ready to assemble the roof needs to be fitted to the body and the wheels attached before it is ready to be used.
This car is suitable for a child about 1 .1/2-2yrs old until they are 5 or 6 yrs old.

Because it is a fairly big car it is best for outside. It can be used in a large hall.
Best to keep this car under cover at night as it can collect puddles of rain on the seat.
I like this car I have seem many children happily playing in one
It is good for children who have not or cannot acquire the peddling skill Children scoot it along with their feet.

Thanks for reading, Watch out that you do not get run over by that child while you are watching others play. Have fun playing with your children Best wishes Mary
