From the moment we opened it and put it together which only took my husband about 5 minutes, my daughter was off and riding.
There is no batteries needed for this little sweetie. PlasmaCar runs on kid power which in this economy is a great thing. Batteries are just too expensive.
I have tried to use it myself and was unable to but the kids can get it moving in right away.
We took it with us to the school playground, a friend's driveway, my kitchen floor and my deck and the kids could ride it on all surfaces.
You have to appreciate a toy that is durable, holds up to 220 pounds, is quiet and saves us on batteries. Love that!
I bothers me when I hear my daughter say, this doll, bear, truck doesn't do anything. When I was a kid, the toys required something from me in order to work. Now that all the toys are electronic kids are spoiled and expect the bells and whistles. Plasma car, is like a visit to my childhood. It works on kid power and there is nothing wrong with that!
I believe this would be a great therapy workout for Occupational Therapists to use with their students. You have to use your hands and your core muscles need to be engaged to get moving. I am going to suggest this to my son's occupational therapist.
Thanks for the review and the giveaway links--I went and entered both :)
