3 Fantastic Toys for Kids on the Go


If your kid is a mover and a shaker who has already collected and torn through every toy car on the market, it’s probably time to start considering something a little sturdier—that also comes with a little more power than you might be expecting. Peg Perego makes battery-powered rough-and-tumble toy vehicles that can keep up with the fastest of kids.

These Peg Perego vehicles represent the biggest names in outdoor and work vehicles, like Polaris and John Deere. There are enough different models for almost any age and interest, from pre-school on up through the end of elementary school. Here are just a few of the many options Peg Perego has.

John Deere Tractor With Farm Trailer – Pedal Version

For younger kids with parents who aren’t quite ready to put them behind the wheel of a battery-powered vehicle, Peg Perego offers this pedal version of the iconic John Deere tractor. Complete with a hauling trailer attached at the back, this easy-to-pedal tractor is perfect for kids who like to get their hands dirty.

John Deere Farm Power Tractor With Trailer

A step up from the pedal-driven tractor, the farm power tractor runs on Peg Perego 12 volt batteries and reaches speeds of 4.5 miles per hour. The trailer has removable sides while the seat is adjustable, in order to help accommodate kids from 3-7 years of age.

John Deere Ground Force Tractor

At the top of the Peg Perego line of tractors is the John Deere Ground Force Tractor. This tractor has many of the same features as the Farm Power Tractor, and it also runs on a Peg Perego 12 volt battery. It also has a few luxury features, like a fully functional FM radio and flip-up armrests. It even has automatic brakes and four-wheel drive for the best riding experience possible.

3 Great Toys For Active Kids




When you have a kid who has more energy than you know what to do with, it can be difficult to find toys that can keep up with them. Most parents agree that it’s for the best if you can direct that energy outside of the house and into the open air. One great option you might not have considered: high-powered replicas of the best in hard-working vehicles.

For kids who want to play as hard as the grownups do, Peg Perego offers kid-sized tractors, all-terrain vehicles, and more, for kids between the ages of 1-10. Here are three Peg Perego examples—one for each age group.

For Toddlers: Rocky the Rocking Horse

For those kids that are just learning how to move, Peg Perego offers Rocky, the electric riding horse. Powered by a Peg Perego battery, Rocky replicates the experience of a mall rocking horse at home, except safer. Rocky is built to be low to the ground and stable for all of the wobbles and toddles a one year old can make.

For Preschoolers: The Polaris Outlaw

Just like the Polaris products you’ll find in stores for adults, the Outlaw is an all-terrain vehicle that runs over grass, gravel, dirt, and more. Driven by a Peg Perego 12 volt battery, this ATV offers speeds up to 5 mph—but don’t worry. If you’d rather your preschooler not go so fast, Peg Perego also provides adult lockout option to keep the speeds more reasonable. It also comes in both red and pink.

For Primary Schoolers: The Polaris Sportsman XP850

The Polaris Sportsman XP850 is everything you could want in an all-terrain vehicle—just smaller. Peg Perego pulled out all the stops with this one. It can reach speeds of 7 mph and even has a cup holder and an FM radio.
