We like this Fisher-Price Bounce & Spin Zebra ride-on toy because it allows toddlers (ages 1-3) to exercise and be active indoors without causing too much “commotion.” By age 1 or a bit older, your grandchild should be able to climb on/off the zebra unassisted, or with a bit of help. Coordination and balance are then developed, as she or he learns to bounce and turn 360 degrees. The handlebar has a rolling ball activity with lights and music to nurture hand-eye coordination, and sounds reward various movements (volume is controllable or the toy can be turned off). The zebra’s wide, sturdy base is stable and supportive, even with energetic bouncing and spinning — and it locks until its passenger is seated properly. Winner of the Toys ‘R Us Hot Toy Award in 2006.
