Ever since we got our Ernie the Firetruck from WOW Toys, its been the hottest item around here. 7 months later and there is still a battle between the boys whenever its out. My opinion of WOW toys has only improved above an already 100% pleased review, as the firetruck has held up to a lot of hours and playtime and tossing down the stairs, and nothing has broken, chipped, scratched or malfunctioned.
 
Another opportunity to review a WOW toy? Jackpot! We were sent the Police Chase Charlie and Police Patrol Riders, and its basically felt like Christmas morning around here.
 
These are not just run-of-the-mill toys, people! Not just plastic and parts. This vehicles have inner gears that rev up and go, creating a toy that can move on its own without the need for batteries, and no obnoxious sirens or sounds. Holla. They each embody moving parts, several places to put toy people, vibrant paint, and friendly characterization.
They played like this for over an hour! These toys were definitely well-thought out. They are designed to work alone, or with other WOW toys, which all embody developmental benefits. They encourage social development, fine motor skills, problem solving, and the use of ideas & imagination! They really are developmentally appropriate for ages 1 1/2 to 5, so everyone’s happy…
…even the little guy, who is completely preoccupied with putting things inside other things.
Rocket spent the morning figuring all the parts and possibilities, and on his own discovered how to get the top of the car to lift by pushing in the gas button.
With so many parts and so many play scenarios, both boys can happily play together! Clearly, these toys can keep a 1-yr-old thoroughly engrossed, though the box does say ages 1.5-5 yrs old.
In my opinion, THESE are the toys I want to keep around. No way are these every being traded or sold at a yard sale, even 20 years from now. I don’t doubt they will still be as good as new for the grandkids. I know you’ll fall in love with these toys like we have!
