Peg Perego Riding Toys Let Kids Pretend To Be Big



All little boys and girls want to be big before their time, especially when they see mom or dad driving the car. They all wish they could do the same, and with the many available Peg Perego riding toys, they can pretend to be as big as they want to, all through their childhood.

Living the country dream

For toddlers of all ages and sizes, they can now live out their dreams of being farmers or cowboys and cowgirls, just by playing with one of the Peg Perego riding toys designed just for their size. The rocking horse lets boys and girls live out their dreams of being riders, chasing livestock or rustlers, just like the big people in the movies. The tractors available in the same lines offer safe rides around the yard, going no more than 2 miles per hour.

On your mark, set, race!

Another object of admiration to little kids are their bigger brothers and sisters, and all those big kid bikes and cars they get to drive. With the many Peg Perego bikes and cars, they can fly just like their older siblings, but at a much safer speed. For ages from 3 and up, the speed is determined by the voltage of the battery, from 6 volt to 24 volts, and the only limit to their fun is the life of the battery, and their imagination. Helmets, of course, are required, for safety, and very young children should be supervised while they race around.

Undeniably the most popular line of driving and riding toys for children, all models see a lot of use over the years, and owners may think that Peg Perego parts that fit them may go out of style or be hard to replace. Luckily, that is simply not true, and the majority of replacement and repair parts are still available from the manufacturer, and a host of distributors today. A simple search on the Internet will also reveal the names of businesses certified to repair and replace these parts, most of which can be easily found in your area.

Save money with kits

A lot of the certified repair centers that carry Peg Perego parts will offer some kits that can be used on any model of their battery driven vehicles, no matter how old. The first kit is known as an overhaul kit, and is geared towards cleaning up and repairing older models that have not been used in some time. This makes purchasing older models on auction sites a bargain, because it contains all the necessary electronics.

The upgrade kit contains replacement Peg Perego parts to bring any older model into line with the current styles available. This means that you can use this kit to upgrade an older Polaris truck, and have it be able to take the current lines of batteries without much fuss, a godsend if it was originally a 6 or 12v that can now be converted over to a 24v, with charger included.

For Older Kids, Peg Perego Battery Driven Vehicles Rule!



One of the most popular children’s gifts for holidays and birthdays are the many Peg Perego battery driven vehicles. Good for toddlers and older kids, they come in a variety of styles and types, and guaranteed to last a long time. They all have great safety features, so that parents need not worry about their children riding for hours, or until the batteries run down. Your best bet when purchasing them, because they are so much fun, is to buy a second battery to use while the first one is in the supplied charger.

Speeds for all ages

Another great thing about Peg Perego battery driven vehicles is that they come in a variety of speeds, gauged to the recommended ages of their riders. For toddlers, a particular favorite is the ride-on train, complete with track, that is aged for three year olds and older, because it runs on only a 6 volt battery, so its speed is relatively low. Speeds can be adjusted on other models, to ensure a safe ride for all ages.

Older kids prefer the Peg Perego battery driven vehicles that simulate cars, trucks, jeeps and construction equipment. These vehicles for older children are more than just something to ride in all around the yard, but also a vehicle full of educational opportunities. They help your child develop their confidence and responsibility, as well as learning how vehicles work in the adult world. By having them help maintain it, they also learn to value their toys.

The Importance Of Getting A Proper Peg Perego Charger For The Kids



The line of riding toys available today from this prominent manufacturer are good for entertaining kids as young as three, up to the age of 10 or more, depending on their size, and tastes. One crucial piece of equipment required for all of these toys is the Peg Perego charger that matches the battery used by the model you purchase. Without one, their patented batteries will not recharge properly, and may not fit into any other manufacturer’s chargers well enough to charge.

Reasons to get the right equipment

Having a Peg Perego charger on hand means that you will be able to safely charge all matching batteries produced by them, as long as the voltage matches the type of battery you want to charge. The patented designs used to create the electrical systems for their vehicles may prohibit using any other manufacturer’s batteries, because they are designed to be handled by both adults and children, and are shaped accordingly for the smaller hands of children.

The odd sizes of their batteries also requires that you have the right Peg Perego charger for that battery. As the voltage goes up, so does the size of the battery, so a 6 volt will not fit properly in a 12 volt charger, and the 24 volt will definitely not fit in either of those. Some vehicles come with the charger, for an additional fee, but you can also purchase them separately, along with extra batteries, in case it gets damaged, or accidentally lost.

The Perego Charger And Other Accessories For Riding Toys



The popularity of finely crafted riding toys and accessories for the many lines of Peg Perego vehicles for kids has led to a widening of distributors, and repair centers over the last few years. Here you can get any Perego charger for your needs, as well as extra batteries and a host of other accessories to improve the level of fun for children of all ages.

Accessories and batteries

Among the many accessories available besides the many Perego charger options are additional track sets for their riding trains. These include intersecting pieces that you can add to the original 76 x 93 round track, and tracks that can form figure eights for more fun. There are also cars that you can add to tow stuff around, and riders. An optional sound system can be added to create real life train sounds that operate at the touch of a button. For the other vehicles, trailers can be added to tow stuff around easily, as well as additional riders.

The many Perego charger options are color coded to match the batteries they charge. This way, your child can quickly learn what it takes to keep his toy going, and can even help you fit the battery to the charger when it needs to be done. The 6 volt charger takes the green battery, the 12 volt the blue, and the 24 volt takes yellow. They are all quick chargers, with charge times ranging from 2 hours to eight, depending on the voltage.
