The sellers of this fine Mini Rickshaw envision it being a lot of fun for two kids. In theory that would seem right. But having just spent a weekend with a bunch of my brother’s kids, what I envision is a toy that will have the kids fighting in no time. The only solution is to take it away from them or give them rides yourself. So unless you are looking at getting a lot of exercise or yelling incessantly, stick to individual toys.

Some kids dream of monster trucks and race cars and get radio control versions to complete the fantasy. But if your life’s desire is to be a Zamboni driver you can now fulfill that fantasy as well. Nothing like the ability to make smooth ice to get all your friends jealous.

This is a great educational toy for your kid. Explain the scenario to him:
- Build a large wooden rabbit
- Leave it by the door to the enemy castle
- Have all of your people hide in the woods and watch the enemy drag it inside their castle
- Jump out of the rabbit when no one is looking
See if they can find the flaw in the plan. Once they have made their choice, they get to watch the whole Monty Python movie and find out if they are right.
