Ohhh boy, that looks like a pretty penny. Make SURE you check for recalls; I've heard that some of the Little Tykes toys have poisonous paint used on it

I think it'* good on the recall because it'* brand new. It'* not even on the Little Tyke'* or Toys R Us websites yet.

That'* the best part of having kids. They are happy you got them something, and you get to play with it.

Not sure about the horse power. Maybe she'll learn enough to help me add some to my next Bonnie.

And, in the store it was $100.00. which is about what we usually spend anyways. My kids are a bit spoiled.

It also comes with a small car you can build. [/url]

Tallbump: That is just TOO cool!!!

My twins (5 yrs old) birthdays are coming up in November... I can just see it playing out...

Me: Hey guys look what Daddy bought you!
Kids: What is it, Dad?
Me: An engine!! You can build it and tune it up!! Its so cool!
Kids: Huh? What else did you get me?

The kids will be pretendint they are "Steve Irwin: Croc Hunter" all day and I'll be playing with the Little Tykes Engine while my wife just looks on shaking her head.
