Each type of toy, whether it's a ride-on toy, stacking toy, role-play toy or cuddly toy, has an important role to play in developing motor, cognitive and social/emotional skills in your children. Here are some of the key benefits of ride-on toys.


Help in developing fine and gross motor skills

A huge number of different styles of ride-on toys are available for children but all of them tend to be great to develop both fine and gross motor skills. Gross motor skills involve whole-body movement and movement of the larger muscles. Gross motor skills need coordination and building pathways between muscles and the brain. They are related to balance and core strength and this is how they become able to move in a coordinated way.


Acquiring their ability to balance

Balance is a pivotal skill children need to learn. Developing a good balance helps

them in all sorts of sports and other activities as they grow.


Encourage their physical exercise

When you give your children a ride-on toy this means moving your legs to gain momentum and thus engaging your core for balance and using your arms to steer. So it’s a practical way for children to acquire the moving ability. When your children use their bodies it helps them build strength in both muscles and bones and is good

for the heart and lungs. Building a foundation at a young age also makes it more likely that they will continue with exercise as they grow older. High-quality ride-on toys like 24v ride-on cars are available from Oitek products. They have a huge collection available in different price ranges.


Starting from walking to being in charge of your own set of wheels is a huge confidence boost for your little one. Plus it offers you the opportunity to move faster and further than they would be able before.
