Looking for the best ride-on horse toy for your child? Be sure to add the PonyCycle® Pony Ride-On to your shopping list.
Looking for the best ride-on horse toy for your child? Be sure to add the PonyCycle®Pony Ride-On to your shopping list. Whether for a birthday or holiday gift idea, this fun mechanical horse provides hours of entertainment and a realistic riding experience for children ages 3-12 — one of our picks for the best holiday gift for kids 2021.
I’m sure you’ve seen them before — at your local mall, play areas or neighborhood park— kids trotting along with their beautiful, realistic-looking pony. You may think it’s a cross between your typical rolling ride-on and electrically-powered vehicle, but this pony cycle ride-on is quite a unique experience. Powered by human motion simulation, the ride on horse operates a little differently than others and provides as close to the real experience as possible.
What is the PonyCycle®Ride-on and How Does it Work?
The PonyCycle®Ride-on is a plush mechanical riding horse, unlike the traditional rocking horse that stays in one place. Kids sit on the saddle, hold the handles and tread on the pedals. As they move in a bounce-like motion and the seat raises, the horse’s legs fold. When the rider comes down and releases the pedals the horse’s legs spread and advances the pony forward. When done continuously it creates a gallop motion, as if your child is riding a real horse!
Why Your Kid Will Love the PonyCycle®Ride On Horse Toy
If you’re wondering whether the PonyCycle®toy is worth the investment here are a few factors to consider.
Unique Gift Idea
The pony cycle ride-on is really like no other ride-on toy. Unlike, the stationary horse rocker that only moves back in forth, this ride on horse glides forward with your child’s movements, however they like, without batteries or charging needed.
Realistic Features The quality pony features hair and fur that is made to look like a real horse. The newer models include redesigned ears, eyes, and face shape — the head mold is 3D carved so it looks more vivid. Plus, with the mechanical galloping movements and sounds, kids can feel like they are really learning to ride a pony!
Safe Ride-On Options
With the advancements (listed below) Pony Cycle aims to keep the ride-on safe for little ones. Not only are there separate ponies for younger (3-5 years old) and older children (4-9 years old), the newer models include safety brakes. Now the pony can stop when your child wants.
Safety one-way wheels make it less accident-prone and smoother to ride. Plus, the pedals are non-slip so your little one can ride with ease.
PonyCycle®Model U 2021 Improvements
The newest PonyCycle®, Model U 2021, features many updates and functions in sound, wheels, and brakes from the original.
If you’ve read reviews for the original Pony Cycle, it’s important to note a few improvements made.
For starters, the pony ride-on now includes brakes to keep your child safer. Simply squeeze the handlebars to bring the horse to a stop. This addition is one of the breakthroughs among mechanical riding horses to keep your little ones safer on the go.
Another improvement is the upgraded wheels for a smoother and silent ride. The larger contact area provides a more stable use. And one of the biggest changes from the previous model N to the new model U, is the integrated wheels to end the noise of stop rings.
Also, with a touch of a button kids can make the ride-on horse come to life with neighing and galloping sounds.
Although there are a variety of pony toys out there, the PonyCycle®is the original world-powered mechanical ride on horse that brings tons of fun, entertainment, and laugher from little to older kids. Whether you have a pony-lover or active child who simply enjoys ride-on toys, kids will remember this one as one of the best holiday gifts yet!

Choosing the right size of PonyCycle toy is important for your kid to have a safe and pleasant riding. This article aims to help you make the right decision by introducing two important ways of size choosing. We will also let you know how to accommodate using our Pedal Pads.
Choose by Age and Weight
From toddlers to teenagers, children need and deserve exercise. As kid-powered riding toy, PonyCycle® not only let kids coordinate and improve motor skills but also allow them to imagine and have fun. To benefit children of all ages, we offer various size options based on children’s age: -Size 3 for age 3-5 (max weight 55 lbs) -Size 4 for age 4-8 (max weight 88 lbs) -Size 5 for age 7+ (max weight 176 lbs)
In most cases, you can choose the right size according to your child’s age. However, every child is different and sometimes age is not a perfect indicator of body size. Therefore, you should also refer to other indicators such as the child’s weight, height and more accurately, the inseam.
Choose by Inseam and Height
Unlike bikes, our product requires kids to pedal with both feet at the same time. So the best size for your child is the size that fits him or her from day one. And the best way to choose the right size is considering both the child’s height and inseam.
It is important that your kid’s inseam is no shorter than the distance between the pony’s saddle and pedal. This way, the kid can reach the pedals well and ride comfortably. You can match the pony size with your kid’s size by referring to the size chart below.
How to Measure Inseam
Simply speaking, inseam is the distance from the floor to a person’s crotch. If you are not clear about your kid’s inseam length, please refer to the steps below to measure properly.
Address In-Between Size Issues
When your child is in between sizes, you must be hesitant about choosing the small one or the big one. The smaller pony rides more comfortable but would turn too small for your kid soon. Comparatively speaking, the bigger pony can accompany your kid longer but may require additional efforts for the kid to pedal at the beginning. No worries, we’ve got you covered with ourPedal Pad.
Designed for easier riding with bigger ponies, the Pedal Pads can give kids more controlled, efficient stroke before they grow to the perfect height for their pony.
Which Pony Size Fits when Pedal Pads are Applied
When you are choosing a new PonyCycle® U product and decide to use Pedal Pads to address the in-between size issues, you should take inseam length and effective pedal height into consideration.
Measure your kid’s inseam.
Add the effective pedal height to the inseam length and get a result.
Use this result as the final inseam and refer to the KID & PONY SIZE CHART for a right choice.

As a mother of a toddler, it’s not a rare occurrence to hear a request for a real horse or pony. It’s not just a cliche situation, it really happens!
]]>
As a mother of a toddler, it’s not a rare occurrence to hear a request for a real horse or pony. It’s not just a cliche situation, it really happens! A live, large animal will not work for us, for a couple reasons. One, we don’t have the property to raise a horse. Two, it takes every part of me to take care of my 7 children. My dog is lucky she’s even around and my house plants just had to go. No more living things allowed, at least for the time being. Thankfully, I found a pretty cool non-living replacement, PonyCycle ride-on animals.
Have you heard of PonyCycle® ride on horse toys? It’s a battery-free, ride-on stuffed animal that propels itself forward by a simple up and down movement. It comes in two different sizes and you can choose from a line of horses, unicorns, or a zebra. You may have seen them in malls for kids to rent and ride, or even being promoted by different celebrities, like the Kardashian sisters. I’m going to give you the full scoop today, so you can see for yourself how clever and fun these PonyCycle® toys are. We’ve had so much fun with ours. They would make an awesome Christmas or birthday gift!
PONYCYCLE® RIDE ON PONY TOY
Every year, I rack my brain, trying to think of the most perfect Christmas or birthday gift for my kids. Typically, I will get them a few smaller items, and then one, big special toy. This ride-on horse totally fit the bill. It’s super simple and fun to ride! Even my older kids (and the neighborhood friends) are anxious to get a turn. And with free shipping within the continental United States, that was a huge selling point for me, especially for a package of that size!
When the box first arrived, I was a little hesitant to open it. I have a huge disdain for putting things together. I was imaging bags of labeled screws, a confusing instruction booklet, and horse body parts strewn across the floor. It was such a relief that it was not like that at all. Furniture companies could learn a thing or two from PonyCycle®! It was literally the stuffed horse head and the horse body in the box. I slid the head onto the battery, zipped the zipper, and it was ready to ride! That’s my kind of of purchase.
SO MUCH BETTER THAN BATTERY POWERED RIDE ON TOYS
We have owned a battery powered ride on car, and let me tell you… those things are a pain, not to mention, a money-pit. They are constantly running out of batteries or the batteries are just completely going dead, all together. Eventually, we get to the point where we are giving it away, for free, because we’re sick of charging it, the charger broke, or the battery needs to be replaced. I’m telling you… a ride on without the need for batteries, is the way to go. The PonyCycle® horse (or unicorn!) is a dream come true… as mentioned above, it propels forward simply by moving the body up and down on the saddle, with feet on the pedals. It really is pretty impressive how it works! My kids like to take it to the church parking lot to ride all over, but they even ride it all around the house too.
There are several styles to choose from, in two different lines:
THE CLASSIC MODEL U
Battery free
Feels like riding a real horse, with the galloping motion, steers left and right
Great for indoor or outdoor use
Wheels don’t roll backwards
So easy to assemble. Just attach the head!

THE PREMIUM MODEL K

Wheels don’t roll backwards
So easy to assemble. Just attach the head!
Soft plush
PONYCYCLE® UNICORN ~ THE RIDE ON UNICORN IS A MUST-HAVE FOR PRINCESSES
I was torn on which PonyCycle® toy to choose. I knew that my little gal would be so excited about the ride on unicorn. They’re so pretty and she’s such a girly-girl, that a unicorn toy is right up her ally. In the Classic U Series, you can choose between a pink or white unicorn. And, in the Premium K series, there is an embellished purple and white unicorn, with a beautiful purple tiara.
THE RIDE ON HORSE TOY IS PERFECT FOR YOUR LITTLE COWBOY OR COWGIRL
Despite my adoration of the unicorn and knowing that my daughter would swoon over it, I decided on the ride on horse toy, for a couple reasons. First, she loves horses almost as much as unicorns. She’s always fascinated any time we see a real horse and has always longed to ride one. And second, she is my youngest child and when she grows out of her PonyCycle® horse, we will be passing it on to my nephew… and, I already know he is a huge fan of horses.
So, let’s talk ride on horses for a minute. In the Classic U Series, there are 3 horses to choose from: dark brown horse, tan horse, or black horse. And in the Premium K Series, there is the dark brown horse or a tan horse (those ones have the prettiest mane too!) If you’re lucky, you can even snag the ride on zebra, if it’s in stock.
PONYCYCLE® SIZES ~ SMALL AND MEDIUM HORSES, UNICORNS, AND ZEBRA
Besides the different styles of horse ride on toys and unicorns, PonyCycle® offers their products in two sizes, small and medium. My toddler just turned 3. I was torn about whether I should get her the small or size up and get the medium. After a lot of deliberation, I opted for the medium, knowing that her older brothers would want to ride it and it would give her many more years of use. At this point she can just barely reach the peddles, but it’s enough for her to ride the horse. A small would be the most perfect right now and if she wasn’t sharing, I think that would have been the best size.
Size 3
Recommended for ages 3 to 5 years old
Weight Limit – 55 lbs
Product Dimensions – 29.5″ l x 13.8″ w x 30″

ONE OF THE BEST RIDE ON TOYS FOR TODDLERS
I totally recommend PonyCycle® if you’re looking for a ride on toy for toddlers, even for older kids. It’s one of those gifts that will light their eyes up and they’ll have so much fun with. My little girl doesn’t just see it as a ride on, her horse is another one of her stuffed animal friends. She’s always hugging it, petting it, and even giving her Barbies a ride… when she can get it away from her old brother. It’s definitely a winner!

Unlike the traditional rocking horse which keeps the rider in one spot, PonyCycle® allows kids to ride wherever they want, it rides just like a real pony.

The rider holds the handle, the seat raises when tread on the pedals, the horse legs will fold, and then release the pedals, the horse legs spread and propel the PonyCycle® forward in a galloping motion. In this way, it makes PonyCycle® ride like a real horse. You can also steer it left or right by moving the head with the handles. Safe and funny.
One of the best things about the PonyCycle® walking pony toy is that not only does it make a wonderful toy, it’s also a great form of exercise.

Make your child’s dream come true and enjoy seeing the joy on their face.
How does PonyCycle® work?
The rider sits on the raised seat, and gravity causes the seat to move downwards. At the same time, the front legs of the horse are forward and the hind legs are backward. Therefore, the human body descends, the knees bend, and at the same time, the waist is arched, the body is leaning forward, the hands push out the handles, and the arms straighten.
Legs tread on the pedals hard, the body rises, the seat is released, and the front and rear legs of the horse close. The human body is supported by the saddle, the legs are straightened, and the hands are pulled back. The waist returns to straight, showing a state of chest and head up.
Then, the rider sits back on the saddle, and the power is transmitted back and forth to achieve smooth riding movements.
Why do Pony Cycles have Raised Seat?
When you read here, you may already found out that the raised seat is core of riding like a real pony! It provides the sense of ups and downs when riding. While the no-saddle horse not able to fulfill this at all.
Ergonomic Raised Seat is the one of the key points for PonyCycle®. It plays a vital role in smooth riding experience.
It is also the important power source, making it easier for kids to drive the pony and enjoy riding.
Scientific data calculates a labor-saving and comfortable riding method, the raised seat providing effective support for kids during riding.
And the material of the seat is memory foam with good resilience, which is comfortable and soft.
What’s more, after upgraded the saddle structure, the seat now is more robust and durable.

PONYCYCLE RIDE-ON PONY REVIEW: IS IT WORTH IT?
I am always on the lookout for the latest and greatest toys, especially ones that make good gifts (we're always looking for gift ideas, right?). Well, I found one of the best ride-on toys out there, and it's called PonyCycle®!
What is PonyCycle®?
PonyCycle® is a ride-on plush pony (it comes in other animal varieties, too, including a zebra and unicorn, just to name a few). No batteries, no electrical charges- it's powered totally by the rider, moving up and down with their feet on the pedals. You can also steer it left or right by moving the head with the handles. How cool is that?
You might have seen PonyCycle® in rental facilities, where you can pay a fee to try them out (usually at malls or shopping centers). But you can own your very own PonyCycle®, too.
PonyCycle® is a great way to get exercise. They can even help improve balance and coordination, at least in this mom's opinion! All you have to do is push on those little pedals that you see in the photo below.
PonyCycle® comes in various sizes and there are different series (some with light-up wheels, fancier saddles and manes, etc.). The PonyCycle® we tested out was the medium sized classic PonyCycle® in light brown with white hooves. He is recommended for ages 4-8.
Things to Note About PonyCycle®:
-There is some minor assembly required. PonyCycle® arrives in pieces so the head needs to be fixed onto the body. Instructions were clear and we didn't have any problems with assembly.
-PonyCycle® is well made and sturdy, so it is not something that can easily tip over or fall. It operates with a simple up and down movement that any child can do. You don't need to pedal like a bicycle, just push the pedals to get it to move.
-Despite what you might think, it does not scratch floors. We have hardwood floors and my son has been riding this thing all over the place! Not a single scratch. It can also go over our dining room carpet, although it is a little more challenging to push forward on it than the floor.
-You can take PonyCycle® outdoors but it's not meant to be left outside, so just be sure to park it in your 'corral' when you're done with your ride, 'pardner!
My son is 10 and I did not expect him to fall in love with Pony Cycle. I thought he was 'too big' for it and 'too grown up.' I couldn't have been more wrong! My kiddo loves this pony. He's been riding it in circles all over the house, even up to the refrigerator.
I love that he can play indoors on it in bad weather, and get exercise on rainy, cold or snowy days.
PonyCycle® is a conversation starter- everyone who visits wants to try it out! Accept no imitations. There are other pony ride-on toys out there, but in my opinion, PonyCycle® is the best of the best.

https://shop.ponycycle.com/blogs/news/the-best-human-powered-ride-on-toy-for-little-kids-and-big-kids2022-01-12T18:25:14-08:002024-01-21T20:57:12-08:00The Best Human-Powered Ride On Toy for Little Kids and Big KidsTianfang Ling
When my kids were toddlers they discovered ride on toys and loved them so much! We had all sorts of different ride on toys for them to use, some we bought and some we got from friends. But as they grew older, our options for ride on toys were less and less.
Around the age of 5 we stopped getting ride on toys because our kids were too big for them, which was disappointing given how much they enjoyed these toys. That is, until a few months ago when my 6 year old saw a little kid riding a large unicorn. I was intrigued, it looked like the perfect ride on for older kids so I started looking into this toy.
I discovered thatPonyCycle®is a human-powered ride-on toy, meaning it doesn’t use batteries nor needs a charger. It also comes in different sizes, so you can get this ride on toy for toddlers all the way up to older kids. I was sold!
Now that we have had this toy for a while I wanted to share with you our experience with this Unicorn PonyCycle® so you can figure out if this is the right toy for your child.
What is a PonyCycle®?
PonyCycle®is a ride on toy for kids, but it’s different than any other ride on toy you’ve encountered. It’s very unique in how it works:PonyCycle® is the first ride on toy powered by human motion. In other words, it doesn’t require batteries nor electricity, all it need is your child’s body movement to make it move.
I absolutely love this feature because it encourages physical activity, which is so needed in children.
PonyCycle® comes in 3 different shapes and multiple different colors. You can get a PonyCycle® Unicorn, a PonyCycle® Horse or a PonyCycle® Zebra.
PonyCycle® also comes in 3 sizes– it’s designed kids ages 3 and up but depending on your toddler’s size, a younger child could also ride it.
These are the three sizes available. Here you can see the PonyCycle® ride on horse in each size:
What sizes does the PonyCycle® come in?
ThePonyCycle® ride on toycomes in three sizes!Their largest size is their newest size and it just came out on 01/01/2022.
Size 3:
This is the smallest size, for children ages 3-5 years old and up to 55lbs.
Size 4:
This is their medium size, for children ages 4-9 years old and up to 88lbs. This is the model we received and the one you see pictured on this post with my 6 and 9 year old kids.
Size 5:
This is also known as the PonyCycle® large as this is their largest model. It’s suitable for children 7 and up, up to 176lbs. This model is big enough for me to ride it! I’m pretty excited about the idea of getting a ride on toy that my kids and I can ride.
I love that PonyCycle® comes in different sizes because most ride on toys are made for little kids but big kids loved them too!
What features does the PonyCycle® come with?
The PonyCycle® looks like a unicorn, horse or zebra (depending on what you chose). And there are two models for each of these animals, model U and model K.
The model we reviewed is the Unicorn PonyCycle® model U 2021 so when looking at our video or pictures, that’s the one you’re seeing.
Model U 2021 features:
Brakes:
It comes with a hand brake, just like the one you find on bikes. I found this to be such an important feature and I’m so glad it comes with this. We ride our PonyCycle® outdoors and this is feature comes in very handy outside. The brake is also very to use and doesn’t require lots of strength to operate – perfect for a child.
Updated wheels:
The current model comes with wheels that are perfect for a smoother ride. You don’t hear the wheels move and when your child rides it, you can see how smooth they move.
The PonyCycle® rolls easily on both indoor and outdoor surfaces, including carpets. We’ve used it in our home, on sidewalks and streets and the wheels have rolled smoothly on all surfaces.
Non-slip pedals:
This is a useful feature so your child’s foot doesn’t slip off the pedal. The pedal is part of the process to get this ride on toy moving so it’s very useful to have non-slip pedals. We’ve used these pedals even with smooth sandals and have had no issues.
Realistic sounds:
My youngest child is obsessed with the sounds! The PonyCycle® model U 2021 comes with a small red button on the head, when the kids press this button it makes neighing and galloping sounds. It’s also great when riding outdoors because it alerts others that the PonyCycle® is coming!
The only PonyCycle® that doesn’t come with sounds is the Zebra, but both the Unicorn and Horse models make sounds.
Model K features:
The model K is pricier than the U model because this PonyCycle® model has a more luxurious appearance and is made with different materials.
These are the main differences for the model K PonyCycle®:
The plush is more soft and cuddly.
The PonyCycle® come with more accessories. For example, the Unicorn comes with a flower crown on this model.
The pedals are made out of chrome and rubber and have different colors.
The wheels light up, without the need of batteries.
The only downside is that this model doesn’t come with brakes nor makes sounds, so in my opinion the model U 2021 is the one to get.
Keep in mind thatPonyCycle® sells accessories, so if you want to customize even more your ride, you can get accessories like a brush, gown, bows, ribbons, rein, etc., and even a Christmas outfit.
How does PonyCycle® work?
It took my child a literal minute to figure out how to operate her Unicorn PonyCycle®.
Once they sit on the PonyCycle® the weight of their body pushes down the middle structure, which propels to PonyCycle® ride on forward. This movements makes the foot pedals come up, and once they’re up, your child pushes the pedals down and it propels the PonyCycle® forward more.
When your child makes this movements over and over again the PonyCycle® moves forward with ease. The motion is very simple and a child can figure it out on its own.
Check this video review so you can see how it moves or scroll to our review so you can see how my kids use our PonyCycle®.
PonyCycle® also comes with handles on each side so that your child can steer the ride. It also comes with a break. I found this feature to be useful when we were riding it on the sidewalks. It was very easy for my kid to stop her PonyCycle® and wait for me.
I absolutely LOVE that the PonyCycle® is powered by their body motions. I think it’s important for kids to get physical activity every day and this is one fun way to do that!
Is it easy to set up your PonyCycle® or does it take many hours?
It’s actually really easy to set up your PonyCycle® once you receive it. As a busy parent, I really appreciate this. I dread having to spend hours putting a toy together for our child on holidays and birthdays. However, it only too my husband about 5 minutes to set up our PonyCycle®!
My kids were so excited to try this toy, I was relieved to see how easy set up was!
All you have to do is attach the head to the body, zip it up and then remove a tag in a battery compartment. By removing this tag the PonyCycle® can make realistic sounds, like neighing and galloping.
How do you turn on a PonyCycle®?
I was asked this question a few times so I wanted to address it. The PonyCycle® is human powered, which means there is no on and off button since it doesn’t require batteries.
All your child has to do is sit on it and off they go.
The only batteries this toy requires is to make sounds. However, your PonyCycle® already comes with the batteries for this function so there’s no need to purchase batteries. All you have to do is set up the toy, remove the tag on the battery compartment (if you want the ride on toy to make sounds) and start using.
PonyCycle® Unicorn Review – Is it worth it?
Now that you know all the features PonyCycle® has to offer, it’s time for our review.
Let’s address the first thing,PonyCycle®is a pricy toy but after seeing the quality of the toy, how well made it is, how smooth is the ride and how the kids love it, I think it’s worth the price.
Not only are my kids very excited about this toy, even after weeks of using it, but every time we use it outdoors all the kids come up to us to ask us if they can try it. It’s a kid magnet for sure and so far it’s attracted kids of all ages!
PonyCycle® is one of those toys that’s made to last and that can be used by multiple children and passed down to the younger kiddos. If you’re looking for the best birthday gift in 2022, this is it!
Our family really loves this toy, the only problem I’ve had is that both kids want to use it at the same time when we take it outside. We only have one PonyCycle® so we use it with a timer to make sure both kids can ride it for the same amount of time.
My youngest child also uses it to go from one room to the next. We live in an apartment and our space is small so I wasn’t expecting us to use it indoors as much, but the PonyCycle® is the right size for indoor use too and my kid rides on it every single day.
It makes us laugh every time she shows up riding her pony. It is the cutest thing! If you watch my Instagram stories you’ve most likely seen her riding it inside our apartment.
If you live in a bigger home, this toy is going to get so much use! If it gets this much use in our small apartment I can only image how much kids would use it in a bigger space.
I’ve also noticed that the PonyCycle® does well both on our hardwood floors and carpets. It takes a little more body effort to move it on the carpet than on hardwood floors, but it’s still pretty smooth and easy for my kids to use it on carpet.
I was also impressed with its performance outdoors. We have a huge parking lot we ride it on and it rides so smoothly!
The best way to find out if PonyCycle® is the right toy for your child is to see it in action. Check out our video review here:
As you can see we absolutely love this toy, and in my opinion, it is the best ride on toy! My kids are obsessed with it and have so much fun riding their Unicorn PonyCycle®. I honestly don’t think you can regret making this purchase and the best part is that you can have this toy for years, so you’ll definitively get your money’s worth!
I love that we finally found a ride on toy my kids can use!
PonyCycle® also offers a payment plan, so you can buy this toy in 4 interest-free installments.
Happy riding!

® Pony Ride-On to your shopping list.
Looking for the best ride-on horse toy for your child? Be sure to add the PonyCycle® Pony Ride-On to your shopping list. Whether for a birthday or holiday gift idea, this fun mechanical horse provides hours of entertainment and a realistic riding experience for children ages 3-12 — one of our picks for the best holiday gift for kids 2021.
I’m sure you’ve seen them before — at your local mall, play areas or neighborhood park— kids trotting along with their beautiful, realistic-looking pony. You may think it’s a cross between your typical rolling ride-on and electrically-powered vehicle, but this pony cycle ride-on is quite a unique experience. Powered by human motion simulation, the ride on horse operates a little differently than others and provides as close to the real experience as possible.
What is the PonyCycle® Ride-on and How Does it Work?
The PonyCycle® Ride-on is a plush mechanical riding horse, unlike the traditional rocking horse that stays in one place. Kids sit on the saddle, hold the handles and tread on the pedals. As they move in a bounce-like motion and the seat raises, the horse’s legs fold. When the rider comes down and releases the pedals the horse’s legs spread and advances the pony forward. When done continuously it creates a gallop motion, as if your child is riding a real horse!
Why Your Kid Will Love the PonyCycle® Ride On Horse Toy
If you’re wondering whether the PonyCycle® toy is worth the investment here are a few factors to consider.
Unique Gift Idea
The pony cycle ride-on is really like no other ride-on toy. Unlike, the stationary horse rocker that only moves back in forth, this ride on horse glides forward with your child’s movements, however they like, without batteries or charging needed.
Realistic Features The quality pony features hair and fur that is made to look like a real horse. The newer models include redesigned ears, eyes, and face shape — the head mold is 3D carved so it looks more vivid. Plus, with the mechanical galloping movements and sounds, kids can feel like they are really learning to ride a pony!
Safe Ride-On Options
With the advancements (listed below) Pony Cycle aims to keep the ride-on safe for little ones. Not only are there separate ponies for younger (3-5 years old) and older children (4-9 years old), the newer models include safety brakes. Now the pony can stop when your child wants.
Safety one-way wheels make it less accident-prone and smoother to ride. Plus, the pedals are non-slip so your little one can ride with ease.
PonyCycle® Model U 2021 Improvements
The newest PonyCycle®, Model U 2021, features many updates and functions in sound, wheels, and brakes from the original.
If you’ve read reviews for the original Pony Cycle, it’s important to note a few improvements made.
For starters, the pony ride-on now includes brakes to keep your child safer. Simply squeeze the handlebars to bring the horse to a stop. This addition is one of the breakthroughs among mechanical riding horses to keep your little ones safer on the go.
Another improvement is the upgraded wheels for a smoother and silent ride. The larger contact area provides a more stable use. And one of the biggest changes from the previous model N to the new model U, is the integrated wheels to end the noise of stop rings.
Also, with a touch of a button kids can make the ride-on horse come to life with neighing and galloping sounds.
Although there are a variety of pony toys out there, the PonyCycle® is the original world-powered mechanical ride on horse that brings tons of fun, entertainment, and laugher from little to older kids. Whether you have a pony-lover or active child who simply enjoys ride-on toys, kids will remember this one as one of the best holiday gifts yet!

If you are looking for the best birthday gift for kids ages 3-9, check out this perfect gift idea of a PonyCycle®.
When you are a grandparent one thing that matters so much to you is your grand kids’ birthdays and the holidays with them. You want to get them gifts that mean something to them at the point they are in their life. I was lucky enough to find a perfect gift for my granddaughter Delilah!
Because she always has wanted a pony of her own, we knew that would be the gift that would make a great impact on her, however living in the suburbs that just was not a feasible option. She loves to move, dance and to keep moving no matter what, so imagine how excited we were when we found a Pony Cycle ride on horse for her! Having the best of both worlds of keeping her moving and not having to feed (or clean up after) a real pony.
A Wow Gift
PonyCycle® ride on pony is the next best thing to a real pony. It rides like a real pony. It doesn’t require any batteries or electrical power. They are actually kid powered! The motion of the child’s legs and feet pushing on the pedals creates the momentum to move the pony forward.
Scroll down to check the video of how it works 👇
When her party came along, we were so excited to give her the PonyCycle® and honestly, she was over the moon excited about it.
There were reigns, and pedal extenders, but most of all, what Delilah cared about was that Nana and Papa got her a pony!
Features of Model U 2021:
BRAKES – The PonyCycle® is now designed with a hand brake. The hand brake brings the pony to a secure stop. This hand brake is a tremendous breakthrough among the mechanical ride on horses.
REALISTIC SOUNDS – The PonyCycle® horse now has realistic electronic neighing and galloping sounds. So when kids press the button on the pony, their horse sounds like a real pony.
UPDATED WHEELS – The wheels on the new PonyCycle® are upgraded for a smoother and silent ride. This makes the pony more stable to ride.
NON-SLIP PEDALS – The pedals on the PonyCycle are now non-slip. Making it easier for kids to keep their feet on the pedals.
Optional Pedal Pads – You can purchase pedal pads to help kids reach the pedals easily. It increases the foot reach by about 3cm in height.
Optional Reins – You can purchase reins to help kids feel more like riding a real pony.
Every child at the party could not wait for their turn to ride her special pony. The Pony Cycle was an amazing gift for her, and we were so impressed with how life like it looked, how soft the fur was and of course by how easy it is to ride while being safe for her.
The ride on horse is being used by all of my grandkids now, and everyone loves to ride it around the yard, around the house and of course down the street! So many families have come out and asked about it, and all of them want to know where we got it.
If you have a child on your holiday wish list or a child who has a birthday coming up, I cannot recommend this Pony Cycle enough. It is cute, it is fun and most of all it is so well loved by the kids!
Don’t miss your chance to get your favorite child a perfect gift!

My little girl’s birthday is soon and this PonyCycle® pink unicorn makes THE BEST gift! It is so fun and extremely cute! Perfect for the little princess.
My little girl’s birthday is soon and this PonyCycle® pink unicorn makes THE BEST gift! The ride-on horse by PonyCycle® runs on kid power and needs no batteries. Kids just use their legs to make the pony go. This PonyCycle® ride-on horse has wheels that move when kids place their feet on the pedals. It is so fun and extremely cute! Perfect for the little princess. She was super excited to dress up in her princess dress and ride away on her unicorn. My son even loves riding on it, it can surprisingly go pretty fast with his weight!
The New functions since Model U 2021 are:
BRAKE– Designed with a hand brake, brings the pony to a secure stop.
The brake is a breakthrough among the mechanical ride on horses. The brake is similar to that on a bike, you simply squeeze it towards the handlebar
REALISTIC SOUND – Electronic neighing and galloping sounds when button pressed.
This is to make the horse/unicorn more vivid.
To add to the fun of the PonyCycle® there is also a sound button that plays the fairy galloping unicorn sound. The button for the soundbox is located behind the unicorn’s ear so can easily be reached while riding.
UPDATED WHEELS – Without stop ring, it is upgraded for a smoother & silent ride. Larger contact area makes more stable use.
This is one of the biggest differences from model N. Model U 2021 has integrated wheels to avoid the noise of the stop rings.
This Pony Cycle was made very well. Assembly was pretty easy, I assembled within minutes by myself. The only thing you need to do is attach the head with the included Allen wrench and then zip the material together. The pedal pads will assist kids to reach the pedals easily when the pony is still a bit bigger for them. This was a great addition for my daughter since she will be three; I’ve got a medium unicorn for her. You can purchase pedal pads to help kids reach the pedals easily. It increases the foot reach by about 3cm in height. The rein will add more fun, a more lifelike feel!
Since having this a few weeks now (in our living room since the kids play with it daily) we have received so many compliments on how cool of a toy it is. They also say how cute and well-made it is! We seriously love it; which is why it is such an amazing birthday gift! Really has the WOW factor for kids! I know both of mine love it, plus all of their friends that come over to play!

One of her birthday wishes this year is for a unicorn. Thanks to PonyCycle®, her dream has come true!
Lucy’s birthday is coming up and she’s about to turn 7. She’s a girly girl who loves sparkles, princesses, unicorns, fairy tales, animals, and all things pretty. One of her birthday wishes this year is for a unicorn. Thanks to PonyCycle®, her dream has come true!
The Anticipation!
When Lucy saw what arrived on our doorstep, she was THRILLED! I didn’t have time to open it that first day so for the next 24 hours, I was asked over a dozen times when we would have time. Throughout the day, I’d find her in the entryway looking over the box with excitement.
Why A PonyCycle® Unicorn Or Horse Makes A Great WOW Gift!
A PonyCycle® Ride On makes a great wow gift immediately upon first glance! The size of the box is impressive and the pictures on the front lets kids know they’re in for a treat! Because let’s be honest….what child DOESN’T want their very own ride on animal!? With all the PonyCycle® options, you can help make any child’s dreams come true. Current options include two different models; the premium model K and the classic model U (which has bonus accessories that can be purchased including rein, pedal pads, and more). Their new Model U version even features brakes, sound, updated wheels! Variations available are:
Pink Unicorn
White Unicorn
Zebra
Chocolate Dark Brown Horse
Black Horse
Light Brown Horse
Each PonyCycle® ride-on playmate comes in two size options: ages 3-5 or ages 4-9.
PonyCycle® Unicorn Model K Review
Assembly:
As I mentioned above, when Lucy saw her birthday gift arrive a few weeks early, she was super excited. So the next day, we got to unboxing her PonyCycle® Unicorn Model K. Assembly was surprisingly easy. The only thing you need to do is attach the head with the included allen wrench and then zip the material together.
Within 10 minutes, we had her PonyCycle® Unicorn completely unboxed, assembled, and ready to ride!
Features:
Everyone who has seen Lucy’s PonyCycle® Unicorn has commented on the gorgeous appearance! It really does turn heads.
Beautifully made of the finest cuddly soft plush materials
Various accessories for added fun include: Crown, Satin Bow, Grooming Brush, Award Ribbon, and Plush Seat Cover
The handles allow for steering of the horse
Metallic pedal with a comfortable, rubber grip foot-touch feeling for easy control.
Solid wooden handles for holding on to
Beautiful sparkling eyes that resemble those of a real animal
Kids love how the wheels light-up while riding and how the shimmering hooves sparkle.
Double gear design for ultimate stability
Comfortable, raised seat
Does The PonyCycle® Require Batteries?
Nope! One of the best features (in my opinion) about PonyCycle® ride-ons is the fact that they are actually kid powered! The motion of the child’s legs and feet pushing on the peddles is what creates the momentum to move the pony forward. So no batteries, no charging, no fuss!
Overall Appearance:
As you can see, the overall appearance is stunning. My husband is usually skeptical about toys like this but he was super impressed as soon as he first saw it. When assembling, he kept saying how well made and sturdy the PonyCycle® is and how he could see why they are so popular.
What Is The Size Difference Between The PonyCycle® 3-5 and PonyCycle® 4-9?
When considering what size PonyCycle® Ride-On to get, definitely take into account the age, weight, AND size of your child. The following charts give you the dimensions and limitations of the Unicorns to help.
Our Final Thoughts – What Lucy Thinks
When I ask her what she thinks about her PonyCycle® Unicorn, I receive an enthusiastic “It’s great mom!”. Throughout the day, you’ll find Lucy riding, playing, petting, or grooming her unicorn as she really loves it!
If you're looking for a birthday gift or already shopping for the upcoming holiday season, a PonyCycle® Ride-On is a great choice! It'll be the one gift that will REALLY wow and continue to be played with for months and years to come.

PonyCycle® has redefined industry standards by creating a unique kid's riding horse toy that requires no batteries, charge, or power.

"Model U 2021" first-ever no-battery Kid's ride on horse toy with brakes
PonyCycle® has redefined industry standards by creating a unique kid's riding horse toy that requires no batteries, charge, or power, this year released the highly anticipated Model U 2021 unicorn and horse toy that comes with functional, accessible brakes.
Made to be as simple as possible, allowing kids to get on the pony, bounce, and go, now parents can sit back while their kids enjoy endless entertainment, knowing that the new-and-improved stabilized wheels, braking feature, and optimized riding technology of the Model U 2021 ride on unicorn and horse toy will make family-fun that much safer.
When a kid finds their absolute favorite toy, they want to use it and play with it endlessly. The problem is that with a toy as big and engaging as a ride-on pony, kids end up blowing through packs of batteries, and expensive electric charges when plugged into the wall. That's what inspired our team to create a horse toy for toddlers that requires nothing but bodily movement. After much research and careful oversight, we have created a Model U 2021 version of our beloved toy with agile alterations and accessible brakes.
In order to make the pony ride as comfortable as possible, the PonyCycle® Model U 2021 uses the Model K pedal design as reference. The Model K- PonyCycle® premium version is made of high-end, stainless steel and rubber, created at an agile angle that makes it comfortable for kids to rest their feet on the pedals. PonyCycle® moves in tandem with kids in a bouncing motion, much like the movement of riding a horse.
"Pedal Pad" has also been launched as an extension feature that allows kids to reach despite their height. For the parents that wants products that will last throughout their kids' childhoods, the Paddle Pad makes it easy for families to invest in products that are durable and cost-effective over-time.
Not only does PonyCycle® get kids moving, but it also recreates the experience of riding an actual horse, without all of the danger. Unlike our competitors, we have also introduced a hand-activated brake with the toy, so kids can stop their ponies at a moment's notice, for ultimate safety.
Based on customer feedback, we have furthermore introduced an improved, stabilized wheel that makes the ride overall smoother with increased contact with the ground.
Lastly, by tapping the pony's ear lightly, the horse will let out a real call, making a more realistic riding experience.
As both a boy and girl's toy, PonyCycle® toy is available in black, dark brown, tan, and Ponycycle® unicorn white-and-pink.
Kids are free to get on their ride-on horse toy and create any kind of magical and imaginative experience. Play is an incredibly important part of child development, related to motor skills, cognitive recall, and socialization. We want to make playing as fun as possible, which is why we are encouraging families everywhere to check out our PonyCycle® horse toy today.

Woww, it takes us less than 3 minutes to assemble it. No wonder many people on amazon and social media comment that it assembled easily.
]]>
When we mums bought toys for our kids, we are even more excited than the little cuties and cannot wait to see their cute reaction.
However, we often have the headaches that most big toys like kids’ bikes, rocking horses, electrical ride-on scooters, etc. are not so easy to assemble. We are so confused with the complicated steps and have no clue how to put so many different parts together. We have to keep the toy box hidden and wait until handy husbands to do it.
When opening the color box, we find only two pieces here....pony body and pony head are well protected in a plastic bag. So the head needs to be fixed onto the body.
We also find a toy instruction manual and a little tool inside the bag.
Read it thoroughly especially all the important notes.
Click here to assemble the pony. Instructions were clear and we didn't have any problems with assembly.
There is some minor assembly required.
Following the instruction, first, we just need to find the zipper at the end of the head mane.
Then unzip it. You will see a head tube with two bolts.
Now you are even 100% sure the head tube will match perfectly with the neck rod, which makes you eagerly to put them together. Bingo!
To finish this step, we will have to use the little tool to unscrew the two bolts until the rod can go inside the tube completely.
After this, don’t forget to screw the bolts back and keep the two parts together.
Pay attention to keep the wheels’ direction exactly forward, not left nor right. It aims to avoid the pony won’t go sideways when the horse riders just want to gallop forward.
We also need to zip the collar again and zip the mane.
Woww, it takes us less than 3 minutes to assemble it.
No wonder many people on amazon and social media comment that it assembled easily.
I really appreciate these comments encourage me to try it by myself. I feel so proud.
After I made it, I totally understand why the assembly is so simple. Compared with toys with batteries, PonyCycle® toy is designed to work with mechanical principle. It leaves kids strength to make it gallop, not the complicated electronic equipment.

What is the PonyCycle®?
PonyCycle® is a ride-on pony toy that is very popular with parents and children. The biggest feature is that it is driven by kids’ motivation, allowing them to exercise while playing. Making sports a fun thing. It rides as if riding a real horse. When riding on it you can feel the ups and downs like on the back of a real pony.
In addition to the excited riding experience, the range of body movements when riding is very similar to riding a real horse. The sports effect that can be achieved by riding a real horse can also be achieved by riding a PonyCycle®.
As fully mechanical ride-on horse toy, PonyCycle® not require battery maintenance and charging, which is environmentally friendly and has a long usage life.
How do you ride a PonyCycle®?
First, sit on the saddle. If the child is not tall enough, you can step on the pedals. You don't have to worry about the pony falling over. Because it has a perfect architecture design to ensure stability.
Then, gently lift the feet, the saddle naturally sinks, the front legs of the pony has begun to move forward, and then step on the pedals again, and at the same time the little butt is lifted upwards, the pony begins to take the next step. Repeat the above actions, children make the horse's legs and head move forward and backward, moving the PonyCycle® forward in a galloping motion. As its fur-topped hooves hid wheels similar to those you’d find on roller blades. The faster the child's movement frequency, the faster the running. When the child stopped, the pony also stopped.
You can also steer the handle to adjust its direction. All these actions are so simple that children of the right age can easily control.
PonyCycle® ride-on horse has raised seat, it's the core of real horse riding experience. Through scientific ergonomic design and the built-in transmission mechanism of the ride-on pony, coordinated movement of the whole body is realized.

When you were a kid did you wish for a pony? I know there was many Christmas's that I asked Santa for a pony but I was always disappointed when I never received my pony.
I wish they made an adult version of this cute pony.
I received a PonyCycle® in exchange for this post.
When you were a kid did you wish for a pony? I know there was many Christmas's that I asked Santa for a pony but I was always disappointed when I never received my pony.
Now you can be that awesome parent and give your kid the nextbest thing to a pony. The best part is this ride on pony needs no food and never makes a mess.
Kids will jump for joy when they discover the PonyCycle® under the Christmas tree this year.
Grandma got Abby a pony!
This grandma decided to get a PonyCycle® for her first grandchild, even though she does not move yet, as this simulation animal toy is so adorable. The cute pony will look so darn cute in her bedroom. The pony arrived when my daughter and baby were visiting last week. My daughter was so excited about the PonyCycle, that she had to post about it on the family photo page. The baby was happy to look at the cute pony and she thought it was so soft.
The best toddler Christmas gift!
My granddaughter will be seeing this pretty pony under the Christmas tree. Isn't great that she won't remember this photo that grandma took? It is so fun to shop for baby's first Christmas. You can take them with you to the store and not have to hide the presents in the cart.
My boys were super jealous!
My older boys were super jealous that they did not get a pony. They are 10 and 11 so I know they would rather havedart blastersfor a Holiday present instead of a ride-on-toy. My boys just had to try the soft plush ride-on horse and that was ok as this pony is very durable. The small horse that we received can support up to 55 pounds and the larger PonyCycle® can support kids up to 88 pounds. Since my one son is short for his age and weighs only 50 pounds, I enlisted his help to show you how fun this toy is.
No batteries needed!
The PonyCycle® runs on kid power and needs no batteries. Kids just use their legs to make the pony go. This ride-on has wheels that move when kids place their feet on the peddles. It gives children great exercise as well as sparking their imagination. Kids will have some great adventures as they ride the PonyCycle®. This toy that will be on every kid's list also exercises their balance and coordination skills.
Don't worry if there is snow on the ground on Christmas
Do you remember as a child, receiving a bike for a Christmas present and not being able to ride it as there was snow on the ground? The PonyCycle® can be used both indoors and outside. Think of all that great exercise the kids will get in the cold winter. This is truly a toy that will get plenty of use. I like that it is not heavy and I can pack it up it the car to bring to the park.
PonyCycle® has been flying under the radar since 1995 when the director invented a mechanical horse for his grandson, and they have been rapidly growing their US presence since 2008. All products are environmentally friendly and made with high-grade fabric and sewing finish, making the toys soft and comfortable to ride on or play with. They can be found in 89 countries. PonyCycle® toy is an adorable, child-sized ride on toy pony which relies on child power to move. The ride on toy comes in two sizes and is made for kids ages 3-9. Your little one will feel like riding a real pony, as a natural riding motion is required to get Pony moving. So let this be the year that your child gets the pony he/she wished for. Watch my video below to see it in action and then head over to PonyCycle® to see their awesome video.

We use ourPonyCycle®horse toys around the house which you’ve seen on stories, as well as down the sidewalk and into the cul-de-sac. I laugh at how ridiculous they look which is probably why our neighbors look at us weird, but these truly bring us some much joy and fun.

We took our Pony toy out for a gallop!
Elston loves horses and animals so much, we are continuing to build this up and she’s reveling in it! I told her Auburn is a great choice for vet school lol.
If you are a grandparent, or relative, looking for a holiday gift, this should definitely be considered an option! We have both the larger sizes, for reference.

Let's check the customers reviews about PonyCycle® (Toy reviews) :
Best Amazon purchase
"The quality is very good, almost no assembly! My son has been 22 months, he loves his horse." Amazon customer reviews
This is the best and strongest pony in the world
"But, to be honest, I like that my toddler son can ride in and out with his muscles to make this sturdy little guy walk. I'm full of praise for that."
Buy it, you need this! ! !
"This is the best investment for my daughter's birthday, great gifts. She hasn't stopped riding the pony. After 4 months of using it, she still loves it, and it looks very beautiful!! Review by the summoner.
Most suitable for horse girls! ! !
I bought a medium-sized dress for my daughter’s 3rd birthday. She loves it!
She is short, but she can still ride! We still have room for growth. Prepare for the real horseback riding. Reviewed by Jillian.
Wonderful!
"This was very easy to put together. It felt very sturdy. I got the ride on unicorn for my Granddaughter and she absolutely loved it. I would definitely recommend!
My Granddaughter is 3 and I ordered the larger size unicorn, she fits just fine. "Reviewed by Kindle Customer .
Christmas gift for 4-year-old daughter
"I brought this pony to my 4-year-old daughter for Christmas. She loves it and hasn't stopped playing since she got the gift.
This horse is not only cute, but also sturdy and durable. It can roll very smoothly on hardwoods, tiles and short carpets. It is easy to maneuver, and it is also easy to pick up and maneuver away in case she rolls herself to places she cannot support ( Horses do not roll in reverse, so if you enter a curve, you must dismount and move them).
We live in a cold climate and it is not always convenient to go out, especially in winter, so I also like the fact that she exercises and learns to coordinate while riding a horse.
This is the best thing I bought. "An Amazon customer commented.
Probably the best gift ever
“We bought it on our daughter’s 4th birthday, just like a new family member! Kids like to take turns, no matter how big or small, it’s very fun. It’s fun to ride around the house without damaging the floor.
We have new hardwoods. Although we were worried at first, these wheels are skateboard wheels and there are no traces at all. Well-made, super cute, very sturdy and easy for all ages. "Helen Kowalchik commented
Best gift ever!
Words cannot describe the joy that this has brought to my granddaughter!!! She treats her unicorn as a treasured ‘pet’. Grooms, ‘feeds’ and rides her every day.
She tells perfect strangers all about ‘Princess Sparkle’ and their adventures. Highly recommend! Reviewed by tammyammy.
BEST TOY EVER!
"Let go of the best items I have ever bought on Amazon. My granddaughter is crazy, and this is perfectly able to pay the bill. No food, no cleaning and excellent exercise. The pony can be together in less than 5 minutes out of the box, and Very strong
Her 8-year-old sister is riding it! Lots of good sports. She took it to the house and brushed its mane and tail like a mane. If she can, she will sleep!
We bought two ride on cars so that 3 and 5 year olds can drive. "Yaya reviewed this.
This item is smaller than it looks-has a metal frame, but the body is filled with Styrofoam-and children can pick up the horse and carry it when it gets stuck somewhere.
Horse fans will love this
"Except for the horse that prevents the wheels from rolling backwards, the horse does not brake. It does roll like a normal scooter-that is, it travels forward, but rolls slowly to a stop. The maximum speed is about 2 speeds. . 3 mph
It can traverse carpets and wooden transitions without problems, but if you are outside, any sidewalk tiles that are a quarter of an inch higher may make the horse lean forward.
However, any kid who likes horses will love this toy. The little guy talked to the horse, brushed his mane and tail, and rode around the house. The horse head swings up and down as the legs move, so it feels like riding an animal instead of a scooter. "Commented by Pei-Te Yu

Some best non-electronic creative gifts for kids
Yes, I know you want to prepare some really unique, creative gifts for kids. That’s would be great if it is the non-electronic kids gift. Let’s face it, if you look at your kid’s Christmas wish list, I bet it is filled with things like phones, tablets, video games, and other items that would keep their noses firmly planted in their electronic world!
Here I sort out some really great gifts and benefit kids toys:
Why these are some of the best non-electronic gifts ideas for children.
Kite
Flying kites is a typical childhood pastime in America, yet when we grow older, we tend to forget how much fun it can be. Being able to navigate a kite as the wind tugs it every which way in the sky can be an enjoyable experience for the whole family.
PonyCycle® ride on unicorn and horse-the combination of Scooter, plush, rocking horse all in one, make it the most unique and popular non-electric toy. The Ponycycle® ride on toy rides like a real pony and is kid powered. Kids love it, they enjoy the galloping motion.
There’s exercise involved in it. They have to move their legs to make PonyCycle® go, and the faster they move their legs, the faster the unicorn/pony goes.” The small hands can gear the wooden bar to the right direction.
When riding a PonyCycle® pony, you need to alternate tight and loose muscles. When the body quickly straightens due to the pressure of stepping on the foot, the muscles stretch. The second stage is to bend the body to relax the back and abdominal muscles. By alternating and repetitively, muscles can be strengthened and joints can be moved.
PonyCycle® toys are fun and creative, which is a perfect suit for a Christmas gift!
Coloring books / Arts and Crafts
Arts and crafts usually require kids to use both hands in a certain manner, which can help them develop fine motor skills and bilateral coordination. For example, drawing dots and lines, cutting with scissors, and even simply tearing a piece of paper are all quite demanding tasks in terms of dexterity – and kids enjoy doing them.
Lego Blocks
Using Lego bricks is a great opportunity to build advanced motor skills! Using Lego minifigures and building blocks with other companions can enable children to acquire the same skills they have learned in dramatic games or using dollhouses.
Sense of accomplishment
When my children complete their amazing works of art, they will show me their creations. They made incredible pride, good for the hands and the heart!
Persevere
Building a house with Lego bricks can sometimes be heartbreaking. A wrong action caused a beautiful tower to collapse.
At first, this was frustrating. I learned that children who often use Lego bricks will not fail because of this. Instead, they did it again.
I even accidentally destroyed the masterpiece. I am always surprised when I hear "it’s okay, I can build it again!"
Chess Game or some board games
When playing chess, the most active part of the human body is the brain. Since the brain works like a muscle, it needs regular exercise to stay healthy and avoid injury.
In fact, this is the process by which the tree branches transmit signals from other nerve cells to the neurons to which they are attached. Therefore, learning chess at a young age will make dendrites grow without stopping. Since learning chess is a continuous activity, many dendrites grow.
Smart people play chess.
Chess is definitely a game that can improve children's IQ, which is not surprising. A study showed that 4000 boys and girls in Venezuela all showed IQ scores after 4 months of chess training.
It improves children’s problem-solving skills
In our fast-developing world, every day, we face many problems and obstacles at every step of our lives. Some problems are being solved, and some are not solved because of lack of problem solving ability.
Play dough
It develops fine motor skills
Squeezing, rolling, and pulling equal movements can help your child exercise the muscles in his hands to facilitate future fine motor movements, such as holding a pen or using scissors. When your child molds plasticine into different shapes, they are actually using their little hands to build strength.
It's calming for children
Just like you drew out a smooth pressure ball from time to time, squeezing the plasticine is very helpful to calm your child. Playing with clay can help relieve tension, release excess energy, improve concentration and express emotions. If your child feels stressed, please sit down in a plasticine container and watch their worries disappear.
It encourages creativity
No matter how many colors you have, your child can make countless ideas from dough. Creating objects from scratch will encourage your child to expand their imagination and think in new ways.
Let's see what research says about Harmful Effects on electric products:
Whether you keep the TV on all the time or the whole family members sits around staring at their smartphones, too much screen time could be harmful. Here's what some of the research says:
Behavior problems: Elementary school-age children who watch TV or use a computer more than 2 hours per day are more likely to have emotional, social, and attention problems.
Early data from a landmark National Institutes of Health (NIH) study that began in 2018 indicates that children who spent more than two hours a day on screen-time activities scored lower on language and thinking tests
Educational problems: Elementary school-age children who have televisions in their bedrooms do worse on academic testing.
Screens could inhibit certain aspects of a child’s development by narrowing their focus of interest and limiting their other means of exploration and learning
Obesity: Too much time engaging in sedentary activity, such as watching TV and playing video games, can be a risk factor for becoming overweight.1
Sleep problems: Although many parents use TV to wind down before bed, screen time before bed can backfire. The light emitted from screens interferes with the sleep cycle in the brain and can lead to insomnia.2
Setting limits on computers and game time is important, but just setting limits will only make you bored. To truly strike a balance between the electronic and non-electronic worlds of your children, you need to provide them with interesting choices.
Have you decided which to choose this Christmas?
I highly recommend the PonyCycle® ride on horse toys, it will surprise your little ones in this special holiday season. It's the best gift for kids.

Although it is not like the traditional in-door game :play doh, board game, play baby shark, it is still very interesting as well as interactive. In the process kids are finding the perfect and imaginative play.
Your child can explore, integrate the PonyCycle® into games and playtime, and generally just get more comfortable with the PonyCycle® without wind, snow and cold. Hardwood, tile, vinyl and low pile carpet surfaces all work- obviously, be careful that the PonyCycle® is not near any staircases or other dangers.
Can I play my PonyCycle® outdoors?
Spending more time inside, with wild kiddos, is the reality for most of us these days. Usually when the days are longer and warmer, we start excitedly pulling pogo sticks, baseball bats, bikes, PonyCylce and other ride-on or outdoor toys out of the shed to prepare for picnics and barbecues.
This year things are definitely different. Luckily, PonyCycle® are fun to ride both outdoors and indoors. So, go ahead and get it out anyway.
But also be careful about the following place: lawn and sloping fields. PonyCycle® can work on the lawn, but the riding experience is not good.
PonyCycle® also can work on the sloping fields, but for kid’s safety consideration, please don’t play on sloping fields.
You can take PonyCycle® outdoors but it's not meant to be left outside, so just be sure to park it in your 'corral' when you're done with your ride, 'pardner!
How to clean the outdoor toy?
Also you can bring it back indoors after playing outside, while you need to wipe its wheels before bringing it indoor. You can clean the wheels with the wet towel. Be sure there’s no fine and be taken to your room and scratch the floor.
Ride on toys in the door using tips: Nonwax furniture polish helps restore the shine to dulled plastic as well as minimize the appearance of scratches. It is a good idea to spray some disinfectant on.
