FAQ
Find quick answers about PonyCycle® ride-on unicorn toys, sizing, gifting, warranty, and shipping in Canada.
How does a PonyCycle® ride-on unicorn move?
A PonyCycle® ride-on unicorn moves forward through the rider's own up-and-down motion, with no motor or batteries required.
- Sit in the saddle: Place both feet on the stirrups.
- Push down to move: Press the stirrups and move up and down to power the unicorn forward.
- Ride with control: Steer with the handlebars and stop with the brake or by putting a foot down. A one-way wheel prevents backward rolling.
Is a PonyCycle® unicorn a good birthday or holiday gift?
Yes. A ride-on unicorn combines imaginative play with an experience the child can actively power, making it a memorable screen-free gift for birthdays, Christmas, and other special occasions. Choose Classic Model U for a soft, realistic coat and pony sounds that work well for everyday play. Choose Advanced Model Y for a more premium presentation with richer fabric, a reversible sequin horn, touch-activated sounds, and starry wheels.
Which size ride-on unicorn is right for my child?
Choose Size 3 for ages 3–4, Size 4 for ages 4–7, and Size 5 for ages 7 and up. Use our size guide to compare height and inseam when a child is near the edge of an age range.
Is a PonyCycle® ride-on unicorn worth it?
Yes. A PonyCycle® unicorn is designed to deliver more than a one-day gift moment. Because the child powers every ride, it encourages active, screen-free play, supports balance and coordination, and gives imaginative play a physical, rideable form. PonyCycle® invented the child-powered ride-on in 1993, and every unicorn is made with non-toxic materials, meets ASTM F963 and EN 71 safety standards, and is built on a reinforced frame for lasting use.
Does PonyCycle® come with a warranty and free shipping in Canada?
Yes. Every ride-on unicorn is backed by a 180-day limited warranty and a 30-day money-back guarantee, and ships free from local Canadian stock to most addresses across Canada (remote areas excluded).
