The Original Big Wheel (Gross Motor Toys)

April 22, 2025 by jennifer 1 Comment

Well before my kiddo was interested in a bike, he wanted to jump onto a Big Wheel. I remember riding up and down our long driveway as a kid for hours! Now I watch my boys ride them up and down our sidewalks.

Even as they get older, the Big Wheel still comes out. Sure, bikes are great… but Big Wheels are cool.
