Whilst other Ride On Toys may be content with going backwards and forwards or side to side, the unlimited directional movement offered by the Wheely Bug means that the rider can add ‘round and round’ to their fun filled journey.
Wheely Bugs can be ridden, pushed, pulled, kissed and cuddled! These colourful ride on bugs, great for both boys and girls, almost have a magical mind of their own. They are designed to offer hours of robust fun and help to promote self-confidence, spatial awareness and gross motor skills.
Wheely Bug bodies have a padded layer of sponge which is covered with a tough layer of polyurethane leatheroid and can be easily wiped clean. They are great to use on smooth level floors and ideal for indoors.
Available in a variety of different designs and 2 different sizes.
A Wheely Bug is a multi-directional robust ride on toy that will offer hours of fun, promote self-confidence, spatial awareness and gross motorskills.
How much can it carry, can I sit on it?
The maximum recommended rider weight is 25kg or 50lbs.
Can they be used outside?
Any smooth, flat surface is suitable. However keep them away from dirt or sand as this can get into the castors and slow them down. Also do not leave the toy outside in the rain or direct sunshine for long periods as this can damage the surfaces.
Can they be used on pavements?
They will run on pavements provided the surface is smooth and without impediments. The castors may become damaged in time and/or wear out more rapidly. Don’t worry, replacements can be purchased from us.
Will they run on carpet?
Obviously it is slower going on carpet, but your child will get a good work out!
How do I look after my Wheely Bug?
A wipe down of the covering with diluted Eucalyptus oil ( 10 parts water to one part Eucalyptus oil ) on a regular basis helps keep the PU covering pliable. Regularly clean casters from hair or other debris to ensure smooth running. Handle bolts should be checked for fastness regularly.
Will the plush covers fit an “original” Wheely Bug?
Unfortunately the plush covers only fit the plush Wheely Bug bodies. You can interchange different plush covers as much as you like.
Can the Wheely Bug be repaired?
The good news is-yes! Click Here.
What kind of warranty covers the Wheely Bug?
12 months from purchase on manufacturing faults only. A manufacturing fault usually becomes apparent very quickly and we have very few of these. Excessive wear and tear due to misuse is not covered (e.g. if the casters wear out because the Wheelybug is used on rough surfaces, if your pet damages the cover, if the Wheely Bug is left in the rain or too close to a radiator.....)
What are the do’s and dont’s for Wheely Bugs?
1. Children should only use the toy under adult supervision 2. For use only by children able to walk unassisted. Should not be used as an aid or support for walking 3. Ride on toys can tip over on surfaces that are not flat. The toy should be used only on smooth, level, dry surfaces 4. Do not allow children to use on or near hills, inclines, steps, bridges or near a swimming pool or other body of water
5. Shoes must be worn at all times 6. Only one rider at a time. Multiple riders can cause tipping over 7. Do not allow a child to stand on the seat. The Wheely Bug should be ridden with both feet on the ground 8. It is important to check that the handle and wheel bolts are tight before using the toy. A loose or detached handle or wheel can make the toy unstable 9. Maximum rider weight recommended is 25kg or 50lbs 10. Clean with soap and water, protect with diluted Eucalypt oil. Never use polishes, abrasive cleaners or steel wool. Strong solvents eg acetone, can damage the surface. Exposure to sunlight for long periods can result in colour fading. Don’t leave out in the open. Keep sharp points away from the covering
