Ooooh, do they ever!!
Yes, do it - best toy ever in this house (we have 3 Blush)

They work fine on carpet, probably better for a one year old as they go like greased lightening on hard flooring, particularly around terrifying corners. Love'em Grin

Get the smaller size for your DS then you can get a bigger one when he is a bit older

Yay! Was hoping that would be the answer as I really want to get one!! :)

Yep they do love em dd has the bee

Certainly do! We have the tiger. At 2.6 my DD now prefers the scooter but it made an ace 1st birthday present -- and we started out with the larger size. No problem for DD who is petite on the 9th centile.

Pacific's right. They're probably better on carpet. They whizz along on hard floors.

We have the small ladybug, the large tiger and the large bee - my older boys (11 and 10!) still like the little ladybug. She now has a concave back from all the enormous heavy children sitting on her Sad.
And DS3 and 4 (6 and 4) adore the speed they can develop on hard floors, but I remember being v grateful for out carpeted hall when they were little.

Damn, now I want a new one!

We have a small bee and the large ladybird. My elder boys still go on them.

They are fab on carpet.
