My toddler is 3 in Oct and I want to get him some cars and a garage etc for his birthday but I'm not sure whether to go for Toot Toot or something more grown up like hot wheels.

Is he too old for Toot Toot? X

Toot toots are aimed at 1-5 year olds so no not too old. they’re durable too.
however, they are annoying as hell… i’m trying to slowly say goodbye to the toot toots haha- wanna buy some? lol

for a 3 year old hot wheels are ok and take up less space

DS was over toot toot’s by age 2

Hot wheels are perfect

I'd go Hot Wheels too... Toot Toot are great but annoying and Hot Wheels have lasted a lot longer in our house

We took our toot-toots to the charity shop a few weeks ago. My youngest is nearly 4, but hadn't played with them for a while. At most you'll get about 6 months play, so wouldn't bother.

Save yourself from the hell that is Toot Toot and get Hot Wheels instead! We got rid of our last Toot Toot stuff about 3 years ago but the music still haunts my nightmares 😂

Toot toot is hell. Avoid avoid avoid.
