One of the best things you can buy your toddler in spring is a trike. Yes we know trikes cost money, but there are loads of nearly new sales you can go to, or you can simply visit good old ebay and grab yourself a bargain.

The newer trikes can be converted from a simple push-along trike, where your toddler is safely strapped in with a five point harness, to a self-propelled trike when they are a little older. Now you might think that a trike is only appropriate for children who are a few years old, but you can also get them for toddler less then a year old, and they are safe and easy to use. Your toddler will be able to see the world from a different perspective and have fun at the same time.

The only problem with getting a trike for your toddler, is that they will never want to go out in their pram again.
