NCAA Ride-on

Classic play has had a big year and one category that’s been taking off with families spending more time at home is an old favorite: ride-on toys.

Dynacraft has been ahead of the trend with some innovative products over the past few years and one of the most unexpected new additions for the holiday season follows a lineage that began at the Toy Insider‘s Sweet Suite event a few years back when the company first showed off its Unicorn Plush Ride-on. That magical creature led the way for Stable Buddies and additional plush ride-ons featuring characters from Scooby-Doo, Baby Shark, Jurassic ParkPAW Patrol, and most recently, Snoopy and Clifford The Big Red Dog.

Now some additional characters from the realm of college sports are here to get in on the action!

The 6-volt NCAA College Mascots ride-on assortment brings famous mascots from the University of Georgia, University of Alabama, Auburn University, University of Arkansas, Louisiana State University, and Clemson University from the sidelines to the sidewalk just in time for fall.

Like their entertainment counterparts, each cuddly mascot is safe and snuggly with no hard edges. Kids ages 3 and up can rock the neighborhood at a maximum speed of 2.5 mph activated by an easy-to-operate foot pedal. Kids can also cheer on their (or their parents’) favorite team with the include collegiate fight song plays from within each mascot.

Each ride-on comes with a special “team bus” where the mascot lives for charging in between playtime.

The NCAA College Mascots ride-on assortment is featured in the Toy Insider‘s 15th annual Holiday Gift Guide, and if you know a little one who may want one, be sure to shop early! These are available only at Walmart.
