How The Kidoozie Funtime Tractor Compares To The Competition
With a rating of 4.5 stars on Amazon, Toys R’ Us, and 5 stars on almost every other website, the Kidoozie Funtime Tractor is certainly an appealing children’s toy. But, how does it compare to the competing toys in the same category? In this article we will explore some of the most important aspects.
The first aspect that parents have emphasized when talking about this tractor is the longevity. There are many parents who talk about their children owning, playing with, and loving this toy for five years or more. Several families have mentioned passing this toy down through several different children and having it still work very well. There are very few complaints of any damage to the product, and those who have had those complaints have said the damage is minor and occurs after 3 or more years. This is an amazing amount of time for a play vehicle to last.
Parents have made sure to mention that the vehicle transports easily as well. With convenient hand holds built into the design itself, it is easy to move from room to room, and even pack up for weekends away from home. The pieces stay firmly where they are meant to, and there is little risk of losing them during transport as well.
The sounds and lights are captivating to children of many different ages. With each piece making a different sound, the tractor ranks high above the competition. This is because competing toys either have one sound component, or no sounds at all. For children who love having their choice of sounds, this can make all the difference.
Some parents have mentioned that their toddles will chew on the figures, which is normal behavior for small children. The most common comment is that the figures are well made enough to withstand this onslaught and come away without any damage. This is one of the things that makes it so easy to pass down to the next generation. Competing toys do not stand up in this way, and instead sustain damage from prolonged periods of chewing.
Unlike other toys that have to be pushed by hand, this playset moves at the push of a button. This makes it extremely easy to use by children with disabilities, children with lower levels of motor control, and very young children who would prefer to watch their toys rather than constantly needing to move them. On the other hand, it can be moved by hand, giving children working on their motor skills an option in the way that their toy works.
Finally, in terms of safety, this toy remains unsurpassed. Because there is little risk of breaking, it remains safe for toddlers. While children should always be supervised, the hard plastic construction and careful attention to size makes this a great toy for younger children.
Overall, the Kidoozie Funtime Tractor blows the competition of the water. From safety to length of use, it is hard to find another children’s vehicle that can compare.
Hi, we have this toy and my son loves it! However, in the midst of our move, it seems we misplaced 2 of the animals. Is there any way to get replacements of the animals? Please let me know.
Thank you!

Hello,
This is a long shot, but I’m wondering if there’s any way to get a replacement sheep. My son has this toy and loves it, and unfortunately he left the sheep at the park.
Thank you.

My son loves the tractor but the self propelled operation has stopped working. Every other function works but the wheels don’t even try to move. Is there a fix?
I need a set of the animals. How do I get?

My son LOVES this tractor. However, the feature that makes the tractor move on its own broke within a few months of use (regular use – no rough play with it). My son loves it so much that I bought a second one. Unfortunately, the same thing happened again after only a few months of regular use. This toy seems a bit expensive for it to break like this after only a few months of use. It’s a shame because it is so cute and he loves it so much. I just can’t see buying it again when it has already broken twice before and in such a short period of time.
Where did you buy it from? I noticed some of the tractors have a rubber strip on the front tires, while other versions of the same tractor dont have the rubber strip
