DynaCar Kid-Powered Toy by See Toys
Everyone is trying to be more energy-conscious in this day and age. As the old batteries run out, we are in the process of changing batteries in our son’s toys to rechargeable ones. I was very interested when I recently read about See Toys, a company that makes “kid-powered” toys. All of their toys are environmentally friendly and use no batteries or electrical power whatsoever. Instead, they are powered by a hand crank. The DynaCar, pictured above, even has lights that flash and a motor that revs when the crank is turned. This sounds like something my son would love to play with, and I’d feel good about him playing with it as well. I’m secretly hoping someone buys him a Dynacar or another of See Toys models for his birthday next week so that I can see one in action for myself!
The DynaCar is $24.99 and recommended for ages 5 and up. In addition to being eco-friendly, this toy seems like it would save parents money in the long run (no batteries to keep replacing). I couldn’t find any websites selling this car, so if you’re interested, your best bet is to go to SeeToys.com and send them an inquiry about where you can buy the Dyna Car. If you find out, please let me know!
Has anyone tried one of these toys?
