“What I learned in Boating School is…” Spongebob may need a little help behind the wheel, given his track record! This cute RC car features a bright-eyed Spongebob behind the wheel. It has working headlights and can drive forward and backward as well as turning. The remote control and vehicle require 6 AA batteries in total. You can save battery life by flipping the switch on the bottom of the car and remote when they’re not in use.

RC cars help children to establish autonomy, gain confidence, and work on their hand-eye coordination. Steering that little car might look like a cinch but it’s harder than it appears! Especially with household obstacles in the way. Driving at faster speeds challenges reflexes, too!

Ease of Use

This is a pretty straightforward design for an RC car. The remote doesn’t have any extra buttons: kids use the one on the left to go forward and backward, and the one on the right to turn the car left or right. Simply turn both pieces on via the switch on the bottom, and get to it. Start those engines!

This TY Patrick beanie is eight inches tall. He's super soft and sure to provide tons of snuggles.

Physical Development

It is important for kids to have something soft to hold to feel safe and to use their imagination to create a friendship. And, children playing with plush toys and dolls learn nurturing skills such as feeding, bathing, changing a diaper, walking a plush pet to get exercise, and many other skills. This helps build fine motor development as they use the utensils and tools needed to get the job done.

Plush toys are very entertaining for kids as they play. They can retell the stories they have learned in animations and books. This, again, is a great imaginative play that helps them use their creativity to solve pretend problems and encourage divergent thinking. The more imaginative play kids engage in, the better.

Ease of Use

Your child has a variety of ways they can play with their plush Patrick. They can take them by the hand, walk around with them, and talk a blue streak with them.
