ABC FERDY FIRE IN SOUTH AFRICA

ABC Ferdy Fire: always at the ready, always on the job! With their bright appearance and sirens, even the youngest children are fascinated by fire engines. Now ABC is bringing this fascination into the playroom with Ferdy Fire which also gives children an exciting opportunity to see how a fire engine works. Specially designed for little hands, the fire engine is suitable for children aged one and over. The truck is motorised and can move forwards and backwards. It can also freewheel. And of course the ladder turns realistically - just like the Scania that it's modelled on. As you would expect, a fire engine is never complete without light and sound - so they're part and parcel of Ferdy Fire's exciting features. It's not just the fun design, but also the rounded corners that make the Happy Fire Truck an excellent aid for helping to train motor skills and give a basic understanding of the motorised world. • toy vehicle with freewheel capability • motorised, moves forwards and backwards • rotating ladder • light and sound • moving parts • colourfast and saliva-resistant • rounded corners • no easily swallowed small parts • batteries included • length: 25 cm • recommended age Features and Benefits: Playing with small toy cars build a child’s fine motor skills. They develop hand-eye coordination and dexterity in both their hands as kids pick up, carry, throw, push and pull small toy cars around. Toy cars teach kids about trajectory as they launch their mini cars off a loop-de-loop. They learn about velocity, distance, gravity, weight and so much more. Children come across vehicles frequently in their daily lives, so they like to incorporate these in small world play, too. Imaginative play allows children to exercise their creativity and helps them make sense of the world around them. Children can become familiar with the different vehicles through play. Some toys also introduce children to roles in the community. This builds on their knowledge of the world. Toy vehicles can be played with independently, but children also love to race each other! This encourages children to share and negotiate (for example, deciding who gets the special red car), and lets them learn about friendly competition Early communication involves children making their own sound effects when playing. Toy vehicles can support this as children are likely to have seen them in action
