Product Overview

This wooden dashboard set puts kids three and older behind the wheel, with a play steering wheel loaded with lights, sound effects, and moving parts. Turning the key starts the action, and shifting into drive gets the scrolling GPS display rolling while the wheel steers to keep the car on the road. Hands-free buttons on the wheel bring up a pretend phone and a radio playing music clips across four stations, and extra dashboard controls give kids even more to explore. Interactive buttons and moving parts add cause-and-effect play to the mix.

Turn the key to start, shift into drive, and steer to keep the on-screen car on the road via the scrolling GPS display
Hands-free phone and radio buttons play music clips across four stations
Beep the horn, adjust the air vents, and flip on turn signal, hazard, and headlight indicators
Rev the engine, set a timer to count down to an empty gas tank, and remove the gas cap for "refueling"
Sturdy wooden dashboard supports hand-eye coordination and imaginative play for kids ages three and up
