There are several small unicorn toys that kids have been introduced to that have a long mane that can be brushed and styled and a fun personality to interact with—and Kid Trax's Josie ride-on toy offers all this and more on a much larger scale than usual. The new Rideamals toy takes the form of a battery-powered plaything that makes over 100 unique sounds and comes alive with a moving head, eyes, ears, and wheels. Josie can reach speeds of up to four mph at a "gallop" and lower speeds when trotting or going in reverse.
While the Josie Play & Ride Unicorn is ideal for kids, the Rideamals Play & Ride Unicorn introduces the same style of character in a smaller design that's lower to the ground and fit for toddlers.
