So far I like it bought it as a baby shower gift for my sister won’t know how it works for awhile but was very cute and looked very well made
Loved that it was non toxic
This little toy elephant is beyond adorable! It's smaller than I expected from the picture, but perfect for little ones to push around. Due to the small parts, it is recommended for age 12 months and up. With supervision, I think you could introduce it sooner to a kiddo.
This toy is made from FSC Certified wood--which means it "comes from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social and economic benefits." The paints are non-toxic, so if your toddler puts them into his or her mouth, he/she won't wind up with lead or arsenic poisoning.
The body of the elephant car is non-stained, unpainted and unsealed wood. The wheels have cute four-pointed star and stripe designs on one side and are untreated wood on the other surfaces. There's a cute little figure made of a round and a leaf-shaped bead on a peg through the center. These spin around and make a nice clacking noise when your little one shakes the toy. With the key-hole shape in the crook of the elephant's trunk, conceivably you could tie a cord to make a little pull toy. The design is simple, with its three basic colors and elementary shapes, yet visually attractive for young and old.
If you are looking for an environmentally friendly toy that's sure to delight your little one and will last through more than one child, this is a good choice. It would make a good birthday or holiday gift. It would also be a safe toy for use in a nursery or daycare setting. If you have more than one child, be sure to get more than one of these toys. It's sure to be in high demand!
I'm a fan of wooden toys and the Petit Collage Wooden Push Along is a neat modern design with play value and functionality. I like the curved abstraction of the elephant form, giving it a modern art vibe. Not only is it a sensible toy void of sharp edges, but it looks feng shui and streamlined on a shelf making for a more organized looking space. It's a good size that's manageable for play and store, but even if it isn't played with I think it would make a nice decorative element in the home.
I appreciate that Petit Collage makes eco-friends, non-toxic, BPA-free toys. The Push Along Elephant would make a thoughtful gift with safety in mind. It's also the kind of toy that wouldn't get so easily thrown away. Unlike plastic toys, the Petit Collage wooden toys are beautifully made and have an intrinsic value that make them timeless and collectible.

This little elephant car is adorable!
The wood is all super-smooth, the parts are all very well-attached, and I don't see any hazards for little ones. The description says ages 12 months and up, but I would be completely comfortable having this around a baby who is even younger. I'm sure there are governmental regulations that mandate that this can't be advertised as being for younger kids though.
I have a hard time imagining this becoming anyone's favorite toy, but it is one that would look really nice on a shelf, and taken down occasionally to actually play with it. I plan to put it on a bookshelf with all of the picture books I can't bear to part with, so both the books and the toy are on hand for my occasional baby & toddler visitors.

Description
Petit Collage Where Design Meets Play
SUPER ridiculously cute and actually functional. My baby and toddler both loved this immediately. Baby put it in her mouth of course, so I like that it is non toxic. And the older one played with all of the beads and zoomed the elephant all over the floor (requiring some washing before handing back to baby!). I really like Petit Collage toys because I don't feel like I have to hide them when I am trying to make our home look nice. They are such a nice aesthetic and fit in with our decor. Plus the kids love them.
This Petit Collage Wooden Push Along Animal Car Elephant is cute and basic. Inside of the car the wood is not smooth enough for little fingers. I see the potential for splinters. We have taken a little sandpaper to smooth this out for Grandson. I find it interesting that the interior has a roughness to it while other parts of the little car are quite smooth. There is no assembly required and there are no batteries since it is designed for the child to provide all motion thereby developing motor skills. For those concerned for the environment, it is constructed of sustainable sourced wood. The paint is nontoxic. It is a simple sturdy little toy.
It's pretty simple, but with a child's imagination it seems to be a hit. I would have guessed optimal age at perhaps a bit under one to eighteen months, but a two year old was super-captivated for ten minutes. Then ignored it for ten minutes, but then came back to the lion-car for a while. And later returned to it again. My instinct is that this is not going to be an all-time favorite toy, but a good solid fun toy. Perhaps it could turn up for a road trip, or as you head into a hotel room.
Smooth wood, sustainable construction, and a simpler model of children's toys. I approve!
Very cute little wooden push toy that is made from FSC-Certified wood. There is minimal paint and the paint that is used is non-toxic.
Recommended age for this toy is 12 months or older. The two wooden pieces in the middle of the Lion can rotate and be pushed back and forth a little bit. They will also rattle a little if the toy is shaken. The only metal pieces are the axles for the wheels.
It's a cute, solid little toy.
Fun little wooden push lion for your little one. The lion is very well constructed and rolls very easily. The edges of the lion are smooth and did not hurt our grandson when he put in his mouth or pushed along the ground. The inside of the lion has two small pieces that move back and forth. Neutral colors make it perfect for boys or girls.
Perfect size for dropping in your diaper bag and taking on the go. Really like that it is a toy that is not plastic and is eco-friendly.
