The Viga PolarB blue wooden car is a simple first vehicle for babies from 6 months. A soft pastel blue, quiet wheels and a shape made for a small hand.

This blue wooden push car belongs to the Viga PolarB line of simple shapes and soft pastel shades. At about 14 × 5 cm, it is easy for a baby to grab and push across the floor. The wheels roll quietly and evenly, the edges are rounded, and the manufacturer states the paint is non-toxic. Pushing the car trains hand movements, and over time children start inventing their own journeys. It also comes in green if you want a pair.

What your child develops

• Hand movements. Pushing and gripping train the hand.
• Following with the eyes. Your baby watches where the car rolls.
• Crawling. A rolling car becomes something to crawl after.
• Imagination. Older children invent where the car is going.

How to play

Roll the car from one hand to the other or across the rug to your baby. When they catch it, let them push it back.

Later, build a ramp from books or blocks and watch the car roll down.

A great gift

The blue wooden car is a small, sweet gift for babies from six months – for a christening or to bring when visiting.
