PlasmaCars are Fun for All Ages!

When I first saw the PlasmaCars, I didn't know quite what to think. I liked their bright colors and the interesting, curious shape. The scientist part of me wanted to understand the physics behind their movement. The kid in me wanted to start riding one right away. But, I was patient and let my kids go first. Which brings up an interesting point: both kids and adults can ride these things. They are a lot of fun to ride.

You will want to be careful if you or your kids decide to ride one. They work great on any hard surface, but I would not ride on hardwood floors or linoleum; the turning back and forth could scrape up the flooring. When you are just casually riding, the gentle, back and forth motion would be fine. When you get the urge to race, though, that is when the scraping may occur. Sidewalks and driveways are perfect. You will be amazed at how proficient you will become in no time, swinging and steering around obstacles.

I also want to let you know that these are incredibly durable toys. Our kids have been racing and crashing their PlasmaCars for years now, literally. Other than some superficial scrapes, they are still in fine working condition. I just rode one the other day. Go on over to Town Square Toys and check one out today!
