Step2 Roller Coaster Up & Down Ride On, Multicolor (711400)

Amazon.com It may not feature any loop-de-loops or terrifying hairpin turns, but preschoolers will likely find this 10-foot-long roller coaster every bit as thrilling as grownups find the amusement park version.

Molded in brightly colored plastic, it's built for years of wear in either the playroom or the backyard.

The set's components fit together to form a downhill ride with another smaller hill about halfway through.

What we loved most about this set is the fact that the individual parts are just as much fun as the fully assembled kit.

The car, bright yellow with a sturdy handle, could just as easily be used around the house if the child is too young for the coaster.

And the ramp system is plenty of fun to roll cars, balls, or anything else.

Perhaps our tiny toy tester said it best: "Wheee!" --John Moe
