A riding toy includes a body with a spring assembly supporting the body on a base so that the body may be moved in first and second motions with respect to the base. The riding toy also includes a microcontroller and first and second motion sensors responsive to the first and second motions, respectively. The first and second motion sensors are positioned on the body and in electronic communication with the microcontroller. A sound synthesizing circuit is in electronic communication with the microcontroller and a speaker. The microcontroller is programmed to provide a first sound effect when the first motion sensor detects the first motion and a second sound effect when the second sensor detects the second motion. The first sound effect is varied based on a speed of the first motion and preempts the second sound effect if both the first and second motions are taking place simultaneously. The riding toy also includes a light sensor in electronic communication with the microprocessor. The microprocessor activates the sound synthesizing circuit to produce a third sound effect when the light sensor is triggered.

A scooter features a top tube attached to the top portion of a steering column and handlebars having handgrips and stems, with the stems sized to be received within the open ends of the top tube when in a use configuration. A handlebar holder housing covers a top portion of the steering column and a portion of the top tube and includes holding bores sized to receive the handlebar stems when the handlebars are in a storage configuration. The handlebar stems are provided with spring pins that engage use apertures and storage apertures formed in the top tube and housing, respectively, when in the handlebars are in the use and storage configurations. A cord passes through the top tube and is fastened to the handlebars. The handlebar holder housing includes cord slots in communication with the holding bores and receive the cord when the first and second handlebars are in the storage configuration.

An infant wagon includes a body having a seating surface. A number of wheels and a handle are attached to the body. A seatback is pivotally attached to the body adjacent to the seating surface. The seatback may be pivoted between a folded position where the seating surface is covered, an upright position and a reclined position. An infant seat is removably attached to the seatback when in the reclined position.

A scooter features a deck tube with a steering column having a front wheel and handlebars are pivotally attached to a leading portion of the deck tube by a steering column. A rear wheel attached to a trailing portion of the deck tube. A deck features a channel portion that receives the deck tube so that the deck is supported on the deck tube. Interlocking decorative clips are removably positioned on the steering column, and each features a generally C-shaped body constructed from a semi-rigid material.
