Whenever we go to the store my son wants to ride in the car shopping cart. So this was a great gift for him because now he can use it at home and he pushes around Elmo all around the house like I do to him in the grocery store. I give him those recyclable shopping bags & he pretends my pantry closet is the store. It entertains him for hours and the best part is he's near me in the house when he plays with it & it can go anywhere we go. When the weather gets better he will take it outside & play with it too I am sure.
