Babble Best: Wagons

Fold It & Go Portable Wagon - TriGen Group $149.99

All the convenience of a stroller in the shape of a wagon makes this a must-have for families on the go. Similar to the pack 'n play, the "fold it and go" concept means pulling here and pushing there, and it takes a little practice. But once you've got a handle on it, this wagon slips into the trunk with no problem and takes up the same amount of room as your old travel stroller. The wagon is constructed of durable canvas (think those foldable lawn chairs that come with their own little bag), accompanying pad is made of guarantees a soft ride, and the optional canopy keeps the sun off their delicate skin.

Radio Flyer Trav-ler $85.65

The word "wagon" calls to mind a little red Radio Flyer, so we can't help going with another favorite from their line. For ninety years, they've been churning 'em out of their Chicago headquarters, for tots to drag the family dog and their favorite stuffed animal around the neighborhood. This incarnation of the classic red wagon boasts the original red steel frame, with wooden-stake sides that add height — and keep even a pint-sized Houdini from making his escape. And if you're looking to pimp their ride, there are wagon pads, side pads and an umbrella available.

Razor Jr. Electric Wagon: $103. 27

You can boogie woogie all you want around town and take your toddler in tow, 'cause this wagon's electric. From the company that sparked the scooter craze in the early part of the decade comes battery-powered motors that will have you power-walking at three mph all the way through town. And get this, it goes in reverse, for retrieving dropped dollies and pitched pacifiers. A two-seater, this wagon sports cupholders and an umbrella that can be removed, plus drain holes for that sippy spill.

Step 2 Wagon for Two $49.28
Trailer $23.85

What's better than one wagon to pull your kids? How about the wagon for two plus? The plus in this case is a trailer, sold separately, that easily hooks to the rear for towing their favorite animals, real or stuffed! If you opt out on the trailer, this wagon's under-the-seat storage still makes for a great hiding place for the stuff your toddler loves to chuck out along the way. Best of all, even the kid who's ready to do it "all by myself" can open the little door and climb into this wagon for a ride around the block.
