Little Tikes My First Flyer
Ages 4 Years & Up | ARV: $42.99 ($32.99 with free shipping at Target!)
My 3 year old LOVES this helicopter. There are 4 buttons: Take Off, Land, Stop (drops to the ground), and Right Turn. This means it is easy for a young child to control, but they have to turn all the way right to turn left. The remote makes flying/landing noises and is the right size for little hands. The helicopter charges directly from the remote in about 30 minutes, which gives 10-15 minutes of fly time. It flies low, 3-4 feet in the air, and has guards on the blades, though they still sting a little if they hit skin. Great holiday gift for the young pilot in your house!
