Ride On Aeroplanes A local Whanganui chap makes these amazing ride-on wooden aeroplanes. They are extremely sturdy and suitable for all young children and can be painted in different colours. Charmika has purchased one for Barsanti - they absolutely love it - the children were on it all Friday afternoon! They are priced at $280 and very well made and durable.
