Toomies Dino Rescue Ranger

The Toomies Dino Rescue Ranger is a colourful push-and-go dinosaur toy set from the Jurassic World range, designed for babies and toddlers from 12 months who love vehicles, animals and hands-on play. It pairs a rescue car with a matching trailer, two friendly baby dinosaurs and a set of shape pieces, so one toy invites a few different ways to play — rolling, shape sorting and open-ended pretend adventures.

Up front in the rescue car is a baby Triceratops. Give the little dino a shake to hear a cute growl, or pop it into the driver's seat and watch it spin as the car is pushed along. Hook the rescue trailer to the car and you'll find a poorly Brachiosaurus inside, ready to head off for his check-up. Because there are no batteries required, play is powered entirely by your child's own hands — push, chase, load and unload as often as they like.

Three ways to play in one set

The trailer doubles as its own push-and-go vehicle. Hook it up, load the rescue gear shapes into their matching spaces along the side, then press down on the Brachiosaurus's head to send everything speeding away. Chasing after the car gives little ones a reason to get moving, while fitting each shape into its right spot turns tidying the gear into a small puzzle. However your child chooses to play, the set keeps them busy exploring a Jurassic World of their own making.

How it works

• Cause and effect: The baby dino spins as the car is pushed along, giving an immediate, repeatable reaction that helps little ones connect their action with what happens next.
• Shape matching: Each rescue gear piece has a matching space on the side of the trailer, so children can practise looking, comparing and fitting the right shape into the right slot.
• Push-and-go movement: Both the car and the trailer roll freely with a push, inviting your child to send them off and chase after them across the floor.

What the play encourages

• ✔ Chasing the moving car encourages gross motor skills
• ✔ Matching the rescue gear shapes to the trailer encourages logic, problem solving and fine motor skills
• ✔ The spinning dino teaches cause and effect through action and reaction
• ✔ The baby dinosaurs and rescue storyline invite imaginative, open-ended play

Best for

The Toomies Dino Rescue Ranger is a great option for parents who:

• Have a little one aged 12 months and up who enjoys vehicles, animals or pushing toys around
• Want a battery-free toy that keeps play in the child's hands
• Are looking for one set that offers a few different play patterns — rolling, sorting and pretend
• Prefer easy-to-hold pieces suited to small hands

The pieces are easy to hold and sized for babies and toddlers, and the whole set measures roughly 280 mm wide, 210 mm high and 100 mm deep. As with any toy that includes smaller shape pieces, keep an eye on younger, mouthing siblings during play.
