I have lots of stories about Suzzane and her little red wagon I could share for NATIONAL LITTLE RED WAGON DAY – Last Wednesday in March. I just wish I had pictures to go with the stories.NATIONAL LITTLE RED WAGON DAY – Last Wednesday in March
I would put Suzzie in the back of the wagon and my nephew who was a baby in the front and we would head out the door to to grocery store or Sears Outlet to look around.
Then my parents moved to Poly in Fort Worth. There was a porch with 5 steps to get down to the sidewalk. If we got busy we would catch Suzzane carrying her cousin down the stairs.
She would carefully put David into the wagon and push him up and down in front of our house. The scary part is she was only 4 years old when she did this.
David and Suzzane grew up and I don’t know what happened to the Wagon which I wish I had . My dad bought the Little Red Wagon for Suzzane when she was still a newborn.
Charlie didn’t have a Little Red Wagon because his grandmother got him a Green Little Tyke Wagon which we still had fun with but I always wanted to purchase a Little Red Wagon for him to pull his toys around with.
NATIONAL LITTLE RED WAGON DAY
On the last Wednesday in March, National Little Red Wagon Day celebrates the memories in the making and the ones already made. One iconic toy wields the power of imagination for adults and children alike as it brings us together to explore, laugh and play.
For nearly 100 years, Radio Flyer has been bringing smiles to kids of all ages and creating warm memories that last a lifetime. As a brand, Radio Flyer has always supported unstructured outdoor play and its positive impact on children. With their 100th anniversary on the horizon, Radio Flyer would like to establish a day that not only celebrates kids’ imaginations but the vehicles that help them explore it – their wagons.
This iconic toy is one of the most enduring toys of all time. For generations, children have led little red wagons down Independence Day parade routes, carried out infinite imaginary missions and voyages of childhood fantasy. It is not unusual for a little red wagon to be handed down from one generation to the next, treasured like a family heirloom. The adventures are enjoyed by all, regardless of age.
