Pull it and watch its ears spin — that's all a toddler needs.

The Puppy on Wheels is one of those perfectly simple toys that toddlers absolutely love at 18 months. Attach the cord, start walking, and the puppy rolls along behind on its bright red wheels with its ears rotating as it goes. The movement is just surprising enough to delight, just simple enough to understand, and just sturdy enough to survive being dragged across every floor in the house.

It's a beautiful first walking toy for a newly confident toddler — encouraging them to keep moving forward, building coordination and spatial awareness with every lap of the living room. At $20.99 it's also one of the best-value gifts in the Mentari range, and one that looks genuinely lovely on a shelf when play is done.

If you love the puppy, meet its companion — the Kitten on Wheels is the perfect pair.
