My tot has a fascination with Firefighters. He loves the bright red trucks with their loud wailing sirens, giant ladders and powerful hoses. His favorite books to take home are stories of rescue trucks and Firefighters saving the lives of both cats and people; and he loves pretending to be a brave fireman rushing out to emergencies.
A few weeks ago I was given the opportunity to review Aeromax Toys Fire Power Super Soaking Fire Hose with backpack, a firemen hose that tot could walk around with. I wish I had a photo of his face lighting up when he realized what it was that arrived, he was so excited that he refused to take it off for the rest of the day. He walked around with his fireman hat, his fireman ax and the Fire Power Super Soaking Fire Hose putting out imaginary fires and rescuing and Mommy and Daddy.
My husband had been taking tot to local Fire Stations to meet the firemen and see the rescue trucks up close and he really got excited about taking his fire hose with him to show the firefighters. So one morning that is just what we did.
The Fire Fighters were so excited to see him all dressed up and ready to go! He got to see the fireman pole, all of the different rescue trucks from fire trucks to ambulances. They even let him dress up in the locker room!
But his favorite part was getting to pretend he was out fighting fires with the fireman in the truck. He had his hose all ready to go!
I think it’s important as parents to nurture these big dreams. I always loved that Aeromax offered through their toys and Get Real Gear the chance for children to make-believe as our everyday heroes: Nurses, Police Officers, Doctors, Astronauts and Firefighters. It shares with our children how important the people are around us and how they protect and support our communities.
The Fire Power Super Soaking Fire Hose is also a lot of fun on its own. It can shoot up to a 35ft stream of water with one pump and holds (at full capacity) 50 pumps! We were putting out fires everywhere from the bath-tub to the backyard and even sometimes ourselves because it felt like we were on fire in 90′ heat! As a summer toy it is a lot of crazy fun, mix that with the world of make-believe and you have the perfect toy for kids. Which is why this one in particular won Product of the Year Award in 2011.
