Hi, I am Joe! I am a collector. My wife is a collector. We have turned our toddler into a collector. One of her favorite phrases when she is missing a figure or play set (that she will notice on the back of a box) is “We need to buy it at the store.” And we usually do.
We have been collecting all sorts of toys and games for as long as we can remember, but once we had our daughter in 2009 we started buying baby toys. Fisher-Price’s “Little People” were very popular in our house, and we acquired many sets. There are a few websites you can use to track down their history and get a checklist but I noticed nothing like this existed for Little Tikes.
After we spent a few hours one Saturday morning hitting yard sales, we picked up a Tender Hearts Talking Vanity at one of our last stops. It was missing most of the accessories and I had trouble tracking them down to see exactly what they looked like. Of course Ebay was the most helpful resources, but since items are not always listed I was inspired to create this site.
Please join us in the forum and post some of your thoughts on Little Tikes.

I have recently came across a little tykes red pedal car - it has the hand controlled rear wheels for turning. stickers are in good shape; it has an adjustable seat, The stickers include #8 on each side of the front and "sport racer" on the headlights. On the back , there are tail lights and a "made in usa" for license plate. The words sport coupe are molded in the plastic on the rear bumper. I think I recall these back in the mid 80's or early 90's when my kids were little. How can I get information on this item. Is it a collectable? I have not been successful in finding any through google search or on ebay. Are they rare? is it worth the $30.00 I paid for it at a yard sale? There is a 1-800 telephone number molded into the plastic "Little Tikes Corporation , for parts, call 1-800....." Tried the number but it is no longer little tikes. It is a financial company. Any information that anyone has on this item is appreciated.
