Radio Flyer is hosting its first-ever Camp Radio Flyer

A free and at-home summer camp next week!

Next week, Radio Flyer is hosting its first-ever Camp Radio Flyer, a free and at-home summer camp that’s sure to bust boredom and inspire imagination for kids of all ages!

Young Antonio Pasin came to America from Venice in search of better life and first built phonograph cabinets with his father and grandfather in Chicago. He made other products as well including the wooden coaster wagon he named the Liberty Coaster for the statue that had welcomed him to America.

Everyone wanted the wagon he made and he sold them day and night. It was 1917 when Radio Flyer company was born. The first steel wagon was named Radio Flyer. Pasin began with a passion for design and the company, over 100 years later, continues to provide quality and love of beautiful design in their toys. Always encouraging families to get out and play!
