It is appreciated that the axis 382' is a tilt axis extending substantially parallel to the ground rolling plane 430.
  • the arrangement is such that the handle assembly 374' is pivotally manipulable about pivot axis 382' into a walk-behind position (Figs. 10A and 10B), wherein the handle assembly 374' is pivoted in direction of arrow 436, wherein the handle grips 378' are disposed above and behind the seat portion 380' (and above and behind the bridging portion 411), hereby a toddler can walk behind the riding toy 400, at the rear walking space 426, while gripping the handle grips 378'.
  • the riding toy 400 can be used also at a walk behind position, however pushing the toy in an opposite direction, i.e., with the toddler walking at the front space 428 and pushing towards the rear portion of the toy.
  • the riding toy can be used in the walk-behind position at either front or rear direction, respectively, and irrespective of the terms 'front' and 'rear' associated with the structure of the riding toy.
  • a suitable arresting mechanism can be configured (not shown) for arresting the handle assembly 374' and preventing spontaneous pivotal displacement between the respective walk-behind position and ride- on position.
  • the respective handle bar extends between the bottom end of the at least one front leg and the bottom end of the rear legs, and more specifically, between the bottom end of the at least one front leg and a front portion of the bridging portion), whilst in the walk-behind position the respective handle bar extends between the bottom end of the rear legs and a rear portion of the bridging portion.
