When Radio Flyer asked us to partner up on a sponsored post and come out to their headquarters to cover the world premiere showing of their awesome animated short, Taking Flight, we jumped at the chance. My family history with Radio Flyer dates back to 1939 when my mom was a toddler, rockin' her sunglasses on a Sunshine Flyer! I have fond memories of my own little red wagon and Radio Flyer sled from my childhood. And now I'm a mom of two teens who grew up loving their multiple Radio Flyer toys.
We adored Taking Flight and have the short available right here for you to see below, along with loads of playful shots from the world premiere. It's a charming celebration of creative and multigenerational bonding and a crowd pleaser for all ages. If you've got a fun history with Radio Flyer, they're also collecting stories and photos and picking weekly winners for some sweet prizes! Full details are below.
Love the shirt "That's How I Roll". Too cute.

Chicago-based Radio Flyer and critically-acclaimed Moonbot Studios have teamed up to produce the award-winning animated short film Taking Flight. The film is inspired by the life and heritage of Antonio Pasin, inventor of the beloved Little Red Wagon. In the fictional tribute, what begins as a small boy’s boring day with Grandpa turns into a larger-than-life journey of imaginative play. To-date, the film has received more than 14 awards and accolades from international and local film festivals.
