Hey there, Burleigh Wagon fans! While our wagon was designed with plenty of cool features, our wagon owners have figured out even more exciting ways to make the most of it in their everyday lives. We've compiled a list of the five most creative ways wagon owners have used their Burleigh Wagons, and we can't wait to share them with you. From creating a portable sensory play space to using it to carry farm and camping gear, our wagon owners have truly found innovative ways to incorporate the wagon into their daily routines. Plus, our wagon is a great tool for helping to take senior dogs out with the family, incorporating it into costumes, and even using it for disability-friendly transportation. Have a read for some of the most creative ways to use the Burleigh Wagon - As shown by other Burleigh Wagon owners!
1. Create a mess-free, portable sensory play space
Looking for a way to keep your little ones entertained without worrying about the mess? Turn the Burleigh Wagon into a portable sensory play table! By popping in the esky bungs at the bottom of the wagon, you can create a mess-free area for toddlers and small children to explore the world of sensory play and water activities. The spacious storage area underneath means you can fill it with water and toys, and your kids can splash around to their heart's content, without you having to worry about cleaning up afterward. Just ask @_notjustamum on Instagram who turned hers into a sensory table - Plus, this type of play helps your kids learn about different textures and improves their fine motor skills too!
2. Use it to carry farm, snow and camping gear
Did you know that the Burleigh Wagon isn't just for beach and park days? It can be used on all sorts of adventures! If you're planning a longer trip, the wagon is perfect for hauling camping gear to your campsite. It's also a great addition to any snowy adventure for carrying sleds and all the snow gear. For those of you living the farm life, it’s a lifesaver for transporting animal feed, buckets, and whatever else you need - No more sore arms and backs from transporting heavy loads. Plus, you don’t need to worry about it getting dirty, because it’s super easy to clean!
3. Help Take Senior Dogs Outside For Fresh Air
Did you know that the Burleigh Wagon isn't just for kids and adults? It's also an excellent tool for our furry friends, especially those who are getting up there in age and have difficulty moving around. Just ask Amy on Instagram who loved it for her Basset Hound! If you have an old dog or another pet that struggles to keep up with your family's outdoor adventures, the wagon can be a lifesaver (and help you avoid leaving them at home all the time). Simply pop them in the wagon, secure their harness to one of our safety belts, and wheel them around, giving them a chance to enjoy the fresh air and sunshine alongside the rest of the family. With the wagon's spacious storage area, you can even bring along their favourite toys and treats, making the adventure even more enjoyable for your four-legged friend!
4. Incorporate It Into Costume Parties
Have you ever considered using the Burleigh Wagon as part of your costume parties? Well, you can! The wagon can be dressed up in all sorts of ways, making it a great addition to your kids' costumes or as a standalone feature at a house party. Imagine it as a haunted car, a train, or even a magic carpet! The possibilities are endless, and the wagon can add a unique touch to any party. We at the Burleigh Wagon team absolutely loved seeing everyone's creative costumes last Halloween, and we're excited to see what you come up with this year! So don't be afraid to get creative and use the wagon as part of your next party. It's a fun and exciting way to take your party to the next level!
5. Disability-Friendly Transportation
As parents ourselves, we understand how challenging it can be to get out of the house with kids, especially those with special needs. That's why we're so passionate about helping other special needs parents to enjoy time out of the house more with their kids. The wagon is a great tool for families with special-needs children, as it can be purchased with NDIS funding in Australia, and can be used to get special-needs kids out of the house safely. With its spacious storage area, it provides a place to store medical equipment and the 3-point safety belts ensure that children can be securely strapped in without worrying about escape. We’ve worked with many NDIS families over the years, and can honestly say this has been one of the most rewarding parts of the business so far!
We hope these creative ways that our Burleigh Wagon owners have used their wagons have inspired you to think outside the box when it comes to your own adventures. Whether you're using it to take your furry friend out for a stroll, incorporating it into your costume party, or creating a sensory play space for your little ones, the possibilities are endless. We're proud to offer a versatile tool that can be used in so many different ways, and we can't wait to see what other creative uses our Burleigh Wagon owners come up with next.
