Little Red Wagon


๐Ÿš— A Century of Imagination on Wheels

Since 1917, the Radio Flyer Little Red Wagon has rolled through generations of childhood adventures — a symbol of creativity, freedom, and fun.

Antonio Pasin, an Italian immigrant, built the first wooden wagons in his Chicago workshop and named them “Liberty Coasters.” Soon, the bright red wagon became a fixture in American yards, parks, and memories.

Today, we celebrate Little Red Wagon Day — a day to honor that spark of imagination that turns an ordinary toy into a vehicle for dreams.
