Description:
Children should NEVER be taken "for a ride" on riding lawnmowers or even be near one when it is running. All children under 5 years old should be INSIDE the house when the lawn is being mowed. Even push mowers are dangerous and can throw objects such as rocks and nails and cause serious injury. Lawnmowers/garden tractors are NOT toys and children should not be encouraged to play on them even if they are turned off. PLEASE heed this warning.
