Our favorite feature of this "wood" paneled Hawaiian makeover has got to be the hula girl!

This mom decorated the Little Tike car as part of her son's Halloween costume. Read more here.

A ladybug makeover for a little girl nicknamed "Layne Bug."
While these might not be quite our style, we salute the effort to make something a little more special with the ubiquitous plastic Little Tike. (Or you can always do what Flickr user, KKellyS, did and relegate your Little Tike car to the garden to live out its days as a planter.)
Any ideas for how you'd trick out a Little Tike car?

If my kid finds it beautiful, then so do I. Dirt is beautiful!

the make over is horrible. The little car is iconic. We had one almost 20 years ago and looking at that yellow and red car brings back fond memories

I had bookmarked this one a while ago too when someone gave us at hideous Wiggles car (I ban the Wiggles in our house). But I never quite got around to creativity yet.

That is hilarious! A mini hearse for the toddler set.

It could see it done really cute, like flower silhouettes or flames.

I think these are brilliant. I'm sure the kids will not forget their "personalized" cars.

My Ghostbusters-obsessed son recently took the decals off of his Little Tikes Police Coupe and instead taped his own drawings (ghost with red line through it) to the doors, turning it into the Ecto 1. It's pretty hilarious.

what! I love the little tike car... it's an icon... only I didn't put the stickers on the one we bought our son, I preferred it "clean".
