Push the handle, pull the choke… you can’t help thinking of that nursery rhyme when looking at this video. This little boy on his Peg Perego John Deere is stuck in a hole and is doing his best to get out of it. He looks decidedly cross. “All I needed was this,” his expression seems to say, as he looks at the wheels spinning and, to his complete surprise, the tractor slips backwards and returns exactly to where it was before.

After sadly getting off the tractor and checking the hole (is it easier to fill it in or go round it?), he tries reversing, until he is almost at a right angle with the road, which puzzles him even more.

Driving a Peg Perego John Deere electric tractor in the countryside is a lesson in life – don’t give up if at first you don’t succeed, study the problem from all angles and… remember that daddy can help you
