the challenge
Pushcarts have provided many hours of enjoyment for children. A pushcart is a billycart that is designed to be pushed by one person and steered by another person seated in it. As with many products, science and technology have contributed to the evolution of the pushcart.
Today pushcarts are built using a variety of materials; in all sorts of shapes and with a focus on safety. |
