kiddie rides?

Can't Post | Private Reply

Hi...

On a recent trip to Mexico, I took some pictures of the "kiddie rides", the little car or bus or airplane or horse that parents put their kids in or on, perhaps in a store, bus station or game parlour in a mall. Put in some coins and they go up or down or all around.

What are they called, those ride-things?

I found "juegos" for "amusement park rides" in one dictionary. Is there a more specific term? Would you use "juego" for an amusement park ride, or is there a more usual word (esp. in Mexico)?

Thanks,

tom
