Getting my daughter into a power wheels

For those of you who don’t know, my 6 years old daughter Clara has dwarfism and is 1’5” tall at 18 pounds. I was thinking it would be really cool to get her a Power wheels car. Could it be modified though in order to use it ? I mean, this is going to be her power wheels, so it would be nice if we could make it where she was able to do everything from getting in it to “driving“ it around and being able to sit on the seat and reach everything while being tall enough to see over the windshield.

Also just to clarify I’m talking about those little kids power wheel cars that only go a couple of miles an hour

You can adjust the speed so it doesnt go fast biggest issue is will her righr foot be able to push down on the accelerator, can a l so build a box to keep her left foot balanced when she is accelerating. They also have remote control cars tĥat the adult can stop and start plus speed up all they do is ride and steer.

@2ndtimeguy we would need to modify it so she could reach the pedal while also being able to comfortably sit in the seat. We would also need to make sure that she’s tall enough to see over the windshield. And be able to climb in. We could get the remote control one but she’s six years old, it would be nice if this could be truly her power wheels if you know what I mean.

Even the power wheels for toddlers that would be too big for her. Clara is a tad smaller than a newborn, and they don’t make power wheels for newborns

@Clarashelper Put a pad on the seat and blocks on the pedals . Then let her blast the song.
