Can you please design a version for kids to ride on?

With a seat and handle similar to "wooden bee ride on" by b. toys?

I want a vacuum that kids can actually drive, ride on, do real vacuuming and has minimal levels so safety, like turning it over halts vacuums, stairs/ledges are avoided, and lack of rollers or items that could snare a kids hair, etc.

There may be benefits of fusion of child input signals with supervisory vacuums route goals. Would be age dependent, older kids would want full manual I think.

Kids like to do real jobs, and as a parent I prefer purchasing real items for my kids rather than toy versions if practical.

Real vacuums have existed for a very long time now :P
