The children were riding the toy car on the crossroad in Zunhua county on Sunday, according to a social media post from the provincial police.
Surveillance footage shows the little boy in the fake vehicle with the young girl as they slowly drive past a stream of oncoming traffic.
The children were believed to have been playing with the toy car in the neighbourhood by themselves before driving it onto the main road.
But their dangerous adventure quickly came to a halt after a woman driving on the other lane spotted the youngsters.

The news comes as a Chinese mother has been caught riding a toy car with her young child on a busy road – and even running a red light.
Social media footage from May captured the parent and her friend driving two plastic cars carrying the young boy on a crossroad with heavy traffic as pedestrians looked on.
The mother, known by her surname Gong, received a reprimand for her ‘thoughtless’ action from local police in southern Chinese province Hunan.
