Three-Wheel scooters

There are two main types of scooters for children: the more-trick-ready, two-wheeled models, and the more stable three-wheelers that teach balance and weight shifting. Some scooters feature wheels on the back to provide extra stability. Some use the bicycle-like steering system, where kids lean forward to steer. We discovered that 3-wheelers with polyurethane wheels (versus plastic) provide a smooth ride on pavement and sidewalk cracks. They also have a shorter turning radius than two-wheelers.

For kids to be able to ride comfortably they require a wide foot deck that lets their feet fit on the platform without rub against each other.

Its 125 mm wheels are made from polyurethane which gives a smooth and quiet ride on various surfaces.

To ensure that scooters are in good working order for the long haul, children should be sure to wear helmets and pads that protect their elbows and knees. Lauren Drobnjak, a pediatric physical therapist, recommends that children use a scooter with handlebars at a height where their arms are on 90 degrees from their shoulders. She also advises that riders should always wear shoes and socks. Scooter owners should regularly clean their wheels, and lubricate them using silicone grease to stop the metal from rubbing against each other.

Four-Wheel Scooters

Every body type and style can be accommodated by a scooter. Some factors that influence your decision include whether you prefer a three-wheeled or four-wheeled model, the turning radius, and weight capacity.
