Product description

 

Designed for kids ages 3-5, the mini kick is the quality choice in children's scooters. The mini won the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold and the Platinum Award Seals for Best Toy in 2009. The mini kick also was named 'Best Pre-School Scooter' by Toy Report and 'Best Outdoor Toy' by Learning Express Stores. What makes the mini unique is its its 'lean-and-steer' design, which allows children to use their body weight to control the steering, giving them the feeling of 'surfing' the sidewalk, as they curve from right to left, almost like a skateboard. The lean-and-steer adds an element of fun and control that young children love. The mini kick's 3 wheels provide greater stability, making it easier for even the youngest kids to learn to ride. Great for their balance and coordination. The wheels are Italian-made of highest quality PU, especially for micro. They provide a smooth glide, making the Mini almost effortless to ride. The wheels also make for a quiet ride, a joy for parents and children alike. The mini kick can be ridden inside as well as outside, because the polyurethane wheels don't leave black marks on the floor. The deck of the mini is low-to-the-ground and large enough for both feet, making it easy for young children to hop on and off and to switch from pushing, to just enjoying the ride. The 'spoon' brake at the back adds additional control - kids like the control and also because it looks just like the big kids' scooters. For parents, the mini's light weight (only 3.3lbs), means it's easy to pick up and carry when need be, and makes it easier for the kids themselves to pick up and maneuver. Note: - the mini kick can hold weights up to 60lbs, when used for cruising, but was not designed for jumps or tricks. For a scooter designed to do jumps and tricks, please see the amazing mx park stunt scooter!

Has your child ever dreamt of surfing the pavement just like the bigger kids? Now it's easier than ever before with the Mini-Micro kick scooter, which allows children from 3 to 5 years old to enjoy all the fun and freedom of scooting. The ergonomics and handling of the Mini-Micro were developed with youngsters in mind, with three wheels to keep the rider from falling over, a back brake for safety, low ground clearance, and a simple Powerstic steering mechanism. The company also avoided using any sharp edges in the Mini-Micro to prevent unfortunate bumps and bruises. Most importantly, the trendy toy--which weighs only 3.7 pounds--allows toddlers to surf the asphalt while simultaneously improving their motor skills, balance, and coordination.

The Mini-Micro is built to last, with a polyamide base construction reinforced with 40-percent glass fiber and a polypropylene body. And when it's time to pack up and head home, you can easily remove the steering column and store the Mini-Micro in a backpack. The Mini-Micro is the ultimate kick scooter for youngsters of all skill levels.

    « Big hit for 3 year old girl. »
    This was a hit with my 3 year old daughter. She got it for her 3rd birthday. It was simple to put together, has a nice and practical design, is perfectly sized for her, and she's able to carry it around if necessary. She gets some good speed on it, and immediately picked up on how to use the brake. She's still working on steering but enjoys riding on it very much. It makes a great 1st scooter.

    « Best Buy! »
    I used this to transition my daughter out of her stroller and it was such a big hit that she never looked back! Also, I walk my daughter to school 1/4 mile each way every day. She rode the scooter to school, on weekends, walking the dog, going on shopping trips, etc. This is definitely a best buy. Evenutally, I had to graduate my girl to the Maxi Kick because she outgrew it. I highly recommend this product and it is worth every cent!

    « Fun, cute and easy to use »
    This is a great first time scooter. My 3-yr old loves it and it is light to carry. It was easy to assemble and great hot pink color.

    « Terrific Scooter »
    My kids (age 2 and 4) love this scooter. We've had it over 6 months now and it's still in perfect condition. They can go very fast on it & it's very stable. Going to buy another one (in orange) for my younger child's upcoming birthday so they'll no longer have to share. It's pricey but I highly recommend.

    « The absolute best scooter! »
    We bought this for my daughter's second birthday and she LOVES it. She has 2 tricycles, but she never wants to ride them, just her scooter. She mastered riding it very quickly, except for the brake, which she is still working on. She rides with a 4 and a 5 year old and she is much faster than either of them! Her friends 3-wheel scooters (other brands, both of which have 2 wheels in the back) look so rickety and dangerous compared to her Mini Kick which glides very smoothly and is easy to steer. We lost her original Mini-Kick scooter during a hotel stay and it was dearly missed so we had to purchase a second one, and we would do it again if needed.
