Description of Mini kick Scooter - PINK, for kids age 3-5. Winner of the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold and Platinum Best Toy Award Seals - ALSO available in new Yellow, Green, Aqua, Orange and Blue
Kickboard USA is the official distributor for Micro-Moblity, Switzerland, makers of the Mini Kick scooter for kids ages 2-5, the Maxi Kick scooter for kids ages 5-10, and a full line of quality scooters for teens and adults. The Mini Kick is the quality choice in children's scooters. In 2011 the Mini was awarded the Parent's Choice Approved Seal and in 2009, it won the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold and Platinum Award Seals for Best Toy. The Mini also was named 'Best Pre-School Scooter' by Toy Report, 'Best Outdoor Toy' by Learning Express Stores and was featured on the NBC Today Show as part of its 'Best Toys for Summer' series. What makes the Mini unique is its quality construction and '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 stability and fun, great for learning balance and coordination. The Mini's 3 wheels make it easy for even the youngest kids to ride. The youngest kids (ages 2 and 3) will normally start riding in a straight line but learn quite quickly, almost intuitively, to gently lean, in order to steer. The older kids (ages 4 and 5) become very proficient, curving right and left as they 'surf' the sidewalk. The rear brake adds to the safety and fun. The Mini can be ridden inside while learning (or waiting for Spring) as the Italian made wheels are non marking. The wheels and shock absorbent deck work in unison to provide an incredibly smooth, quiet ride, a joy for parents and children alike. The mini's light weight (only 3.3 lbs), makes it easy for young kids to control and convenient for parents to pick up and carry when need be. Weight limit 44lbs. Children love to ride the mini kick daily, year after year and the modular construction means that all parts are replaceable, so it can last, virtually forever.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.

Customer Review: Best money I've spent in a long time!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
Bought this for my 4 year old daughter in an attempt to get her out and moving more... and hopefully keep up with her older brother. I saw a three year old ripping around on one at a park and actually wrote the name down. I figured it was a gamble but worth a try... well it works great! She loves it, took to it right away and not only does she keep up but it did wonders to boost her self-confidence! People stop us all the time and ask about it. I tell them it was pricey but worth every penny! We walk her older brother to school and back every day, no more whining!Customer Review: Thre best scooter!!

I ordered this scooter for my 4 year old. We already had 2 micro minis by Huffy that my twins love. This scooter appears to be much improved upon the Huffy models,on which the brakes broke off and the springs in the steering broke. My four year old can easily zip around on this scooter! it is sturdy and easy to balance and turn on and since the 2 wheels are in the front little ones aren't banging their feet on the bulky 2 back wheels on other toddler or "training" type scooters! LOVE IT!!!!!!!! BUY IT!!!!!!! Totally worth the extra money.Customer Review: My daughter LOVES it

My 4 year old has gone NUTS over her scooter since Christmas morning. At night she cries because "I don't want to ever sleep again, I just want to ride my scooter"!!
It's wonderful to have a non-electronic, no batteries needed, exercise-inducing toy that my child just adores. I'm sure that at some point she'll splatter in the driveway and skin her knees a little, but that's part of being a kid, right?
I highly recommend it as a great way to get your kids off the couch and away from the bloody television!!
Customer Review: great buy

This seems to be a sturdy little scooter (it's been ridden three times since Christmas- would be more used if the weather was more cooperative). It's my daughter's first scooter, and she's doing fine balance-wise. My only concern would be that the handle doesn't seem to be adjustable, so she may outgrow it before summer is over (she's almost 5, and growing taller fast). In the meantime, it's just what she wanted and the smooth ride encourages her to keep moving. We think it's great!Customer Review: Perfect choice

I bought this scooter for my granddaughter for her 4th birthday. It's terrific. We've had none of the problems I've seen in reviews for other scooters--this one rolls smoothly, rolls a l-o-n-g way with a good push, is stable, and just top-notch in every way. She loves it so much her parents say she never walks anywhere in the house anymore--she scoots. Yes, it costs more than the others, but based on various reviews, I think it was the right choice.
