Can you imagine how thrilled your child will be when they first receive their new kids electric scooter. Of course there is some research to do before that purchase is made. The scooter should be a stand up model with a large deck for balance, good brakes, good steering mechanism and quality tires for a soft ride. There are a variety of styles, colors and shapes to achieve that “cool” look. Then there is the “WOW” factor, that is what it is all about.
Electric scooters for kids are a great way to learn riding skills. Also, there is a sense of pride of ownership. As a parent it is fun to see this develop in your child. Just watching them having fun and riding on their own little machine is worth its weight in gold. Training and supervision by parents is important. Learning balance, how and when to brake, steering properly, not to ride on hills and being aware of your surroundings. Lets not forget pride of ownership and learning how to maintain a scooter are good skills. It is surprising what a screw driver, a wrench and a rag can do. Ease of maintenance gets a gold star from me. Sounds like some good extra life skills will have been learned.
You can find a cheaper electric scooter for kids for about $150.00 or upgrade to the $250.00 to $300.00 range. Your focus should be to find a scooter that meets you needs. There may be a some bells and whistles for a few extra dollars this is where the “cool factor” comes into play. Of course the fact they are quiet and friendly to the environment receives another gold star.
At this point it is time to talk about the battery. The reason for this is once you have found a scooter that meets the other needs we have discussed the battery is a key issue. An entry level scooter will have a battery up to about 140 watts and are for kids under 60 lbs. These scooters have a speed of up to 12 miles per hour and a range of about 15 miles on one charge. They are light weight and easy to store and transport to a friends house or on holiday. Everything is relative, as there is an increase in battery wattage the speed increases to a top range of 30 to 35 miles per hour and up to 4 hours of riding time. I would suggest if there is any question in your mind that you buy a 250 watt motor. If you are concerned about the speed when your kid first starts using an electric scooter the power level can be adjusted.
Safety when using a kids electric scooter is always important. Scooters are built for traveling on flat surfaces so your child should not be having any off road adventures. Being able to control, brake and steer is imperative. These points do require emphasis. It is recommended that a helmet, knee pads, elbow pads, gloves and good shoes be used while training and for long as you can keep them on your child. Later a “cool” helmet, “cool” bike gloves, jeans, long sleeved shirt and good shoes should keep the parents comfort level intact.
Kids electric scooters can be a safe, fun experience improving the bond between parent and child. Allowing them to grow and obtain a sense of responsibility at the same time. Check out a scooter that meets your kid’s needs before you buy.
