Author: Rob FillmoreRemember the little red wagons called My Little Red Flyers? The same company that produced the classic little red wagon has a line of scooters. The Radio Flyer Scooter comes in several different models so that children as young as two years old can successfully operate a scooter. An example of the company's products includes a My 1st Scooter.
Young children who are fascinated by a razor will be able to manage a 1st Scooter. The model intended as an early childhood scooter known as the Flyer is created with a concern for the safety of the very young child. Physical abilities may not yet be developed to the point where the child can safely operate a standard scooter.
My 1st Scooter by Radio Flyer is designed to be more stable than other scooters. The platform is a foot wide. There is a single rear wheel and a double wheel in front to give better balance. A scooter for a more coordinated child may have a single front wheel and double rear wheels. My 1st Scooter takes more effort to turn, but this also means that it is less likely to tip over.
The old-model Flyer wagon in red metal with white lettering dates back to the 1940's and 1950's. The Radio Flyer scooters are designed in durable plastic. The scooters are the same red as the wagons, with white lettering. You can also purchase My 1st Scooter in pink.
Children get on the scooter by simply stepping up and onto the platform. Tricycles can be difficult for a child to climb onto, simply because they are not well balanced. Safety is important for increasing the confidence of the youngster. Scooters are easy to get on and off.
The Little Red Scooter by Radio Flyer is constructed to suit a somewhat older child with better skills of balance and coordination. The platform may be too short once a child is older and larger. The short platform means that ankles get scratched and bumped during the operation of a scooter.
The Little Red Scooter is great inside or outside for the preschooler. It is more maneuverable for a child because the single wheel in front is easier to turn than a double wheel. At the same time, because there is not as much resistance to turning the scooter, a child who gets in a hurry can be involved in some spectacular crashes. When the scooter goes one direction and the child goes in another direction, it's likely that band-aids will be necessary.
To protect your child while riding a new Radio Flyer Scooter, you should make certain that necessary safety equipment and clothing is part of a safe riding outfit. A lightweight helmet to protect the child's head and elbow pads to protect from skins and bumps is key to safety in play. The child also should wear knee pads and shin pads for protection from scrapes and bumps. Because the equipment doesn't weigh much, children are more likely to choose to wear it.
