Our testers love both the Mini and Maxi Kick Scooters from Kickboard USA. The mini is now available in aqua. The three wheel design of these scooters makes them much more stable–which translates into a much faster learning curve. They are both on our Platinum List this year. Please remember to bring home a helmet! According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons “Non-powered scooter-related injuries accounted for an estimated 84,000 emergency room visits in 2001, 85 percent of the patients were children under 15.”

This (in royal blue) was my daughter’s big birthday present when she turned 2. A huge hit!
The Kick Scooter seems to be a lot safer than most scooters which is always my problem with scooters. They look more stable, but you are right – you still need a helmet.
Yuppy. Best information. MindFlex is the best future game.
Zhu pets are fantastic way to give the kids a pet without really having to deal with the responsibilities of having a real hamster. Really fun and quirky characters , a great collectable toy.
