Want little European flare and a lot of USA fun?

Then the Mini Kickboard Scooter is one product you cannot pass up for your child!

The Mini Kickboard Scooter is a toy I can get behind…or in front of…or swivel around! Ok, perhaps I am too ‘big’ for this particular scooter, but that doesn’t stop me from dreaming of having one. Thankfully, my 4 year old daughter actually got to ‘test drive’ the pink Mini Kickboard Scooter available at Kickboard® USA (the official distributor) and absolutely LOVED it:

And what child wouldn’t? This is by far the best scooter I’ve seen on the market and my daughters agree. From it’s sleek, thoughtful design, to it’s easy steering and safety brake, any child would be thrilled to jump on the Mini Kickboard and scoot all over town. And any parent will great knowing that their child is getting plenty of fresh air and exercise while riding a fun, safe product.

The Mini Kick Scooters and Kickboard® USA Story:

“Formerly Micro Scooters America, Kickboard® USA is the official distributor of the award-winning Mini and Maxi Scooters and G-bike for Micro-Mobility in Switzerland, selling online direct to consumers and also to specialty stores.”

“Julie’s interest in Micro® scooters was a case of love at first sight. Living in London at the time, she spotted a commuter on a scooter and marveled at it’s beauty (the scooter’s) – she craned her neck to read the brand, m-cro – Micro’s brand featured a sideways “i” — it was a name she had heard, but not seen and she was immediately impressed with the design and evident quality. She immediately fell in love with the design and quickly became a big advocate. Using her management experience as an executive in the financial markets began to work with Micro to distribute the mini scooters and g-bikes in the United States. And thank goodness she did or our little darlings would miss out on a wonderful opportunity to ride one of the coolest (and safest) toys available today!”

What the Mini Kickboard Scooter is all about:

The Mini Kickboard Scooter is a superb, high quality scooter for young children. Its unique ‘lean-and-steer’ design allows children to use their body weight to control the steering, giving kids the feeling of ’surfing’ the sidewalk, as they curve from right to left, almost like a skateboard, adding an element of fun and control that young children love.

It’s also designed with 3 wheels for greater stability and control. The Mini Kickboard Scooter is also ow-to-the-ground and large enough for two feet, making it easy for young children to hop on and off and to switch from pushing -to just enjoying the ride. Finally, it has cool ’spoon’ brake at the back for additional control. The weight restriction on the mini kick scooter is 60lbs (approx. ages 2-5). Kickboard® USA also carries the Maxi Scooter (kids ages 6-10) as well as the G-Bike, helmets, equipment and adult scooters galore! So there is a little something for every member of the family at Kickboard® USA!

My humble assessment:

I LOVE that the Mini Kickboard Scooter is light weight and that it has helped Pandi (my 4 year old) have so much fun outside while encouraging her to develop her gross (and fine) motor skills and sense of balance. I also appreciate the fact that she enjoyed riding the scooter so much she spent hours outside in the fresh air, getting plenty of good ‘ol fashion sunshine and exercise!

The Mini Kickboard Scooter was easy for Pandi to handle and steer and she had no trouble learning how to use the brake to stop. She also loved the full “kickboard” style board which helped her stay on the scooter and feel more confident when riding it.

Oh, and did I mention that these cool scooters come in your choice of three fabulous colors? Pandi’s choice was naturally PINK, but I love the orange and blue versions too! Perfect for a little girl or boy! Check them out:

I can’t say enough wonderful things about this scooter and about Kickboard® USA for bringing this wonderful, sleek, and innovative scooter to the States.

And naturally, I saved the best for last: YOU CAN WIN ONE!
