Walking bikes are a great way for kids to perceive their environment in a whole new way and explore it. With them, they can experience their first adventures.

It is also exciting for you as a parent to watch your child learn to ride a bike while playing. It’s perfectly normal if they don’t succeed the first time. The important thing is that your child does not lose motivation and enjoys learning.

Checklist for Children’s Wheels

Age
  • Running bikes are suitable for children from about 1 year old. At this age, children want to discover the world full of curiosity.
Size of the Wheel
  • When buying a running wheel, size plays an important role. Your child should be able to touch the ground with his feet without any problems. Otherwise, it can quickly happen that your child falls down and hurts himself. For children from 1.5 years, you should buy a wheel with 10 inches.
Material
  • Especially in the first attempts with the wheel, your child must first learn to keep the balance. A wooden wheel is therefore super for the beginning.
Wide Tires
  • Wide tires also help your child with balance. Your child thus experiences first successes in cycling, since wide tires provide a better and safer driving experience.
