- Your child can use a slide car as soon as he or she can sit independently and walk safely.
- It is important that your child’s feet touch the ground when sitting on it, so that your child can push off from it when driving.
- Slide car models come in many different shapes and designs.
- One of the most popular and well-known slide-car is the classic Bobby Car from BIG, which is available in different colors for boys and girls and scores with a high load capacity.
- However, car manufacturers such as Audi or Mercedes have also entered the slide car business. These shine with an authentic design and precise details that are based on the original cars.
- For very imaginative games, the slide car is available as a tractor or fire engine model as well as with monster design.
- A slide car should have hard plastic tires , which can withstand high loads and are suitable for outdoor use. Some models have tires that can be turned 360°, allowing effortless changes of direction.
- Stepless Ackerman steering provides a smaller turning circle.
- Many newfangled models also come with a wide range of accessories, such as stickers with realistic designs for the appropriate visual impression, while light shows and sound almost turn the slide car into a real car.
- Also practical are secret compartments that can be opened when the slide car is opened, where everyday utensils such as drinks or tissues can be stowed.
- The slide-car should be selected according to the size of your child so that he can support himself with his feet on the ground.
- A relief on the seat of the slide car ensures that your child does not slip while playing.
- Make sure that the slide car of your choice meets the requirements of TÜV and EPH and is free of harmful substances.
- However, the most important role is played by you as a parent. Always keep an eye on your little ones so that you can intervene in time if something happens. Many slide cars have a special handle for this purpose, with which you can nudge your child or even slow him down.

Here, no exact age can be determined. The slide car is usable when the child has learned to walk and the feet reach the ground. Some can drive it already with 10 months, others only with 1,5 years.
The older the children get, the faster they drive the Bobbycar. Since it does not have a brake, most children use their feet to stop. So basically, shoe pads or older shoes are recommended.
