One way of avoiding constant exposure to technology (iPads, TV, and laptops) and keeping kids active is by buying them scooter. For those beyond two years old, it’s impossible for them not to love this.

Whether it’s cruising around the house or the neighborhood, it spells FUN all over. However, you have to be wary of purchasing for younger kids because they may not be fully equipped to handle this gear.

You need to consider their sense of balance and confidence. They MAY have all the skills necessary to ride the scooter, but they could still be confused what to do with it.

But if you do it right, riding will be their way of exercising while learning about coordination and having fun in the process.

You hit multiple birds with one stone. So the question remains: what’s the best scooter for 3-year-old? I specifically mentioned this age because, by the time he’s three, he has developed enough skills to handle toys like this.

Although you may need to tend to scraped knees, it’s a safe time to start.
