We are simply addicted to our Mini Kick Scooters around here. I was lucky enough to write a review of KickboardUSA's products for Babble.com and we've been hooked ever since.Now that summer is here, my daughter and all her pals (boys and girls) use their Micro Scooters each and every day. These ride --on toys are easy to master (I've seen plenty of two year olds on them), sturdy and a great way to get your kids moving this summer.
The Mini Micro Scooter ($75.98) is the model for beginners. These first wheels were designed for kids ages 2-5. Unlike two-wheeled scooters, these are easier to balance and to store (they don't flop over). The handle bar is a pleasure to grip and steering is mastered with simple weight distribution. The Mini’s deck is low to the ground and very stable. I am impressed with the fluid movement and "quiet"ride--must be the Italian-made Polyurethane wheels. My daughter and her friends love meeting up for playdates on these speedy scooters.
When your kids get a little older they will be ready for hip, new, Maxi Scooter
($149.99). This award-winning scooter is designed specifically for kids 6-10. The Swiss-design steering mechanism is meant to simulate surfing--how cool is that. The three-wheel design is super stable and a breeze to master.Momtrends has an awesome giveaway to keep your kids busy this summer. We are going to give away one Mini and one Maxi scooter--two winners total. To enter head over to the Kickboardusa.com site. Watch the Mini/Maxi video and then come back to Momtrends and leave a comment about why you need one of these scooters.

My daughter totally needs a Mini scooter. There are only boys in our neighborhood and they are all 2-5 years older than her but she just loves playing with them. Unfortunately, now that summer is here they are all on their bikes and scooters. It would be great for her to have her own scooter so she can ride with them instead of having to chase them. Thanks!! :)
i need one of these because my younger son wants to be like his older brother who has a 2-wheeled scooter

I love the Kickboard USA Scooter.. wow the mini would be great for my little daycare kiddos, we now live near the park it would be great fun.. The Maxi.. wouldn't my 7 year old niece love that.. so would her 10 year old brother. They could even ride them on the bike path.
I also checked out the G-bike.. ok.. my little Daycare kiddos would be in love with that bike.. it is great.
Thanks for the intro to this site and also for the chance at the giveaway.

My son would loved the mini version.
My poor son outgrew his scooter a couple of years ago and we just haven’t gotten around to getting him another one (no real excuse) so we need this so we don’t have to hear him whine anymore about “not having one when everyone else does.”
Thanks for the great giveaway!

My daughter needs another object on which to risk her life (or at least her skin!)
My daughter would really like this -- she took a fall off her bike and now is hesitant to ride it much -- this looks like it would be much easier for her to balance and get about on and have fun!

hey its so beautiful pictures. i want to get one of them for my child. really nice posting.
Those scooters are amazing! My 3 year old son was jealous of his cousin's scooters but I haven't been ready for that jump w/ the two wheel scooters (something about him already having had three sets of stitches w/out a scooter). This would be perfect for him! Thanks for the chance.

My son has a scooter, but my daughter (who's younger), doesn't have one yet - this looks awesome!
Watching the video made me realize how much both of my kids would love these! My daughter would adore the Mini (she's jealous of her brother's 2 wheel scooter) and my son would love the steering action of the Maxi!

I'd love to win this scooter for my son. We have a little learner bike (no pedals) for him but his legs are too short! So frustrating. This would be a great alternative that he can use now.

I would love to win this for my grandson. Someone came up to our house a couple months ago and walked off with his little scooter. He was so upset. This would for sure put a smile on his face. Thank you!

It seems like my child keeps taking everyone elses in the playground...I can't afford to buy one & he seems obsessed with it. He's adorable, so everyone just tolerates it...And they are amazed to see his proficiency and speed, given that he is under two years old...We'd definitely appreciate a scooter like this!
My child ends up borrowing everyone else's scooter in the playground...And because he's adorable they tolerate. We can't afford to purchase one...so we'd really appreciate winning it! Plus - because my child is under two years old people are amazed by his proficiency and speed on the Micro-mini --- great advertising!
My son would absolutely LOVE the maxi scooter! He is so into scooters...but I still can't get him to want to ride a bike!

Very interesting, it looks so easy. I would love to win the Maxi because my husband and his brother owe our niece a new scooter. They decided that it would be a great idea to have scooter races down a big grassy hill at her house and after multiple races that ended in each of them falling off the scooter and tumbling down the rest of the hill, they broker her scooter. The Mini would be nice to have around our house for when the younger nieces and nephews come to visit (my daughter is just a little small for it still)

My son is still too little to ride a bike, and I think this scooter would be great, and safe, for him to play with!

My daughter has been motor driven practically since birth and is always on the move. Our neighbors have a scooter and she really wants one. I think the mini would be great for her, she's three.

My 2 kids 6 and 3 fight obver the same scooter all the time. An updated version for either age would be great. Wouild love to try one out. They loook very cool and if Momtrends says they are good, I trust.
I would love one of these because they are easier for smaller kids to learn on! Very cute.

My son NEEDS one of these (well, "need" is a strong word... but he'd really, really enjoy one of these) because it would help him get rid of all of his extra energy outdoors. I'm happy that it's designed for kids as young as 2 because I know he'd love it!

We need one these Kickboard Scooters because my two year old LOVES to go outside more than anything else, but we really don't have any 'outside toys' that keep him entertained and I always feel like he is constantly getting into things that he shouldn't, instead of playing constructively. The Mini Micro scooter is perfect for him. This is such a wonderful development tool for coordination and balance that I would love to see him win. It would also help expend some of that 2 yr old energy & THAT is a huge thing for mom!!!!!
