Kickboard USA is the official distributor for Micro-Moblity, Switzerland, makers of the Mini Kick for kids ages 2-5, the Maxi Kick for kids ages 5-10, and a full line of quality scooters for teens and adults.The Mini Kick is the quality choice in children's scooters, representing the best in sports technology. The Mini has won several awards - in 2011 the Mini was awarded the Parent's Choice Approved Seal and in 2009 it won the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold and Platinum Award Seals for Best Toy. The Mini also was named 'Best Pre-School Scooter' by Toy Report, 'Best Outdoor Toy' by Learning Express Stores and was featured on the NBC Today Show as part of its 'Best Toys for Summer' series.What makes the Mini unique is its quality construction and 'lean-and-steer' design, which allows children to use their body weight to control the steering, giving them the feeling of 'surfing' the sidewalk, as they curve from right to left, almost like a skateboard. The lean-and-steer adds an element of stability and fun, and is great for learning balance and coordination.The Mini's Italian-made wheels provide an incredibly smooth, quiet ride, a joy for parents and children alike. Its 3 wheels make it easy for even the youngest kids to ride. The youngest kids (ages 2 and 3) will normally start by riding in a straight line but learn quite quickly, almost intuitively, to gently lean, in order to steer. The older kids (ages 4 and 5) become very proficient at curving right and left as they 'surf' the sidewalk. The spoon brake adds to the safety and to the fun. The Mini can be ridden inside while learning as the PU wheels won't leave black marks on the floor.The mini's light weight (only 3.3 lbs), makes it easy for young kids to handle and for parents to pick up and carry when need be.Parents love the Mini Kick because children can ride it year after year and its modular construction means all parts are replaceable, so it can last, virtually forever.
