When I see tots adeptly riding skate boards, bikes and razor scooters, I just feel sorry for my daughter who is uncoordinated and not athletic by any measure. She can’t even jump! Not an inch off the ground even when she tries really really hard! My husband bought her a bike and I do not go riding with them because my heart and nerves won’t be able to handle her falls. So when she wanted to try the Ezy Roller, I vocally encouraged her but deep down I was like, “Yeah, good luck”. To my disbelief and joy, she got on this and rode around like a total pro! It is a boost to her self esteem to say the least but she was having so much fun scooting around and steering with zero effort. It uses the momentum of the wheels or something, but it is designed to move with very little exertion by simply toggling the foot pedal back and forth which moves the front wheel. You steer with the handles on either side. Don’t let this picture scare you, it does not go very fast and I would not recommend this on an incline. You need a flat surface because the momentum is not enough to take hills and there will be a risk of rolling back. We take this to the park and now everyone can relax and have fun, especially mom =) Great for any age as long as you can reach the front pedals, my daughter is 38″ and just reaches. At Red EzyRoller
