Kickboard USA is gearing up for October when we will once again donate 10% of profits from sales of all things mini and pink, to promote cancer awareness with Susan G. Komen (last year it was the National Cancer Roundation).
The Mini is an award winner and we thought, in the interest of raising money, it might be a good time to review what's good about the Mini Kick Scooter.
In 2011, the 3-wheeled Mini Kick Scooter 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 and fun, 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 stability as they gently curve from right to left. The lean-and-steer adds an element of fun and is great for learning balance and coordination.
The polyurethane wheels also create a wonderfully smooth glide — and a quiet ride, a joy for both parents and children alike.
The rear 'spoon' brake provides additional control, adding to the safety and to the fun.
The mini kickboard is low-to-the-ground and large enough for two feet, making it easy for riders to hop on and off or to switch from pushing to simply enjoying the ride.
Its light weight makes it easy for parents or kids to pick up and carry when necessary.
Learning to ride the mini kick is easy for even the youngest kids (ages 2 and 3), who typically start to ride the mini in straight line, learning quickly, almost intuitively, to gently lean, in order to steer. The older kids (ages 4 and 5) become very proficient, curving right and left as they 'surf' the sidewalk.
The Mini can be ridden inside while learning (or waiting for Spring) because the Polyurethane wheels won't leave black marks on the floor.
The Mini's Italian-made wheels provide an incredibly smooth, quiet ride, a joy for parents and children alike.
The mini's light weight (only 3.3 lbs), makes it easy for young kids to control and maneuver and convenient for parents to pick up and carry when need be.
Parents love the Mini Kick because children love to ride it daily, year after year and the modular construction means that all parts are replaceable, so it can last, virtually forever.
The pink Mini Kick scooter makes scooting fun for young children as well as helping to develop their balance, coordination and motor skills.
