Choosing an Electric Scooter for Kids

A kids electric scooter can be a fun way for younger riders to build balance and confidence. The right choice depends on the child's age, height and weight, where they will ride and how much supervision is available. Always follow the manufacturer's age, weight and height guidance, supervise children while riding and make sure they wear a properly fitted helmet. Rules for riding e-scooters on roads, paths and footpaths differ between Australian states and territories and can change, so check the current rules where you live and ride.
