  • 8 Shares

If you are looking for the perfect gift for an active child, kids scooters are a great idea. Scooters give kids freedom and fun on two wheels before they are old enough to ride a bike. Even older kids love scooters and will use them well into their teen years.

Here are the best kids scooters for sale in 2022:

Scooters are an excellent toy to encourage more outdoor time instead of sitting in front of a computer or TV screen. Just imagine the fun your child is going to have scooting around town, either on the sidewalk or even in a skate park.

Kids and adult scooters come in a few different configurations — three wheels or two wheels, stunt or regular — each meant for different age groups. And, scooters are plenty safe for kids.

The scooters above range from toddler to teenager, and in each description, we list the recommended ages. Scooters are perfect for both boys and girls, and the whole family will love them!

Knee Walkers for Kids

The first question we should get into is what on earth is a knee-scooter? 

Imagine a four-wheeled bike of sorts, only minus the pedals and chain, complete with a shopping basket at the front. 

Now imagine instead of a seat to sit on, there's a knee pad. 

Simply rest one knee on the knee walker and use your other leg to propel yourself along. It's simple and easy to use. 

While this does sound like a lot of fun, knee walkers are designed to alleviate pain from foot, ankle, or lower leg surgery, and aid people who've just had a below the knee amputation. 

For kids, I'd have to recommend the KneeRover range. They're not super expensive, easily fold down, feature adjustable rear brakes, and the comfortable three-inch-thick contoured knee rest works for both legs. 

Best Scooter for 6-Year-Old

Even breaking it down into a very specific niche, I'm still going to have to go with the Micro Kickboard. 

Aside from all the reasons I outline near the top of this list, the wheels are made from high-quality material, which is perfect for both urban and suburban pavements. 

It's important to factor in where your child is going to be using the scooter, but as a general one for all scooters, the Micro Kickboard should work on most surfaces. 

Plus with such a huge color selection to choose from, there really is a Micro Kickboard for every kind of child. 

Motorized Scooters

There are a lot of motorized scooters to choose from. And I mean A LOT, all of varying quality. You'll also need to factor in charge time versus miles per charge. And cost. Oh, and how fast is too fast. 

There's a lot to keep in mind when you're buying a motorized scooter, and the reason I bring all this up is that I've been there, done the research, and previously broken down the Best Electric Scooters for Kids.  

Head on over to that gift guide to see all the best electric scooters compared and reviewed by your resident scooter expert. 

Your kid will love scooting around town on one of these awesome scooters. These are the best kids scooters for all ages in 2018.
