E-scooters for kids: The 5 best e-scooters for kids
Are you looking for an e-scooter for children? We present five recommended models.
Find the right e-scooter for the child
E-scooters for children have slightly different requirements than scooters for adults. E-scooters are less powerful for the little ones and also do not reach such high speeds. You should consider the following three things when buying:
- Child size: Many e-scooters for children have a maximum rider weight of around 55 kilograms. This is especially important if the child is still carrying a heavy backpack, for example.
- Age of the child: In Germany, e-scooters may only be used on the road from the age of 14. Less powerful models for children under the age of 14 may only be driven on private property. E-scooters should generally only be used by children aged 8 and over. For younger children, non-electric scooters are better suited.
- Planned routes: When choosing an e-scooter, it is also important to know which routes the child should cover with the device. An e-scooter for the way to school, for example, should last longer than a vehicle for the short fun lap around the block.
General safety tips for children with e-scooters
- Always wear a helmet
- Attach additional items such as a bell or light to the e-scooter
- Do not let children ride the scooter in pairs
- Note the legal situation in Germany
- Use hand signals
- Do not carry excessive luggage
- Take a test drive
