I see all these children playing on there scooters and sometimes I find myself thinking that I wished I could have one as they look so much fun. So when I was given the opportunity to review an Adult and Child scooter, One for me or hubby and one for my 5 year old from Micro-Scooters I literally jumped at the chance as it means myself and my daughter can scoot up to the park or where ever else we want to go.

When the scooters came I was actually surprised at how small the boxes were as I was expecting them to be bigger.

My daughter received a purple Maxi Micro Scooter T-Bar which she was really pleased with as it is her favourite colour at the moment.

This scooter is aimed for 6 – 12 year olds my daughter is on the bigger side though so this was perfect plus you can move the height of the handle bars up and down so we could get them to the correct height for her.

I liked the deck as it is wider than the normal scooters so it is easier for her to stay on it.

The scooter has 3 wheels for stability and I really liked the fact that the way she controlled the steering of the scooter was by leaning either left or right but it is never a sharp steer it is really smooth.

I did think she would struggle with this as she was used to turning the handles to steer on her other scooter but she found this really easy to do and it helps her with her balancing skills too.

There is also a back foot brake that is quite wide making it easier for children so stop.

The scooter comes apart too. Just one click underneath and you can detach the handle bars from the base so it fits into a small space in the car which is great when your car is filled to the brim when you are going on holiday.

Here is my daughter enjoying scooting up and down the garden path.

She absolutely loves this scooter and goes on it at every opportunity she can, Even scooting around the house on it.

I received an Aluminium scooter called Micro Sprite Scooter in Silver.

It is sleek and stylish with adjustable height for the handle bars again so they can be the correct height for the person using it.

The Micro Sprite Scooter is suitable from age 5 to Adult which means not only can myself and my husband use it so can our teenager daughter or even my 5 year old daughter.

The folding mechanism is really simple just flipping up a bar and a push of a button and it folds up, the handlebars also come out and can be folded too.

The scooter folds up to a small size and again fantastic for taking on holiday as it will not take up much space at all.

If you are a mum who uses a pushchair and has an older child with a Micro Sprite scooter it would be easy to fold and put in the bottom of the pushchair.

One thing I thought was a nifty idea was the little stand on the side of the scooter.
Usually you see children big and small just chucking their scooters down as they don’t stand up on their own. This one does with just this little stand. Brilliant idea!

The back brake is easy to use too.

We have been out and about on the scooters and riding the Micro Sprite scooter I found that it glided with ease and was so smooth and it looks smart too. It is a great way to get outdoors with the children. I actually love it.

There are also many accessories you can buy for both scooters, for example, lights (front and rear), bags, bottle holders, stickers. Some that could easily be brought from children’s pocket money.

I will definitely be having a good look at Micro-Scooters website to see what accessories we will be having next.
