Riding a scooter is a great way for kids to stay active - (Kat Storr/The Independent)

Once they’ve mastered walking, many little ones are keen to get moving on wheels, whether it’s one of the best scooters or bikes. With scooters for children available for those as young as 18 months old, it’s easy to see why they’re such a popular choice for families. As well as being fun, scooting can help build balance, coordination and confidence while making getting from A to B a little more exciting.

From the school run to trips to the park, the best kids’ scooter can quickly become part of the daily routine. But don’t forget to include a helmet, as falls are part of learning to scoot, bike, and skateboard.
