The FWC christmas gift guide is finally UP and running you guys, YAY!
And first up is MICRO scooters!!
Everybody knows Micro! But, please don't let that stop me from telling you all about our own little Micro journey through life.
My kids both got their first Mini Micro scooter at around 2 years old. I just love how the Micro scooters for the littlest has 2 wheels in the front and one in the back, as it gives them such an amazing balance, and makes the scooting experience a little similar to skateboarding, as opposed to the one wheel in front. I have seen little kids get really hurt on the scooters made with one wheel in the front and two in the back. Not the best idea for the minis. Take notes!
Little Mr C would have his attached to the Mountain Buggy pram Miss W was in, and he would go everywhere with me on his scooter. Since I didn't drive, I needed him to be able to go with me for long distances without getting bored and restless, and this was the most amazing discovery for me. I didn't have the connection thingy you can get, I just tied the scooter to the back of the pram, and off we went. Miss W later got her own pink scooter as she kept stealing her brothers scooter, and then he upgraded to a Maxi Micro scooter for bigger kids, which is the one Miss W is using now in this little blogpost.
We have pinked it up a little bit with pink handle grip, pink bell and the smartest little bag that hooks up to the scooter easily, and can be taken off and go with your child everywhere! BEST! This is such an affordable way to make the dude scooter girl friendly. (ok, so Miss W doesn't need things to be pink, but she does need to personalise her stuff for it to be actually hers, and when given a choice, she will go for a pink or rainbow alternatives and this time, we went all out)
The big boys have the coolest Micro Speed + scooters! These scooters will last them forever as they are from ages 7 and up! Mr Lu has a Speed + original and Mr C has a Speed + special edition.
Lu loves doing tricks, but he is mostly in it for the speed and Mr C is still learning how to roll with a 2 wheeled scooter as he has mostly been riding skateboards or used the Micro Mini and Maxi, which is a bit of a different experience all together, but he loves his new scooter and he is getting the hang of it really quickly. I love that this can be their go to whenever they need in the future, it is built so well and the quality is absolutely unbeatable!
You might ask, as you all know we are a skateboarding family, why we have scooters as well, so please let me tell you the 3 main reasons why we definitely need both.
The main reason why I feel the kids need a scooter, is that it gives them the freedom to bring wheels that 1) doesn't make much noise (as opposed to skateboards which can tend to get a bit loud) 2) can be easily packed in the car (as opposed to their BMX bikes) 3) they can just roll into the sunset on their own without an adult. (ok, so the dudes are really good at skating on their own, but Miss W still needs help with her skateboarding and scooting gives her the freedom she craves to go fast on her own!
I have a little # on instagram called #fwcrocksmicroscooters where you can practically see them grow up with their scooters! It's the cutest little walk down memory lane! And, biggest tip, you will love the little videos!!
