get your kids moving. It is exciting, and that excitement lasts. It is durable, and it
is not easy to break. Other items such as an iPad or iPhone can be broken.

about breaking an electric scooter if dropped.
• Sneak Peek
o Electric scooters give your kids a sneak peek into adult transportation. They
allow children to imagine themselves as adults with more freedom. It is not the
real thing, but it is close enough to keep them busy. They can use it anywhere,
and it is safe to travel. So, there are endless possibilities for how your kids can
use them.

outside without the kids feeling like they are exercising. It still encourages
outside activity and exercise without forcing the issue. Children’s obesity rates
are the highest they have ever been, so anything which slows this process is a
win for children’s health.
