YBike Glider Review and Giveaway

Ybike

      When I was a child we spent every hour of light we had outdoors, usually riding bikes.  I am always looking for ways to get my kids out and staying active.  I had no idea how popular scooters had become though since then.  Dane had a blast his first time at a birthday party playing on a friends scooter.  Of course we bought him one for Christmas last year.  Little did I know I should have gotten two so Declan could have his own.  The only problem is he isn't quite ready for a big boy scooter or even big boy bikes.


        I was super pumped when I first heard about YBike and the products they make for children!  "All YBike products have been engineered with safety in mind and designed to help develop balance, co-ordination and self confidence in young kids."

        So many times you find the old school versions of a bike, tricycle, or scooter.  Sure they have modern designs but they are the same old concept.  Not YBike!  They realize that children learn differently.  They need to build a certain level of self confidence in order to properly use these everyday toys.  What I really love is that I feel like this is a company that knows me and my needs.  I have a little one who wants to do everything his big brother does.  Regardless of if he can or can't, he's going to do it!

        Because we are in what seems a scooter phase, we picked the YBike Glider.  This is a scooter designed for children aged 2-5 with two front wheels to help with balance.  Declan can learn to steer correctly by leaning the direction he wants to go instead of having to coordinate pushing and turning a handle bar.  He can also stop easily by putting his foot on the back wheel cover which works as a break.  I wish I could truly show the expression on his face when he first tried it as I missed it in photograph.  He can now follow around Dane whether its outside or through the house without me quite as worried about his safety!

Cost:  $79.99 YBike Glider
Available to purchase:  YBike
Recommendation: These are amazing toys!  I love the ideas that they have come up with and as I said in the review I feel like they made this specifically for my family.  They are a little expensive for a 2 year old but honestly worth the purchase when you look at safety and how it works with them and not against their size.  The bikes are the same which I feel like we will be looking into these for Christmas this year!

    Would love to try the YBike Extreme

    I actually love your blog, it's my first time here, I LOVE the shamrocks - My blog is Irish Italian Blessings so I love all things Irish. I entered a few other giveaways, STep 2 Kitchen which is fancier than my actual kitchen, and the NEto Robotic Vaccuum.
