My 6 year old is desperate for a skateboard. I'm a bit reluctant, I'm fairly concerned about injuries and wonder if she's a little too young for one. She's not exactly the most physically able child, struggles with climbing mainly. Are there even skateboards out there that she would be able to manage? There doesn't seem to be much of a size difference in adult and smaller boards. If you have a similar aged child what skateboard do they have and how old were they when they first used it? Neither dp nor I have ever had one so are quite ignorant on the matter.
Yabu- a skateboard is perfectly ok for a 6 year old.
Yanbu- skateboards are far too dangerous/wait until she is older.
