Please

dd1 will be 5 in september and we ar e getting her a 2 wheel one (shes had a 3 wheel one for about 18months but dd2 loves it and they squabble hence dd1 getting a new one and dd2 inheriting the old one) getting it form argos as its £9.99 but in the 2 for £15 promotion so will get something else to go with it)

DS2 just turned 5 and we got the 3 wheeled microscooter for him.

His balance is quite bad, he couldn't get on with one of the cheaper 3 wheel scooters and as for a 2 wheel scooter, no chance. He gets on great with the micro scooter though, he can balance much better and they go quite fast.

DS1 on the other hand got on fine with a cheaper scooter and now races along on 2 wheels, has done since he was 5 (he's 6.9 now).

Thanks for all your help

Ds is 6 and loved his 3 wheel micro scooter. Now too small, have tried bog-standard 2 wheelers and he really doesn't like them. So have just ordered the maxi-micro, whch is much more grown-up looking but still has 3 wheels.

The maxi microscooter is the one we bought too Posey. It was very expensive but I figured that DS2 will be able to use it for the next few years.

The 3 wheeled ones have some new bright colours coming out soon, so you might find that the original ones get reduced
