Kids Scooter Helmets
Kids Scooter Helmets Ensure Your Child's Safety
The most crucial protective gear your child should have while scootering is a kid’s scooter helmet. From youngsters just starting out on a three-wheeled scooter to those doing tricks at the skatepark, it's essential for children of all ages and skill levels to wear a helmet. Parents frequently ask if toddlers require helmets for scooters, and the answer is definitely yes, as these young ones are still honing their balance skills.
All the kid's scooter helmets in this section hold EN 1078 certificates, a European safety standard that verifies their safety for scootering, skating, and cycling.
Opt for A Scooter Helmet, Not a Bike Helmet
Children’s scooter helmets differ from bicycle helmets in a few key aspects, making them safer for scootering. The design of kid’s scooter helmets includes full coverage of the back of the head down to the neck. In contrast, bicycle helmets typically stop higher up on the head. This design feature is intended to protect youngsters in the event of a backward fall, which is more common in scootering compared to cycling.
Another feature of kid’s scooter helmets is their multi-impact resistance. The durable material maintains its form through several falls or impacts, unlike bicycle helmets, which often need replacing after a significant impact.
When considering scooter protection, a child’s scooter helmet should be a top priority, and ensuring the right fit is critical. For additional guidance, refer to our How to Wear Your Helmet Guide.
