Kids Scooter Helmets

Protect Your Child with Kids Scooter Helmets

The most crucial protective gear for a child riding their scooter is a kid’s scooter helmet. Scooter helmets are essential for children of any age and skill level, from young ones beginning on a 3-wheeled scooter to those performing tricks at the skatepark. Parents often wonder if helmets are necessary for toddlers on scooters, and the answer is undoubtedly yes, since these little ones are still mastering their balance.

All helmets for kids' scooters found in this category comply with the EN 1078 standard. This European safety regulation ensures they are safe for activities like scootering, skating, and cycling.

Choose a Scooter Helmet Over a Bike Helmet

Scooter helmets for children are constructed differently from bicycle helmets, making them noticeably safer for scootering. The back of a kid’s scooter helmet extends all the way down to the neck, ensuring full coverage. This contrasts with bike helmets, which typically stop higher on the head. The design of scooter helmets is meant to offer protection when children fall backward, a common occurrence in scootering compared to cycling.

Another feature of kids' scooter helmets is their multi-impact resistance. These helmets maintain their structure through several impacts, whereas bike helmets usually need to be replaced after a significant hit.

Ensuring a child’s scooter helmet fits properly is critical and should top the list of scooter safety considerations. Visit our How to Wear Your Helmet Guide for further tips.
