My daughter is 20 months, and is quite small (like &lt;10 percentile) would you recommend this or just get a trike right away?

I have a 20 mo grandson......he loves it.......I wouldn't go for a trike yet...let them get their feet going.....the 3 yr old grandson rode it, just the right size...now he's 4 and his legs are too long!.....get it, you won't regret it.

I think it would work great. my grandson is now 3 and rides the trike almost everyday. Mom and dad love the handle, it works great on longer bike rides...if he poops out, they just push. good luck. carol

Personally, I wouldn't recommend it, but to each their own. Just as Triplethreat suggested, it is about the ability to understand...occasionally I have to tell my 3 year old (that is 32 lbs) to be still. If she gets into the ride and starts to lean, it throws off my balance and can be quite dangerous going around turns (especially passing others on the trails.) Also, keep in mind other factors, such as things being kicked, or splashed up in their face, and them not being able to tell you. Just my opinion, but I would get an inclosed one until your kiddo is a bit older.

I don't know, but this trike is VERY heavy & a CHALLENGE to ride. If she doesn't exercise regularly consider something else. good luck!

This trike is very solid, good quality, although my 22 m is still not pedaling by himself, so we push him till he learns. I think with light weight trikes you have a risk to turn over, losing the balance; this model is very stable and pedals are not too hard to push, the child just needs to be ready.

Probably yes, if she is of normal size. We got one for our not-quite-two grandson so he could be out in the driveway with his three year old twin brothers on their trikes and it was just right for size.

If he has already mastered a tricycle and big wheel-type vehicles, he can probably handle the steering - especially in the slow gear. But it's pretty big and bulky, so if he's on the small side, you may want to wait til the 3rd birthday. It's big enough that even older kids can drive it. (my 10 year old can still squeeze in and drive it around). So you'll have it a long time.

Yes absolutely! I just purchased this bike for my three year old this past Christmas. She just turned three in January and it is the perfect fit and will easily work until she moves up to a regular two wheel bike. FYI my daughter is also very tall. The overall quality of the bike and the workmanship is well worth the price. It is very sturdy, steers well and has awesome tires! You won't find another bike like this!!

No. This trike is bigger than it looks plus it has two seat positions for when you need them. My 4 year old can still easily ride his if he so chooses.

I think you should be fine unless your son has very short legs. I have this bike and the mini glider. The mini glider is more appropriate for a 2-3 year old.

Yes, it is a very nice trike... It was good for my son at 4 but prop better for a 3 year old

Depending on her height, I would go for a 12" (John Deere also makes a 12" version of this bike). We are getting one for our 2 yo daughter who is very tiny but, she rides her brother's (3.5 yo) 12" bike better than our tricycles. Remember that the seat adjusts...our son still has another year or more left in his 12". Buying "up size" may be OK for coats but, getting a bike that's too big is just a recipe for frustration, possible injury, and maybe a trip back to the store or post office to return a too big bike.

Most likely you will be able to ride it, but it may not be comfortable. If you are just learning, the small size may make learning more difficult. I think you would be better off buying a 20 in wheel.

I have a small three year old that has trouble reaching the pedals. It really is a nice, solid, big tricycle that they can ride for ever!

I bought this for my granddaughter. It is a great trike. Very sturdy and doesn't tip over. I highly recommend.

In my opinion this would probably be better since there are no pedals to 'reach' --- my grandson usually opts for this one (we recently got him the trike) but he doesn't seem to like to work the pedals. Good luck I hope this helps.

Absolutely this tricycle would be awesome. I made this selection for my then 3yr grandson for his birthday. Although he has since move on to a bike with training wheels...he still uses this trike also. It looks sharp and has all the bells and whistles. Excellent choice.
