My grandson just turned 8 and its plenty big, he is average size for his age

Yes, but it is not very tall. I bought it for my 14 year old and he has size 9 feet and both feet don't fit on the scooter at the same time. Also the stick with the handles is not very tall. He is 5'9" and he has to bend over to hold the handle bars.

Kids propel themselves. I bought one of these for my 9 year old grandson and ended up purchasing two more...one for an 8 year and one for a 6 year old. They really enjoyed riding and like the fact I could order in girl/boy colors or team colors.

I purchased this one for my 9 year old but I'm sure it would be fine for a 12 year old. I bought a different one for my 11 year old daughter though. Their very popular and they love to ride their friends.

I bought it for my 8 year old grand daughter. In 70 years old. 5`3" tall and 130 lbs. We both have fun riding it.

No. A 9 year old could assist an adult with construction, and operation, but there are no safeguards. Once built, with a motor spinning a tool, this kit has the potential to cause significant injury.

I am 37 years old and I get a kick out of riding it. And all our neighbor kids ages 5-12 think it's fun too. My girls, 3 & 4 yrs old aren't quite into it, maybe too young? I think for the price it's worth it. I do think that the older/bigger/heavier the person the slower the car moves though.

I have 2 of the trikes and my 9 year old daughter loves them. I have another daugther that just turned 6, she is able to ride one but has some difficulty. I see no reason why your 8 your old, if he is bigger would have any problem.

I started riding with my son in it when he was 1 year old and up to when he was 4 years old and he surpassed the 40lb weight limit and out grew it. I'd have no problem riding a child under 1 yrs in it either

My son bought one when he was 5 and it is small for him but he loves it and rides it all the time. My daughters that are 10,12 and 14 can all still get on it and ride around and they enjoy it also even though their legs are too long. Hope that helps.

No, the handle bar raises. I think the weight limit is the biggest concern. We also have the monster scooter they make for us to ride with our kids. I would think your 9 yo would do great with this one if she is only 62lbs!

My son is 11 years old and it is small for him. Some people likes to ride smalls

It's a small little bike designed for a toddler. That being said, my 7 and 9 yr olds ride around on it and have just as much fun! (My kids are on the smaller side) You might get it and think it's much too small but find that it can just as easily be played with. Hope that helps!

I think a 9 year old could do it. I bought it for a 6 year old - he and his Mom did it -- but he did much of it himself.Frank

My 4 year old can ride it, but the weight limit is 120 I believe so... My 7 and 9 year old love it too

Possibly. My daughter is 5 and its perfect for her. I believe it may be a little small for a 9 year old.

Yes. Our grandchildren, who received it, are ages 11, 9 and 7 and have not had any issues using it safely. Good height when child is seated as well.

If the seat and handlebars are lowered, there should be no problem. And keep in mind that a 4'8" 9-year-old will be steadily growing, so you'll be adjusting things upward periodically!
