Can this be used as a ride on toy for a tall 3 year old? (My son is developmentally in an early walking stage, but is a tall almost 3 year old).

Unless you are certain that the surface he is going to use it on is completely flat; I would not. It will work just fine if the area where he will use it is just completely flat.

My 4 and 7 year old still love to ride on this bike as it moves so easily so I think it should work for your son as a ride on toy.

I think it would be a great tool to aid in early walking. My grandson's 5 year old friend, who is pretty tall, rides on it just fine.

Yes. It would be great for helping developmentally. There is a 44 pound weight limit. It is so fun that it is hard to keep the older children from riding it!

Sure, you just have to be careful and walk with them until they understand their capabilities. It's not a well designed toy. Kids can easily fall off and get injured. I'd honestly recommend a helmet. I push my daughter around, but have my arm around her body to prevent her from falling off.

Probably yes. I gave it as a gift to a one year old and he loves to push it. I would assume my 2 year old could ride it properly.

My little guy is only 40 inches and it is time to move the pedals from the first setting. I haven't gotten around to it yet but I thought I was just going to move them straight to the 3rd(last) now. Your son may still be able to ride it now, but the time he would have with the toy wouldn't be all that much. As much as we love the car, it may not be a good value for the money for someone so tall. I will agree with Melissa's response that the pedals are hard for a child that is too young. At 3.5 years

Probably cannot reach the pedals unless he is exceptionally tall. My 3 yr old just started to be able to ride and she is about 37.5 in tall

Yes for sure, our son is 5 and tall for his age and he rides on stand all the time. Steering takes a little more effort but still easy to push and turn. Yes, is should fit (has in ours) but bit doesn't fold down compactly so takes up room.

My little guy is 18 months and about 30lbs. It is perfect for him. I also have older kiddos that have stood on it and it holds up well...but they are not supposed to be on it. When I say older I mean age 7 and 10!!! My personal feeling is that this is a good slide until age 3...possibly 4 depending on size. Then I agree with the previous comment about them being too tall. Weight wise though I would say 40-45 lbs. hope this helps answer your question.

I would think 4 feet and under - leg length may be a issue for under 3 feet tall - weight limit?? Don't know that - my grandson is small for age but is 11 and still rides his

I think this would work well for a three year old. My grandson is just 2 and his legs don't reach the pedals yet. He loves it anyway.

My son is only 13 months so he can't ride on top of the toy and scoot himself yet. Some other kids have played with it though and I haven't noticed that happening.

Yes. I bought this for my son when he was just starting to show interest in walking, and he was good with it. With some time, he was able to "steer" so he wouldn't get stuck. He has had it for a couple months and still pushes it and rides it.

Yes you can. Half my house is carpeted. I got this for my 1 year old for his birthday. He pushes himself all over the house on it. It is small compared to some other ride on toys. I wouldn't recommend it for kids older than 3 or older. Hope this helps!

My 3.10 year old is 40" tall and she is the perfect height for this scooter, and I anticipate her being able to use it for a few more years. I have no doubt a 38" tall child can use this scooter.

I think a 3 year old would be too old for this toy. I gave it to my 9 month old nephew and he loved it. Now that he is 18 months old and walking, he hardly plays with it, too many things to get into and explore I guess. He might go back to playing with it. I would not give this to a 3 year old.

My son was able to play in his until well into his mid 20lbs and he is a big fellow too for his age. He pretty much used it until he started walking at 9 months.

You could, but I will not recommend it. The issue with older kids is that the seat end up being too low and the leg room is small. My son is a little over 3 and he takes small steps to push himself and I think he will like to go faster (take bigger steps). But, he loves it.

My three year old is tall also and he still rides in it all the time without issue. He would need to ride in the front seat though.

He might be for this item. My 2.5 yr is close to the height and we got this for him last year when he was just under 32". My son still plays with this even though he no longer uses the sides to rest his feet. He enjoys the music and horse sound it makes when he rides. I prefer this size for now since I know he won't "fall" off it like the taller horse.
