could my 2.5 year old ride this ok? I have both a 2.5 and a 4.5 year old. Trying to decide if I should buy one or two so they won't fight every day

Yes, I think your 2.5 year could pick up the movement of it quite easily. It may take a few times of being on it, but they will get it. It also can be moved with their feet. I think having 2 cars would be better as all kids are interested in riding it (even teens!).

I highly recommend two of them, if you have two kids. My daughter was 18 months when she started riding one. I got two so I could ride with her. Sometimes we ride on one together. Lots of fun, great little car! She used her feet to push off at first, but after a little riding, she used the steering wheel to wiggle and move. Have fun!

Yes, mine were 3.5 and 1.5 when I bought and are now 4 and 2. My 4 year old can walk or ride when he gets tired. We have a side by side jogging stroller too, and this sit and stand is much easier to take into the mall or stores.

I got this when my son was 5 years old and did fine, he's now 9 and is close to your girls height and weight. WEAR a helmet because it is pretty fast. That was the only thing that scared me. 4 years later he still rides it and we've only had to replace a tire due to a neighborhood kid being mean and got a newer battery after 2 years into owning it.

I bought this for my granddaughters second birthday. She was all exited about it. This bike is build so solid that it was still a little bit to heavy for a 2 year old girl to balance.. She wanted to coast right away and tipped over a few times. So she lost interest. But now that her 3. birthday is coming around, she is asking more and more to ride her bike. I think 3 years old would be a good age to start. As someone else already said it is a balance bike, to teach balance, the hardest part of learning to bike . The switch to a regular bike with pedals, but without training wheels, is then easy. I bought this for my granddaughters second birthday. She was all exited about it.

We have had a few 2 and 3 year olds on it no problems. I would imagine it would be ok for a couple more years

Hi therei bougth this bike last year when my son was 4 yo, and the truth is i think i better buy a bigger bike instead this one. It was just perfect for my 4 yo but you know how fast the kids grow so he just ride it for a couple months, and now i need to buy a bigger. So, the answer for your q: this bike is too little for a 5 yo. I hope this help you. Have a good day and a great shopping expirience.

My son is 2 1/2 and rides like a pro. My neighbors child is just 2 and rides better than my son.

We bought two of these for our 2 1/2 year old twin boys for Christmas, and they love them. They are bigger than they look, and they go fast (I have to run to keep up with them). Unless your boy is tall for his age, I would recommend getting a smaller one or holding off 6 months or so for this big of a quad. My boys started riding smaller quads at 1 1/2 years old so they were used to them and ready for this size. Good luck!

It isn't enough for two. Our little boy loves it though! So does dad! One thing though, when it moves it goes full speed right away and kind of scares our boy with the jerky states. Once he's moving along though he really likes it. He likes playing in it when he's not riding in it too. All in all it is great!! It does have two speed settings and we are still on the slow one.

I would say no, I have a 4 year old and a 2 year old. My 4 year old LOVES this tractor and understands how to use it and steer it. My 2 year old has figured out how to make it go but doesn't understand how to steer it which can make this toy dangerous to himself and others. I would say 3 and up is best as they understand so much more at that age. Hope that helps.

Hello, we bought this for our 2 year old who is approx. 27lbs. It fits him pretty good, he still has plenty of room to grow in it. As for a 5 year old...it depends on how big the child is I think. How tall they are etc..A lot of the ride on toys say they are up to age of 6 but it is really hard to say because every child is different in size.. My son is 34 inches tall and touches the pedal already but has plenty of more room in for the next few years before he will be too big for it. A 5 yr old may only get to ride it for a year before they are too big. I hope this helps. As for the product itself though, it exceeded our expectations on quality and was well worth every penny!

We bought ours for 2 and 4 and they were perfect for them to enjoy. 5 and 4 are ok--they main thing ours did was jump and sit on them. Age 5 will probably want to jump also and need to watch closely that seams don't break.

Yes your 5 year old can handle it. 10-12MPH. We bought them for the kids but we adults ride them around our property daily. We have 4 and you can't go wrong.

I think that it will be too small for a tall 5 year old. It moves pretty slow. (geared more for the smaller/younger girls). My little girl is 2, and she is not completely satisfied with the speed. Especially when she sees her older brother on his faster ride.

I think it would be great. Our 5 yo is shorter than average, and it's a bit big for her. She manages to ride it, but I think it will serve her to age 7 at least

I think this quad is a little big for a 2 year old. I bought it for my son for his 4th birthday, and it was great. My daughter (now 3) still cannot ride it because it's too big for her. They do make smaller 6v style quads that are more appropriate for a 2yo.

Hi K. Carone, Ummm, it depends on the size of the 5 yr old. But I don't think so. My boyfriend assists our 4 yr old with riding it. So I think it's fine.
