what age should the kid be to be in trailer

Over a year for sure. The seat isn't adjustable so the child needs to be able to adjust themselves in the seat if they hit a bump and get moved around.

The youngest probably 12-15 months. My son is 5 and weighs 38 pounds. Fits perfectly!

My kid is 2 and 1/2 and he does fine. The first time i rode him he was clise to 2 but I would start with a short trip to see how he/she likes it.

my son was 4 when I used this. he was tall for his age so his head bumped the top when he had a helmet on, but it still worked and he loved it!! The package says up to 50lbs.

At least one year old. If they can sit up in a regular stroller, they will have no problem riding in this.

I think 7 is a good age for this...my 3 year old is a bit small but figured it out in short order.

I would say 2 to 5 years old but it also depends on the size of the child and if they need training wheels. My son was 3 when we got this for him and he quickly grew out of it because of his height.

Gosh I don't know! My guess would be 5 years old or so. My son is two and a half and taller than average and he can't quite make the peddles turn yet.

According to the CDC, children should be in a rear or forward facing car seat until they are 40lbs. Check out the CDC website http://www.cdc.gov/MotorVehicleSafety/Child_Passenger_Safety/CPS-Factsheet.html

It is not too bad as it depends on how many children and the grade of the incline. We have two kids = about 60 or so pounds + around 30 pound trailer = close to 90 to 100 pounds.

I know that it seems that most people do not keep their children rear facing until at least 40 pounds, but in actuality extended rear facing is much, much, much safer for your child. Other countries keep children rear facing until age four and have much lower rates of child mortality in car crashes. Should you be interested in extended rear facing, I would check out the Diano Radian and the Clek Foonf. If your child is not tall, the Britax Advocate is another great choice. If you are set on turning your son around, I will say that we have this seat and absolutely love it. We use it for our almost 6 year old daughter and she is very comfortable in it. The seat installs like a dream and is very solid. It's heavy though, so I wouldn't choose it if you need to move it a lot. Hope this helps!

I'd say 8+. Maybe 10+. Kids younger than 8 will have problems. Adults will enjoy as well.

We bought this for our grandson. Although they wanted it he was too young for it. I would think 3 is the minimum age for this.

The manual I got (2011 version) said the maximum weight capacity per child is 40 lbs and the total weight (children and cargo) in the trailer cannot exceed 52 lbs. It is different from what the online manual said, 50 lbs /65 lbs (2009 version). https://www.instep.net/productInstepPDFFiles/230pdf-1pdf

It's generally best to be a minimum of 40 lbs. and age 4 before using a booster, though many kids are not ready until years later. They need to be able to sit safely in position in a booster.

That's at the young end of kids who would enjoy this the most. I think 10-13 is the optimal age to play this like it was intended to be played.

I'm m not real sure but i think I remember I read not over 50lbs.I know you can't put anything over 11 lbs. in the trailer.

If your child is under a year old or under 20 lbs their carseat should be rear facing.

Child should be big enough to be able to touch the ground.Kids are so different in size and ability.A child will enjoy this from roughly 12-36 months of age.

I think the guidelines say that any child under 4' 9" should be in a booster, although older kids can use a booster with no back on it. It is recommended to have kids in a 5-point harness until at they are least 4 years old AND 40 lbs, although some states allow kids to go into boosters at age 3 and 30 lbs.

Any kid above 3 should be able to enjoy with adult supervision. 8+ is the suggested age for kids to do it by themselves. It does require some amount dexterity to lock the door etc.
