Will an 8 year that just received an electric scooter for Christmas still enjoy this type of toy?.

I would think so. My son had actually seen the electric version of this. But with four wheelers and side by sides here I didn't think he needed another electric toy. He still loves it.

He could enjoy it very much but he must wear protective helmet and elbow and knee pads because the scooter spins around without knowing when it will, and you may fall off. It is low to the ground so you will not fall far,but it does go very fast. My grandson loves his. He is 11. Years old.

Yes very much so. All the kids in the neighbor hood have them and that are tons of fun!

My now 9 yr. old granddaughter has had hers for 3 years and she still loves it, as does her 7 yr. old brother. lt's very different then a scooter in that it goes in circles and 'flies' down the street and the sidewalks. It's great on play grounds and short lawns too. I hope this helps. BWD

I bought this scooter for my 8 year old grandson and he likes it very much, only problem it wobble a lot, after a day of hard scootering, we have three years warranty on it so we decided to keep it

Hi This is a nice scooter which should last many years and your 6 year old would get many years out of this scooter. Being six he or she would start off slow and get more adventures as the older they get. It is a nice scooter. Each child has to learn balance. Good luck,

yes definitely, our son just turned 7 and absolutely loves it. it is an impressive remote control vehicle. just make sure you get the wheelie bar with it because it keeps it from rolling over

If she can balance pretty well she will do ok. My daughter got her share of scraps and bumps learning to handle the scooter. If a sidewalk has an uneven surface, she may tumble head first. She even got a good mark on her cheek from the corner of the handle bar. Make sure the handle bar is adjusted for her height. My daughter is 6 now and still rides it. I have definitely been getting my monies worth. Good luck.

Hi, our son is 7. He has had this scooter for over a year now, and it is still just as awesome as it was the day he got it! He'll be using this until he decides he doesn't want to ride scooters anymore (if that ever happens). That speaks to how well-made these scooters are. Plus all of the parts are replaceable at a reasonable cost so should you ever have to replace something just go to the MaxiKick website and order it! We love these scooters -- definitely a good value for the money (we've purchased 3 so far)! My husband and I even enjoy taking them for a ride every now and then! ;)

Absolutely the best! Two of my great-granddaughters got them for Christmas last year when they were 6 and 7-1/2 and they love them. The scooters have gotten lots of wear and tear and they're still in good condition. GO FOR IT!!!

My 7 year old boy rides it just fine... and my 13 year old son has also puttered around on it. The 7 year old actually prefers it over his Razor scooter (to our surprise!). Be aware, though - the handle bars are a SET height - no raising or lowering like you can on the Razor.

I checked with my son since I bought the Radio Flyer Scooters for my twin grandsons who live far from me. My son said the toy rides excellent outside!

Absolutely. My grandson is still playing with it a year later. He was 6 last Christmas and it was his favorite gift of all.

I think he will - providing of course he enjoys scooting around! I'd say it's definitely worth it!It's very cute and my grandsons used it for a couple of years!

Sorry, just saw your question today. We bought these for our Grandboys that were 3 and 4 at the time,but there sister older sister rode these as well. She was 8. These were the best quality scooters we could buy and the boys are still riding them. I would buy them again. Hope this helps.

My onion: yes. Think a 2 wheeled razor scooter is more appropriate for a 10 yr old. These are more associated with smaller children.

my son happy with toy, would be christmas .. deliver the best idea for immediate ... enjoy distracted much, too tough toy ... activities performed with your friends, dad and heroes

When my son was 8 he easily could ride my rockboard scooter. But with anything new it takes practice. I would advise if you get one to make sure to keep all the screws and bolts tight. they tend to loosen when used a lot. Not very good for a place with a lot of hills.

Hi Rose - Most Pro style scooters are for ages 8 yrs and up - it will be a bit too big/heavy for your 5yr. Customer Care - Universo Extremo BoardsLINK to ALL SCOOTERS: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=me%3DA3RAHGQK0SYUI5&field-keywords;=Scooter

We got one for Christmas for our kids My 8 year old can ride it but his knees are almost to the handle bars so he won't be on it for much longer. Plus it wears te battery down quicker when he rides it. We are going to go with a gas powered one for him next time, my 6 year old twins have a ball though. Oh and my 8 year old is small for his age.
