would this be okay for a 2 year old? would he reach the petals?

I bought this for my 3 year old grandson and put blocks on the pedals (and he is a bit tall for his age). So it would depend how long his legs are. Best to find one in a store and sit him on it (I did) to see if pedal blocks would work.

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

This will be a little too big for a 2 year old. My grandson is 3 years old and he can pedal going straight forward but his legs are too short when turning. I think there is a smaller version.

I think if he's a young 2 year old then it is probably too big but if he's 2.5 almost 3 then it should be fine. It takes some coordination and I'm not sure a young 2 year old would know how to work/control the handles.

I would not consider it a toy and think that it would not be appropriate for a 2 year old. I would recommend an age range of at least 5 and up. I actually bought one for myself.

Probably unless she is very petite or small for her age. Great for a 2 year old.

I guess it kind of depends on the 2 year old. We bought this for our granddaughter when she was two. She has a very vivid imagination and she enjoyed it greatly. Even if they are a little young they will quickly grow into it. (And, if Sophie is any indication, have a great deal of fun!)

I bought this for my 2-year old. The seat definitely goes down low enough for two-year old height. She loves putting things in the little pouch in front and LOVES the water bottle. Developmentally, she wasn't quite ready for a bike right at 2. She's slowly learned to peddle and propel herself a little, but at 2.5, she's still not strong enough to peddle unless we are on even pavement. We use the back handle a lot. I'm hoping this bike will grow with her for a couple more years. It's a solid choice, but you might also consider a balance bike (without peddles) to ease your child into the world of bicycles.

THe two pieces of the butterfly top close relatively slowly so there would be ample time to put fingers in, see the top closing and pull them out. Also, its been awhile since I've been around toddlers so I don't recall how tall they are. The large version of the butterfly may be too tall for a toddler to reach the top?!

as long as he can hold tube , he will be OK. but make sure he can fit to tube. my 2 years girl can use only 2 year since she is getting tight.as i knew there were various size model.

Hello Linda, I bought this for my 2 year old, the pedals were a little hard for him to reach. We moved the seat up as far as it would go and ended up also making some pedal blocks. My son is very tall for a 2 year old and he couldn't reach the pedals. The bike is awesome though and he loves it! Kristen

I think it would work perfectly for your 2 year old. However, it might be a bit too small for your 5 year old. I believe it's up to 44", so his feet will probably be almost touching the ground-cuttinf it too close.

I bought this for my daughter's 2nd birthday and it was just fine. My daughter is a bit on the taller side, but I think for most two year olds this would work well. The height from the floor to the curve of the handle is about 26". So if her eye level is over 26-27" it will work great. Hope that helps!

My 2 year old boy loves it, but he's very active and loves climbing anything. My 3 1/2 year old enjoys it as well. I would say ages 2-4 would be appropriate.

My daughter received it for her 3rd birthday. She is slightly taller than average. The legs do not reach the floor. I would say it's perfect for a 2 year old.

I think most 2 year olds would be too short to use this and it may be hard for them to maneuver it. My just turned 4 year old has only had the hang of it for maybe 6 mo.

I feel it would be okay for the 2 year old, but am not sure the 13 month could grasp the concept. I don't remember any small parts that would be a choking hazard, but highly recommend you check it upon arrival and remove any small pieces that are in the package.

My son is 2 1/2 years old and has no issues with pushing the button to release the cars or with knowing how the cars go down the tracks. I would say any child 2 y/o and beyond will be able to enjoy it. the product is surely safe for the recommended 18 months and beyond. Just keep in mind that those that are younger then 18 months will more then likely have vertical stability issues as they are still learning how to keep upright while performing other tasks that require many adjustments to their positions.

I think it better suited for a 2 year old...a i year old would not be tall enough to see in the mirror and would be trying to climb up on it. I would not recommend it for your 1 year old unless she is very close to turning 2. It is sturdy and well made...but is specifically made for 2 yrs on up.
