Now even the youngest of toddlers can get in on some Mini Micro Scooter action!
No longer a fun pastime just for preschoolers, children as young as one can have fun scooting – all you need is a Mini Micro Scooter and this awesome Kick3 seat. Converting Mini Micro scooters to toddler scooters is easy, it’s simply a matter of slotting the seat and O-bar into the existing Mini Micro Scooter deck, adjusting the seat height and off your little one can roll.
The Kick3 seat has two adjustable seat heights, starting with the lowest at twenty-two centimetres, then moving up to twenty-nine centimetres before being removed completely. The fantastic O-bar has a handlebar height of forty-nine centimetres and can even be used without the seat until your child is tall enough to switch it for the regular Mini Micro Scooter T-bar.
The O-bar works the same way as the regular Mini Micro Scooter kickboard steering – using weight transfer to gently steer in that direction – which is excellent for young children learning balance and coordination. This seat really does allow you to get the very most use out of your Mini Micro Scooter.
The Kick3 seat is $39.50, the Mini Micro Scooter retails for $119.50 and both are available from Micro Scooters, who will deliver free of charge within Australia.

I got my 2 year old son a micro scooter for Christmas, he loves it and is getting more confident each day, maybe I can buy kick3 seat for when his sister (is older) wants a go
My 2-year-old son also has a mini micro scooter and loves it but my 4-year-old daughter hates it. She had a different three-wheel-scooter as a toddler, with steering that required you to actually turn the handlebars in the direction you wanted to go, so the steering of the micro just annoys her – she tended to always veer left when using her brother’s and found it hard to keep the scooter straight. I was intending on upgrading her from her three-wheeler to a maxi but she put her foot down, as four-year-olds can do so well, and refused it, instead choosing a (much cheaper!) two-wheel razor scooter. She is slowly getting used to balancing that and Is doing a good job. I think it may depend on what they are used to – if they start with the micro, then it becomes second nature. If they’ve used a “standard” scooter, then the micro steering can frustrate. The micro does zip along much faster than any other three-wheeler I’ve seen, which is great for when they are proficient. ~ NT
