Cool Bikes and Accessories for Kids

Why drive when you can ride? Not only is bicycling a great workout for everyone in the family; it’s an earth-friendly way to travel, too. So, in honor of National Bike Month, we’ve rounded up the hottest bikes for all levels of riders, plus fun accessories to upgrade anyone’s two (or three) wheeler. Ride on!

 

Strider PREbike Toddler Balance Bike

Training wheels are so last summer. The Strider allows little ones ages 1-5 to learn two-wheeled riding on a model designed to teach balance for beginners. In place of pedals are integrated footrests so riders can lift their feet on and off the ground whenever they feel ready (or wobbly). Available in additional colors. Snag it at Target for $89.

(For a similar version of the PREbike, check out the Kazam Balance Bike, built for riders ages 3-6, $99 at Walmart.)

Say good-bye to plain-old spokes! These easy-to-attach lights will not only jazz up your bikers’ wheels, but they’re also great for lighting up nightriders. Creativity is a must for personalizing with these fun spinning light shows. Lights come with 16 different colors and can be set to spin in 19 different designs. 3 AA batteries required. Available for $50 at Monkeylectric.
