We bought Paige this Kettler Trike for her birthday. We liked that we could lock the handlebars while we are pushing it. That way she can't steer it into the road. And she can rest her feet on the pedals as it moves instead of pedaling. We thought it was a good option for this year since she is small and probably can't ride all the way to the park and back, at least at the beginning of the summer (and we can adjust the seat so she can reach both pedals). But if she is able to ride it a bit, we do have the option of the handle to take control if she gets crazy. It'll be a fun trike to take to the park and around the street. The model down from this one had a big bucket in the back, but not the steering lock, so we chose this one. I'll just have to wear a backpack if bringing any snacks or water on our journeys. Yes we know it's expensive, and that is why she is only getting miniature other items to open for her birthday. Sadly, she was with us when we bought it and not that enthused, but will hopefully like it when she realizes it can get her to the park and back. Grandma Maura had told us about the store (Mastermind Toys) before, but we had never gone in. It makes me never want to go to Toys R Us again! This store was so much cooler.

WOW, what a neat trike especially since it doubles as a "stroller". I think my kids got tiny trikes at 2 years old, and I'm pretty sure we bought one for Michael at that age too. She probably won't give you any trouble when she is tired of pedalling. haha Love Gramama
Good buy! And Happy Second Birthday Paige. Seriously, we should meet up at the park. We are going nearly every morning when it doesn't rain.
