Promoting Physical Activity and Coordination for Kids!
Kick scooters can provide a great way for kids to stay active and have fun at the same time. Some of the health benefits of kick scooters for kids include:
Improved Balance and Coordination:
Scooting helps kids learn how to balance and coordinate their movements.
Increased physical activity:
Scooting provides kids with a fun and active way to get to school. This can help to improve their physical health and wellbeing as it increases their daily physical activity.
Strengthened Muscles:
Scooting helps kids strengthen their leg and core muscles.
Improved Mental Focus:
The physical activity associated with scooting to school can help to improve focus and concentration for kids, allowing them to start their day off with a clear and focused mind.
Stress relief:
The wind in their hair and the freedom of scooting to school can be incredibly calming, helping to reduce stress and anxiety levels before they even arrive at school.
Developed Confidence:
Scooting helps kids build confidence and teaches them how to take risks.
Pediatric Physiotheraphy
In addition to the mentioned benefits, our scooters are also used in pediatric physiotheraphy for children and adolescents. Physiotherapists at University Children’s Hospital Zurich share their experiences using Micro Scooters:
“The seriously ill children in the children’s hospital, for example in oncology, can cover a greater distance in the house with little effort using the Micro Scooter and are therefore independently mobile. They have fun, improve their strength and endurance and experience a bit of normalcy in a very difficult life situation.”
“In pediatric physiotherapy, we support the motor development of a child through various offers. This also includes allowing children who are physically restricted to experience and learn how to move independently and age-appropriately, such as riding a scooter. Our patients from all fields have a lot of fun with this activity and for us, the Micro Scooter is an important child-friendly aid to improve the strength, endurance, and participation of the child.”
