Best E-Scooters for Kids
Electric scooters have become a favorite way for kids in Dubai to get around. As a parent, finding the right escooter that balances fun with safety is key. ScootUp offers excellent options for children of all ages, from beginner riders to teens ready for more advanced models. This guide will help you discover the perfect escooter for your child, with important information about safety features, parental controls, and essential gear.
How to Choose the Right Kids' Electric Scooter
When picking an escooter for your child, several factors need attention. The right choice depends on your child's age, size, experience level, and where they'll be riding.
Age and Size Considerations
Different escooters work best for different age groups:
· Ages 6-8: Look for models with lower speeds (8-10 km/h), simple controls, and stable platforms
· Ages 8-12: Children can handle slightly more advanced models with speeds up to 15 km/h
· Ages 12+: Older kids can manage escooters with higher speeds and more features, though still with safety limits
Always check the manufacturer's recommended age and weight limits. Most kids' escooters support riders between 40-75 kg depending on the model.
Speed and Power
For young kids, lower speeds are safer. Many children's escooters offer:
· Beginner modes: 6-8 km/h
· Standard modes: 10-12 km/h
· Advanced modes (for older kids): 15-20 km/h
The motor power typically ranges from 130W for young children to 250-400W for older kids.
Safety Features
Important safety features to look for include:
· Reliable braking systems (often dual brakes)
· Speed limiters and different riding modes
· Non-slip decks for secure footing
· LED lights for visibility
· Stable wheel design
· App connectivity for parental controls

Essential Safety Gear for Young Riders
Protective Equipment Every Child Needs
Safety gear is not optional when riding electric scooters. Here's what every young rider should wear:
Helmets: The most critical safety item. Look for:
· Proper fit (snug but comfortable)
· Adjustable straps
· Good ventilation
· CPSC certification
Knee and Elbow Pads: Quality pads should feature:
· D3O impact protection technology (absorbs shock better than standard pads)
· Secure straps that won't slip
· Breathable materials for comfort in Dubai's heat
· Flexible design that doesn't restrict movement
Wrist Guards: These prevent common wrist injuries during falls by:
· Limiting backward bending of the wrist
· Distributing impact forces across a larger area
· Providing palm protection against scrapes
Visibility Gear: Especially important for evening rides:
· Reflective vests or strips
· Bright clothing
· Additional clip-on lights
Fitting Safety Gear Properly
Protective gear only works when it fits correctly. Keep these tips in mind:
· Helmet should sit level on the head, not tilted back
· You should be able to fit only one finger between the strap and chin
· Pads should cover the entire knee/elbow without sliding
· Replace any gear that becomes damaged or that your child outgrows
