Gamecraft Safety Guard Scooters

I teach students in special education. This year I have kids in lower elementary with a lot of motor issues (a regular person wouldn't necessarily notice). So I ordered this to see if it would help with those who have behavioral issues as well during "brain breaks". I could not believe the transformation in one day. The pressure of the being on their stomach and then having to use all 4 extremities was a miracle! One student who usually got no work completed in the morning and would have beahvioral issues all morning, completed more work than needed. He used he scooter every 1/2 hour and loved it. I am buying another one!

Man these take me back to gym class playing various games, but having to do it all while on these scooters. I really want to get some for my toddlers, but I'm afraid they aren't QUITE ready for them yet.I bought one for myself because I'm a photographer and I do a lot of baby and toddler studio shoots. It's the perfect little scooter to help me scoot around on the floor and maintain a good height in respect to the kiddos.I still plan to buy some more for the boys once they get a little older!

Such a cool toy for a very affordable price! This toy is the first thing my DD goes to after she gets back from school. She is 8, my DS is 2 and they both absolutely LOVE playing with this scooter board.My toddler usually goes on his tummy and "swims" around, puts his favorite puppy dog or some other toy on it and pushes it around or just sits on it to watch TV.My DD uses it all the time to move around the house. It just helps her unwind after school. When her friends come by, they have a riot thinking of crazy stuff to do with this scooter.We have hardwood floors and I don't see a single scratch. The kids even use it on carpeted rooms. It moves pretty well although not as fast.The wheels move super smoothly, plastic is sturdy and holds my weight without bending even a little.The upper weight limit mentioned is 175lbs and it's made in Taiwan.No complaints.. LOVE IT!

It seems to settle them down when they get restless.It does need to be used under supervision. One day, despite warnings, the 7 yr old got going too fast and ran it over his finger, skinning it a bit. However, that was HIS fault as he had been warned it could cut his finger if he wasn't careful. He's now using it more responsibility and not sneaking it to push himself around on, with no more untoward experiences.

My son has hypotonia (low muscle tone) through his upper body, and his occupational therapist recommended this board for at-home play. He (and his sisters) love to ride around the house on this. Since our goal is upper body muscle building, the kids lay on their stomachs on the board, and maneuver by using their arms and chest muscles to push around. Great fun! The wheels turn very quickly though, so this board is dangerous if children stand on it while on a hard floor surface.

I actually bought this specific scooter because my son's BFF brought two of these over when they came for a visit. previously we had never seen these before. My friend (the Mom) had bought them for the same reason - a friend brought them over and they had such fun playing on them, they bought them, as well.The kids have SO MUCH FUN playing on these - there doesn't seem to be a "right" way to use them, an so they use them in a myriad of ways. They love to race and roll and play on them. They will tie two together and have someone pull them. I could even see these being used for moving boxes or something, if need be - in fact, that's what my friend first thought they were when she saw them.These are such fun scooters, and provide a great amount of fun - highly recommended!

These were a real hit. My niece said they were her second favorite gift of the holiday season - and that is saying something.They are exactly the same scooters that you find at gym classes around the country (or did years ago). They have the same perks and flaws. Sturdy-seeming swivels, wheels that roll, built to last, but at some point they will need replacing. IMO, minimal supervision is required.They slide well on linoleum, the hard wood, and around the cult-a-sac. A great way to get the kids active and playing. Now all we need is a parachute...Recommend without reservation. (the lack of the final star is because I am certain with heavy use they will need to be replaced within, say, 18-36 months, but I will change my review if they last beyond that.)

I got this for an individual who can not walk but chooses to scoot around on his bottom. He really took no interest in it, though I thought it would make it easier for him to get around. He is a bit mischievous, so that could be a good thing in a way lol. Anyway, the product itself isn't too bad. Seems to be of decent quality, and is certainly something that kids would have fun with!

These are fun little things. They don't work well on carpet (I have very hard, low pile carpet) but works great on wood. Doesn't seem to scratch the floor, thankfully. The plastic handles bend slightly if you put all your weight on them but in general, it seems well made. I foresee the plastic cracking and maybe the wheel breaking in the distant future, but they were worth the price I paid for (<30$). Hopefully we will get at least a year's use.

I absolutely love this scooter board for my little one. It is excellent for gross motor skills. It keeps her active and gets the imagination going. She uses it on her tummy, she sits on it. She goes backwards and forwards. She pretends she's on a train. She takes her dolls for rides - just a super super product. Love keeping her active both in mind and body.

My 7 year old hasn't stopped scooting around the house on this since she got it! Even if she's sitting, her feet are moving this back and forth. Loading it up and pushing it. Awesome. Couldn't be happier with it!

I bought this for my son for exercise and him to play with, but also using it to move things around in my place (can hold up to 75 lbs.), not to strain myself. So it is a good investment as it has more than one use. Highly recommended!

You get what is in the picture, not very well built, wheels are flimsy...
