As Wisconsin weather warms, kids are dusting off the scooters they received as Christmas presents, gearing up for some outdoor fun.
Collapsible scooters are a hot new recreational item.
Kids are especially enjoying this affordable, easy to ride version of an old means of conveyance. Some scooters have been recalled because of defects that could lead to injury. Children, ages 8 and under should not use scooters without close adult supervision. Check the scooter often for hazards such as loose, broken or cracked parts. Confine riding to parks with paved paths or neighborhoods with sidewalks.
