Growing and Going…
There's more to this trike than just a great ride! The Roll 'n Ride Trike XL promotes physical activity, a great way to keep kids engaged with their surroundings. Learning to rock, pedal and steer encourages the development of motor skills, and it promotes healthy physical and emotional development, too. Every time your child masters a new skill, it paves the way to independence and a growing sense of “I can do it!” self-confidence. And of course, being active helps to keep them fit.
Years of Use for Miles of Smiles!
Rock, Roll ‘n Ride Trike XL is built Fisher-Price tough, with features designed for kids including a wide wheelbase for stability, an adjustable seat, a footrest that flips up and out of the way, chunky pedals and easy-grip handlebars. In addition, the trike is built perfect for parents to push their kids along. The X-tra long push handle provides the length and leg-room required to comfortably stroll behind your child. Lots of fun for kids and parents alike!

The biggest flaw we found is with the plastic "tires." They look cute, but are really slippery, so they don't grip the ground well. My son had a really hard time learning to pedal because he'd get the movements right, but the trike wouldn't go anywhere... he just literally spun his wheels. Then, my husband wrapped rubber bands around the tires to help them get some traction, and that helped Jake long enough to get the hang of it. Also, if you use this outside, the tires get pretty scraped up, so you might not want to bring it back indoors where it could scratch your floors.
Another flaw was the short push handle, but according to the specs for this model they have lengthened the pushbar, which can only be good. I'm 5'6" and I thought it was too short for me before.
Lastly, I think this item has a short life span for your child. Jake turned three years old at the end of January, and he's really outgrown it in terms of what the trike can do. The ride just isn't smooth enough to justify him using for real "bike riding."
I've read a lot about trikes tipping, and if I think about it, this does tip, but not all that often, so that's a good feature.
Finally, I guess this is a good recommendation as an indoor toy. For a longer-lasting outdoor toy, I'd try one of the Kettlers.
