Little Tikes Trike

For babies and beginning riders, this attractive trike makes it easy for kids and parents.

Full metal frame.
Grows with child.
Adjustable push handle and shade canopy.
Pedals pop out for older riders and push in for parent-assisted riders.
Foot rests and pedal locks for parent-assisted rides.
Harness to keep babies safely seated.
Add-on seat frame for younger riders.
Storage bucket for take-along fun.

This is the smartest idea I have seen in a long time. It functions as a stroller for young babies and grows with your baby right through the toddler years.

Parent reviews for the 3-in-1 Smart Trike:

Mia writes:

If you have a baby that’s not yet old enough to pedal, this is the perfect trike. They’re held in securely and their feet have a foot rest they can use until they’re a little older and more able. The direction control on the handle is great. Construction is great. Overall, this is the best product for the younger child, and even better it can grow with your baby, saving you some cash along the way.
This is it. Stop looking. Did I mention my tall 8 month old looooooves it?

The Little Tikes 3-in-1 Smart Trike is exactly what it claims to be, ‘Smart’. Our 17 month old was more than ready for a tricycle but we wanted one that he could be pushed in until he was old enough to reach the peddles and ride on his own. This is the perfect learn as you grow tricycle. It starts off with a safety loop and shoulder harness for the toddler. And the push bar allows the adult to steer. The peddles also have a unique feature. They allow you to move the ‘clutch’ ring outward and disengage the peddles so that the toddler who can reach the peddles but isn’t quite ready to actually keep up with the peddles while it’s in push mode can rest their feet on the peddles without it being dangerous. Then when the toddler is ready to peddle, the clutch ring can be moved inward to engage the peddles with the movement of the front wheel. This is a great idea! In the second stage the shoulder harness straps can be removed from the seatback safteyloop and the shoulder harness straps are to be attached to the seat to become a lap harness. – (Something that wasnn’t clear to some of the reviewers I read previously). So in the second stage you still have a seat belt. – The final stage, Stage 3 is simply to remove the push handle and the stationary footrests fold and flip up conveniently out of the way. All in all this is a very well thought out design. The construction is also very sturdy with an all steel frame, but the safety features are what really sets it apart from the crowd. – I would highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a tricycle for a toddler just starting out and who can’t yet reach the peddles. They can enjoy it for many months until they are ready to graduate to a small bicycle with training wheels.
