smarTrike Wonder Plus: The Parent-Controlled Trike That Gives Toddlers Their Independence
smarTrike Wonder Review: The Parent-Controlled Trike That Gives Toddlers Their Independence: By Rachel Ducker
There is something very sweet, and slightly terrifying, about the stage when toddlers suddenly decide they want to do everything themselves.
At one year old, my daughter Isla is firmly in full bloom of this ‘I can do it myself’ phase, and there’s something very endearing about her wanting to walk around, explore, go in the direction she wants to go, hold things, point at things… and generally be in control of everything around her.
We love the smarTrike Wonder Plus! Isla loves it because it makes her feel so independent – she can ‘ride’ around wherever she wants and I can follow behind her, controlling the steering! A perfect toddler’s mobility product for me and my little one.
A Trike Designed For Modern Family Life
smarTrike is an award-winning family brand that designs clever, practical mobility products for children. The new Wonder family of trikes have been designed with the modern family in mind. Rather than a simple children’s ride-on, these trikes have been designed with the school run, trips to the park, popping to the shops, as well as school holidays and breaks away from home in mind.
The smarTrike Wonder Plus is an award-winning award winning brand of children’s products and this, the latest model from their Wonder family, is a super-practical trike designed for modern family life. It is a beautiful design that is more than a kid’s ride-on; it is a complete mobility solution for toddlers – designed for school runs, trips to the park and playground, daily shopping, as well as for trips and holidays. It is very lightweight and folds up neatly to be easily stored in a very small space.
One of the best features of the Wonder is that it folds down so quickly and easily to a compact size for storage. This means that it can be stored in a corner of a room, in the house or indeed in the boot of a car.
The trike is even compact enough to be pushed down the car and then placed in the footwell of the car, this is ideal when the boot is already packed with all sorts of other bits and bobs such as scooters, pushchairs, bags, toys, kids coats and plenty of other toddler essentials that seem to be needed on a daily basis.
Tried And Tested By One-Year-Old Isla
We have been giving the smarTrike Wonder Plus a try with little Isla and she absolutely loves it! She looks so proud to be sat in the trike, she can look around and hold on as she goes along. The smarTrike Wonder is really parent-friendly too, so even though Isla is loving being independent, I am in control of her every move.
This is perfect for toddlers who want to explore but aren’t yet able to walk far or safely make their way through busy areas. It’s also really good for me, as it makes going out and about with Isla so much easier than if she was just walking. Instead of me constantly picking her up and down, and her running off in all directions, we can go for a nice leisurely walk together, with her sitting happily in her trike.
The smarTrike Wonder Plus has also made our life easier as it means we don’t have to keep picking up and putting down Isla, chasing after her or trying to get her to go back into the buggy. She loves the Wonder and it makes life easier for us too.
The Clever 360° Easy-Steer System
One of the cleverest and most well thought out features of the Wonder is the patented 360° easy-steer system. It makes for very easy parent controlled steering. The front wheel of the trike turns very smoothly and sensibly with the handle, allowing for tight turns when required.
This makes for very easy use when driving on pavement, in parks, around shops and when travelling in general. It’s very smooth and really does feel to be very easy to handle. This makes for a very stress-free time for parents when out with their little ones.
The parent-controlled steering also means that the little ones can travel around in their own trike, with their own independence, whilst the parent is in complete control of the children’s direction and safety.
Great For Confidence And Development
This trike is great for toddlers’ confidence and their development. It encourages coordination, balance, and gives them confidence to move around on their own while doing all sorts of activities and traveling all around the place.
The smarTrike Wonder Plus is a fantastic trike that not only allows your toddler to feel the freedom of travelling around but also helps to encourage their coordination, balance, confidence and even their pedalling and independent movement. All of this is done in a safe and fun environment that will allow your little one to explore the world around them at their own pace.
It is the kind of product that grows with their curiosity!
Ideal For Travel, Holidays And Everyday Errands
This Urban Traveling machine has been designed as a fun and practical traveling solution for families, and it really is. I would say that it is the perfect traveling companion for everyday use as well as for holidays.
This means that the Wonder Plus is perfect for travelling all over the place – whether it’s to the local park or to a destination miles away – and you can take it with you in the car or on the plane. The smarTrike Wonder Plus folds up and can be taken on as a carry-on bag, which makes it the perfect choice for families that are always on the go. It’s also perfect for longer trips as you don’t have to keep loading and unloading the kids from the buggy time and time again.
The freedom of the trike with the control of the parent for the little ones who want to explore but are not quite ready to walk.
Final Thoughts
SmarTrike Wonder Plus is a brilliant toddler trike for the toddler who wants to be independent but needs to be supported. It’s been fun watching Isla enjoy her smarTrike Wonder Plus, she looks so grown up sitting in her little trike, looking from side to side, holding on and pedalling off as she goes along. I feel proud of her too, as she’s learning to be independent and she looks so happy.
