My 4.5y old and 2.5y old are battling over the mini micro and, instead of buying a second mini micro, I was wondering whether to just get the maxi for the 4.5y old. She is about 105cm, which is probably average-to-small for age - is that too short for a maxi? John Lewis states from age 6y but it also states the mini is from 3y and my kids were using it from 2+yrs.

Thanks!

I think so. My 3 (4 in Jan) year old plays with her siblings maxi scooters, with the handles right down I think she would be fine to ride them properly (she's on a mini micro).


More than happy for you to try one too if you like? We are near Goodrich school.


The maxis are great - we've had 3 years use out of them now, and they're still going strong, my older children are 7 and nearly 9.

That would be really helpful, thank you - I will PM you.

It is exactly the same height as the mini Snowboarder, you're right. As you say its a bit heavier, the footplate is bigger and its a bit sturdier. We have one and my 4.5 year old loves it and scoots so much better on it than he did on his mini micro that he fell over the top of a lot, so suspect the weight helps for him. My 2 year old also uses it on occasions and is generally fine - although fell off the other day when scooting in circles so think it was a bit heavy for her! As long as your 4.5 yr old scoots the whole way rather than needing you to carry it on the way back from somewhere I'd go for it!

    • I can't access the article - what's the gist?  I took the markets getting jittery when she was crying at PMQs to be a sign that they trusted her. But maybe it was because they were simply worried about any form of instability.  The NIC hikes have stymied the economy, which we could all see a mile off. Will a wealth tax improve things? Does anyone here think the trickle down has any impact and that chasing out the super rich will help things? Or are we just seeing off the biggest contributors to the economy? And has the Kwasi approach ever worked anywhere else?  Economics is not my strong point at all, I'd love to know others' opinions, but it seems to be she has few options, especially as the party is so divided. 
    • does either of them have a surgery? probably not over summer, but I thought they had to give the opportunity for their constituents to meet them.
    • MaryT, I’ve contacted the Dulwich Hill councillors several times in recent years, always copying them both in. I have never had an acknowledgment from Jon Hartley (not even an automated response or out-of-office) nor had any response or engagement from him regarding the issue raised.   On each occasion, only Maggie Browning responded (she uses an out-of-office if she is away). The last time, I received no response from either for 3 months, until Maggie Browning emailed me to apologise for not responding and asking if the problem had been resolved.
    • The  Kwasi effect is being considered.
