Would a 1 year old be able to ride this?

Yes, but you will have to manually push or pull them around on it until they are old enough to scoot themselves.

It really depends on things like how tall or active your one year old is. As a general rule, a toddler of any age will need help with it. I find that even our five and seven year old prefer to be pushed than to get it moving themselves.

A one-yr-old would certainly grow into this. You both would have fun spinning him/her around in the meantime. It's a fun vehicle and the kiddos at the program where I work enjoy it.

It would depend on how coordinated he/she is. If he can push/pull with his feet them he can ride it.

Maybe, but the main thing is ability to understand and follow directions. You can try w a 1 year old, but be careful because the kids can impact your balance. A 3 year old can understand that, can help pedal, and can make you feel more comfortable.

I would say yes! My 4 year old rides it, so a 6 year old could handle it very well.

Yes! My little grandson just turned 1 year old and he does very well with this trike. He is very strong and on the verge of walking, so it's been pretty easy for him. We have had to help him some with the turns, but with more practice he will master it just fine. This is a very sturdy trike and the wheels set far enough apart in front to give it lots of stability. A great first trike for sure! I hope this helps with your decision.

My son is now 3 months old and weighs approx. 13lbs. He is about to outgrow this positioner so it would definetly be too small for a one year old.

Our daughter was only 18 months old when we gave it to her. I haven't found anything that would harm a one year old. We've had it for two months now, and no problems with her being too small or anything being dangerous.

yes, my 1 year is able to sit in it and be pushed around by his bigger brother. Im not sure that that is recommended... Also no there is no resistance to it, it moves as its pushed.

Yes, I think a one year old would enjoy this! It is easier than building a fort and my grandson loves crawling through it and just laying in it.

A 1.5 year old probably cannot get it moving like my 5 and 7 years olds can now (and it is not even that much) so I think it is a safe bet especially if it is on carpet or a rug to prevent sliding around.

Yes. We purchased it for my niece at age 1. She was able to work it. Now at age 4 she still rides it.

I don't think so. If your child is petite it may be. It worked well on my 3 and 4 year old grandchildren. I have not tried it on our 1 year old grandchild.

I would be comfortable with my one year old riding in it. It wouldn't be an overly cushy ride but I think if he meets the weight and height requirements and you make sure to install (and fasten him in) properly, it would work. I probably would feel more comfortable with an 18 month old in it, but I think it would work for a 1 year old and be safe.

The child is strapped in but not intensely. I'd say it may be OK if your child can sit up straight and not slouch too much. In general, the trailers aren't much better either, the only other option I'd recommend for a 1-year-old is a seat mounted on the handlebars.

I got this for my son when he was 13 months old. He likes to ride in it and also push it. Amazon's description and I think what is on the box says 18 months to 8 years. 1 year old is fine as long as they are walking a bit and have decent body control. I would think kids will get bored with by age 4.

Yes, I actually bought this for my almost 3 year old son for Christmas. He will be 3 the end of May, he can pedal it as long as he has the seat completely forward and is sitting on edge of it. He loves it!

It really depends on how tall your 1.5 yr old is. I bought this bike for my grandson's 2nd birthday. He was a bit short for the bike. He was on tiptoes to reach the ground when he sat on the seat. He loved the bike because, in spite of the challenging fit, he had a bike that was very similar to his older brother's two wheel bike.

It depends on your granddaughter's height. My 18 month old can almost pedal it and she's in the 75th percentile for height.
