Once your child reaches a certain age, there is no getting past it – you need a tricycle. There are quite a few choices out there for you when you do decide to make the jump.
When I was a kid you had two choices if you wanted a tricycle. The “Classic” or the “big wheels”. Times have changed. Here is a cross-section of what is out there.
If you look back at pictures of yourself when you are 2 or 3 chances are you will see this tricycle. It is a true classic and has not changed much in the last 30 years because it was virtually perfect when it was initially designed. Some of it’s features include:
• Classic tricycle styling
• Chrome handlebars and fender
• Sturdy steel construction
• Durable steel spoked wheels with real rubber tires
• Adjustable seat
• 10″ front wheel

The OKO Tricycle
This tricycle will turn heads when your child is playing with it. Extra large wheels with pliable tires, Ample padded saddle, and a sun shade – with a flexible and removable frame – which shelters both the sun and rain. A pushbar can be slipped into the frame. A 3 point safety belt, lever brake on the front wheel and 45° right and left topple-proof steering stop. All this guarantees even more safety. A pushbar and steering lock for adult control can be utilised for younger children and OKO also has a three point safety belt, lever brake on the front wheel and 45 degree right and left topple proof steering stop.

This tricycle is awesome! It is made by Fisher Price and it incorporates 3 toys into 1. This trike transforms from a rocker into a tricycle into a two-wheeler with a handle for mom/dad to steer. I love that you only need to buy one toy that will grow with your child. Unlike some of the bigger tricycles, this one is good for babies 1 year and up.
