Find their first whip.

By Age

Age guidance comes from the manufacturer or retailer. It's a starting point: children of the same age vary a lot, so always check the maximum load and seat room too.

A whip appears in every age group its published range overlaps. Why weight matters as much as age. Buying for Christmas? See the gift guide for 2 to 10 year olds. Know their exact age? Only see whips whose range includes it: 2 · 3 · 4 · 5 · 6 · 7 · 8 · 9 · 10 · 11 · 12

Ages 2 to 4

All 60

Look for low speeds, a parent remote with emergency stop, a seat belt, and 6V or 12V systems. Smooth, flat ground only.

Ages 4 to 6

All 61

12V is the sweet spot. Two motors help on lawn. A parent remote is still worth having for the younger end.

Ages 6+

All 50

Check maximum load and seat room first. 24V models, two-seaters and go karts come into play.
