Discover The Joys Of An Electric Scooter!

It seems like an eternity ago that my wife and I decided to buy an electric scooter for our daughter Lisa.

She never would ride her bike, and we were racking our brains trying to think of some way to get her outside in the fresh air.

Finally, we talked to our neighbor who has 3 electric scooters in the family, and he was the one who "sold" us on the idea of buying one.

Luckily, we had him to kind of "guide" us through the purchase. To buy electric scooters was a totally new experience for us!

He said that we could expect to pay anywhere from 100.00 to 500.00, for a good electric scooter. Also, he said that most electric scooters for kids have a top speed of about 10 mph. He actually had a fast el;ectric scooter, that had a top speed of 20+ mph!

We ended up getting her a "Euro" style scooter, with a built in docking station for her iPod, and an F.M. radio.

She LOVES it! In fact, she has 3 girlfriends that also have electric scooters, and they go riding practically everyday.

Now, it's hard to get her back in the house! We like the scooter so much, that my wife and I are considering buying one for ourselves!
