At a time where screens have the potential to dominate childhood experiences, the classic balance bike stands as an example of traditional outdoor play, and the newly launched tickit Whizz Bike exemplifies this philosophy perfectly!

Crafted with sustainability and longevity at its core, this balance bike features a durable, rustproof frame designed to withstand the adventurers of enthusiastic young riders whilst minimising environmental impact from replacing outdoor equipment like this regularly as the child grows.

"We believe products should be built to last," explains Honor Davidson, tickit's Head of Marketing. "The Whizz Bike embodies our commitment to creating products that grow and develop with the child rather than being quickly outgrown and discarded."

Just to prove they are serious, this exceptional balance bike is backed by a five-year warranty, making the Whizz Bike ideal not only for families with multiple children but also for childminders and nursery settings. Available in three exciting and elegant colours, the bike's adjustable seat accommodates children from 24 months onwards, ensuring years of continuous use.

Thoughtful Design

The impressive features don't end here, the puncture-proof tyres eliminate the need for replacements, reducing waste whilst guaranteeing uninterrupted play regardless of terrain. This thoughtful design allows children to explore natural environments without parents and caregivers worrying about maintenance issues.

Vicki, parent, home educator and early years influencer, stated, "The wheels are thick and great for different terrain, strong and robust. I can't wait for the girls to enjoy the bike more and seeing how they go from strength to strength!"

While toy testers at a large childcare setting reported that "The children loved it, finding it sturdy and easy to manoeuvre. Made from reinforced nylon, the bike shows no signs of wear from outdoor play, while the solid rubber wheels eliminate puncture concerns. Its adjustable seat height caters perfectly to both toddlers and preschoolers."

Developing Balance and Core Strength

Introducing balance bikes in early childhood offers important developmental advantages that extend beyond learning to cycle. The tickit Whizz Bike helps children develop crucial physical skills including balance, coordination and core strength whilst building spatial awareness that prepares them for eventually riding pedal bikes, often without needing stabilisers.

"Watching kids master their first bike is a milestone for any parent. The Whizz Balance Bike combines thoughtful design with features that adapt as your child grows, delivering a safe and enjoyable riding experience," said Andrea Storer, Head of Product Development & Research.

Beyond physical benefits, balance bikes help improve confidence and independence as children learn to control their own movement and experience the satisfaction of mastering new skills. They also offer the opportunity to improve decision-making skills as children learn to assess risks, adjust their speed and navigate around obstacles. This practical problem-solving occurs naturally during play and transfers to other areas of development as the child grows.
