My son is going to be 4, I am wondering if I should get the larger 16 in or go with a 12 in! He is sort of small for his age but not much!!

I bought 12in before my son was 4 years old and he is a little tall. I recommend this bike size before 4 years. I believe he should be good to go for a couple years.

12 inch is perfect for my 3 year old grand sons, a four year old may need bigger. Go to Target or Walmart and just look at the 12 inch and 16 inch bike and that might help you decide before you order from Amazon.

My grandson is already 4 and the bike fits him fine. I believe he should be good to go for a couple years.

If he doesnt already ride a pedal bike I would recommend the 12" you will inevitably have to get the 16" as well but use the 12" to boost confidence. I have a 4 and 6 year old and my older boy is just now getting comfortable with the 16" he kept trying to steal back the little bike

Yes, my 4 year old loved it and she is a shorter 4 year old. We are now looking at the 16 inch. With the 16 inch she struggles a little to do a full pedal since her legs cant reach.

My son is 37-38 ins and went with 14" and am glad I did. 12 would not last long. The 14 with the seat and handlebars at lowest are fine and can e adjusted as he grows.

Hello, I have a 3 year old and a 5 year old. I baught a 16inch for my 3 yr old. It's perfect size for him, especially with the training wheels. I baught the 18inch for my 5 year old. He rides without the training wheels.

If the 16 yr old is big or strong this is too small. My grandson is 8 and this is the perfect size for him. A 12 yr old cousin was using it too but he's a big 12 yr old and he was almost too big for it. I hope this helps.

I would get the mini glider for a 43" tall boy. If you look at the reviews, there is one that mentions the go glider is too tall for a 43" boy. I recommend getting both if you have a younger child too.

my son is 11 & the thinks this board is very large. When I did my research, they suggested this size for kids just above his size/weight/age. I chose it because the site suggested you go up if you are straddling areas. My son is a beginning beginner too. I suggest a size down for your son unless he's really tall. (My son is 4'9"). As far as the street goes - I've had no complaints from him but he's still learning (just got his in April). Good luck :)

Dear MaryThank you for your inquiry! According to the sizing guide the 16 inch is suitable for the height of your child.

Hi Stephanie! Hmm . . .my son Zach just turned 5 last month and I was JUST starting to consider buying the next size up for him here pretty soon. Although this set is a decent size, in my opinion I think you might be happier with something a little bigger?

Hi Carol, I would get the 6-8. My son is 8 now and an average size. I bought this when he was six and I purchased the 6-8 and he has worn it a couple of years, Halloween, career day (he wants to be an astronaut), etc. It is the cutest and he gets so many compliments on it. He won't be able to wear it this year, he's finally out growing it.

I bought a large for my 12 year old grandson....he is heavy set though. I would say small for the 7 yr. old and medium for the 12 year old, unless he is heavy set in which case I would go for the large. He loves them.

My child is 48 lbs, 48" and I got him the 6. He still has a bit of room to grow but he is lean and wiry. The 8 will probably be best, and there will be plenty of room to grow into it. P.S. the zippers are pretty flimsy on these newer models.

I've been wondering myself. Can't seem to find anywhere in all the reviews, which size to pick up for an 8 year old. Should I do the 14" or the 12". Let me know if you went ahead w/ a purchase. Thanks!!

Vernon, my Grandson is 3 and, after pushing the bike around for a week, suddenly started riding it like a pro! A 4 year old should do just fine. If he is tall, take a look at the 16".

I would get the medium. I went up a size for "move room" and it's perfect. He'll also grow into it...hopefully it will still fit next year.

Since your child is almost four I would recommend the 4-6 size for her to room to grow in but overall you should go with the size based on her height rather then weight at this age. if she is smaller then average a 3-4 should fit fine but if average to taller the 4-6 would be better.

Medium is meant for 5"4 to 5"7 so medium is probably the best fit for him. I'm 16 and 5"11 yet I use medium because they're little and light and being the forward I want to be I think it's best but that's my opinion and one day it'll probably screw me over but yeah medium for a safe nice fit
