Having previously mastered things like bicycle riding, driving around on battery-powered vehicles, and zooming off on big-wheelers, the kids developed an interest in scooters after participating in a few mock races at a friend’s house. While I do have my own childhood scooter somewhere in the garage, we had been looking for modern versions that’d better fit each of the boys. Not too long into our search, I learned about Globber.
Globber products showcase the latest in early entry scooter design and function. Founded in France after many years of scooter research and experience, Globber hit the worldwide market in 2014 and is now available in North America.
When I was presented with the opportunity to try out the Globber products first hand, I was excited to be able to share yet another enthralling product development with my children. Initially, I was presented with the fabulous progression of the models geared toward younger children. Please allow me to introduce to you the Globber 3-Wheel Scooter.
With a steering lock button, adjustable handlebars and low foot rest, the Globber 3-Wheel Scooter is designed for the youngest riders.
The 3-Wheel Scooter is geared toward younger riders who are new to the sport. Setting a great foundation for learning to ride properly, the Globber 3-Wheel Scooter works best for ages 3 and up.
While my own children are already familiar with and capable of more advanced scooter riding, I love the features that are incorporated with the Globber 3-Wheel Scooter. You see, it is often the steering ability that comes later in the learning process and, with this particular scooter, you can opt for the use of the front deck’s Secure Direction Button Lock. Doing so will prevent the scooter and rider from making anything but simple turns and movements. I am a firm believer that all children would greatly benefit by gradually learning the basics before speeding off into the world. With that being said, my boys have already opted for the latter.
As time would have it and as everyone parent would attest to, kids just grow up entirely too quickly. While it still seems like it was just yesterday that they graced this world with their presence, they’ve already outgrown the introductory product from the Globber line. Thankfully, however, the amazing team behind the Globber brand has made sure to incorporate the very same stellar technological developments into their products geared toward older children.
In an increasingly digital world, Globber is here to redefine outdoor fun. On their scooters, kids can take back the neighborhood, connect with peers and neighbors, and stay active.
With my boys more than ready to redefine their own version of outdoor fun, they were beyond thrilled to learn that we would be testing out two of the Globber scooters. However, as opposed to the aforementioned 3-Wheel Scooter, we had the pleasure of trying out the Globber MY TOO Fixed Scooter and the MY TOO Folding Scooter and I could not be happier with them. Check it out!
MY TOO Fixed Scooter
This particular scooter, geared toward children ages 5 and up, was the perfect choice for our youngest. While he has already had some experience with varying 3-wheeled scooters in the past, he was ready to move up to something that allowed for a bit more freedom per say. As the younger one of our duo, he always wants to keep up with his big brother but the momma bear in me knows that he’s not quite ready for all of the bells and whistles just yet. For him, and for any child in this in-between stage, the Globber MY TOO Fixed Scooter is the perfect solution.
The Globber MY TOO Fixed Scooter is a high quality beginner scooter. Featuring a limited front steering mechanism for better control, a 120mm front wheel for more balance and a rigid, fixed steel frame for maximum support, the Globber MY TOO Fixed Scooter is everything you want in a beginner’s two-wheeled scooter.
After a few scoots up and down our driveway, we quickly realized that the Globber MY TOO Fixed Scooter truly was the perfect one for him. With its strong steel frame and durable handlebar grips, he felt comfortable not only on the scooter itself but also in his own ability to maneuver it. The non-slip foam that lines the base gave him an added confidence that easily translated into an insane amount of fun. Add to that the fact that this particular model is available in four vibrant colors and you’ve got a recipe for success and then some!
With the MY TOO Fixed Scooter weight rated for children up to 110-pounds and with an adjustable handlebar that extends from 74-centimeters (29-inches) to 84-centimeters (34-inches), it is an outstanding choice for riders who have graduated from the smaller starter scooters like the 3-Wheel Scooter but are not quite ready for a full-motion scooter.
Now, speaking of full-motion scooters, please allow me to introduce you to another one of the wonderful Globber products.
MY TOO Folding Scooter
Our older little guy seems to be a master of all trades. Having learned how to ride a bicycle sans training wheels before even entering preschool and having conquered just about everything on wheels thus far, he was ready to jump on and go. And go he did! With the Globber MY TOO Folding Scooter, he was able to take control of not only the scooter but of his own destiny.
Designed with teenagers and young adults in mind, the Globber MY TOO Folding Scooter is all you need to travel from school to the park and everywhere in between. Featuring a lightweight aluminum frame, wider handlebars for comfort and ultra smooth 100mm wheels for speed, the Globber MY TOO Folding Scooter is the perfect vehicle.
From a parent’s perspective, I’m equally glad to see that the Globber MY TOO Folding Scooter does have the included kickstand. Finally, no more toys strewn across the grass or haphazardly thrown to the ground! Best of all, I am so glad to see a product that will truly grow with him.
Regardless of your child’s current ability level or age, I highly recommend the Globber scooters if they, too, want to scoot their way into an amazingly fun summertime adventure.

I love the feature of the MY TOO Folding Scooter will easily last him thorough his teenage years and then some. It means more savings because I don’t need to buy him another one. I’m impressed how durable it is
One of my favorite features is the kickstand! I hate to see a bike or scooter being thrown down on the ground because it doesn’t have one. It makes the child take better care of it!
I like that they added a kick stand, I think this will make it last longer from not lying all over the ground or being thrown down.

I love the idea of a kickstand on the scooters! The scooter we currently have doesn’t have that and it will never stand up in the garage… it always falls over in the way.
I like that there is a kick stand now. Thank you for the entry
Love that it folds and has a kickstand! So cute!
I like that it folds and has a kick stand. I also like the three wheel scooter.
I love that it has 3 wheels, but I absolutely LOVE that it has a kickstand! It always frustrates me that the kids just toss theirs onto the cement.
I like the expanded weight limit on this…as the older styles didnt always carry some larger kids. This is so cool! How great to be folded away too! We had THREE kids using these all at once and oh boy they ended up scattered around the garage taking up space, usually falling down and busting through the handle bar padding. I have FIVE grandkids whom could all use this style now!
I like that it is foldable, because storage is very limited for us. Thank you for the chance.
I like the folding feature!
I like that it can be folded
I love the folding feature so when we go to the park we can carry it in the car easily!
My favorite feature is the kickstand which keeps the place clean and safe.
I think the fact that you can pack it up, the old scooters tend to be hard to fit in the car.
My sons had razor scooter they did not fold and storage was a pain. I like the folding feature.
The folding because you can take it anywhere
Definitely the way it folds. It’s different and more easy to carry than other scooter brands

I like the MY TOO Folding Scooter. It’s the one I think is the best looking.

I like that it folds and has a kickstand.
I love it’s adjustability and that it can grow with the child in both looks and functionality.
living with limited storage, i love that my daughter can ride, then fold, then carry back into the house for easy storing!
On the three-wheel scooter i love the steering lock button, adjustable handlebars and low foot rest.
I like the folding feature and the extendable handlebar–it might be usable for my daughter going from classroom to classroom at college–some of those buildings are fairly distant from each other!

i like the easy fold and carry! looks like its a little safer!
I like the idea of it folding. So many of the kids toys fill the garage.
I love that you can fold them up.
I like that it can stay with the kids both from the training stage to expert level.
I love the easy folding because we have very limited storage space and way too many large toys.
I have an eight year old and a five year old. Everything that the five year old sees the older one do, she wants to! I like the fact that Globber offers models for both riders, and that my daughter could learn to safely ride, and that they fold up.
I love that they’re foldable. It’s so hard to transport regular scooters.
I like the kickstand and I like that it folds. My sister moves a lot because they are a military so it’ll make it easy to transport.
