Scooter-Friendly Spots & Tracks For Kids In Hong Kong

Take Your Kids To The Best Scooting Areas In Town

scooter-friendly spots and tracks for kids in hong kong

Getting your kids a scooter in Hong Kong has become a rising trend over the last few years. A good scooter can help a kid learn to balance, turn, and brake which will easily also help with the transition when it’s time to learn how to ride a bike. Finding the perfect space outdoors (a flat paved area is a bonus!) is also the next tricky bit. Little Steps has compiled the most recommended areas in the city on where you can take your bundles of energy out for a scooting day.
