MINI-MICRO SCOOTER WINS GOLD …
The Mini-Micro scooter won a prestigious Gold Award at the NATLL Good Toy Awards on Monday 18th June 2007 in the UK. In its category of Outdoor and Large Play, the mini-micro outshone all competitors to scoop the top prize.
In the UK, the mini-micro is the success story for Micro Scooters Ltd, set up by two mothers in London, Anna Gibson and Philippa Gogarty in 2004. It was initially sold around the country by a network of mums and is now stocked in stores nationwide, including John Lewis and the Early Learning Centre. “We are thrilled that the mini micro scooter has won this prize. It proves what we all know, that the scooter really is a must for every child under the age of 6 years,” say Anna and Philippa.
The mini-micro is manufactured by The Swiss company Micro Mobility Systems to the same exacting technology and standards as its older sibling, the world famous Micro Scooter. With two wheels at the front and made from reinforced plastic, the scooter is light-weight and ideal for younger children to develop their balance and coordination. Designed to literally surf the pavements, the school run has never been so stress-free.
The “mini-micro” is suitable for 3-6 year olds.
RRP £40

Just finished a days scooting around Blenhiem Palace's tracks. My 4 and 18 month old on micro's, my wife on a kick board and me on on an old skateboard. The amount of smiles and waves we recieved convinces me that micro's should be compulsory for ALL children. I don't think my boys have ever had so much fun. Pete ( age 43 )
