I'll have to take a look at the Giro helmets in stores too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bike-helmets#post-1542655 Thu, 03 Apr 2014 11:59:36 +0000 brownie 1542655@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Giro from Amazon. Most of the stores we have access to (Walmart, Target) don't have helmets for under 3 years old. He loves his helmet and we have had it for a year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bike-helmets#post-1542634 Thu, 03 Apr 2014 11:55:29 +0000 purrpletulips 1542634@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both DD and DS have Belkin helmets. DD's is going on two years without any problems. I bought DS' on sale last year when he was too young to use it but it was too good a deal to pass up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bike-helmets#post-1541366 Thu, 03 Apr 2014 01:44:42 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1541366@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: That's awesome! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bike-helmets#post-1540460 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 15:46:15 +0000 sunny 1540460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would just make sure it fits properly otherwise it doesn't offer very much protection. It shouldn't wiggle once it is on his head. He should be able to shake his head without it moving around.</p> <p>We got ours from REI on sale. We have a Giro that can be adjusted as her head grows. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bike-helmets#post-1540425 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 15:39:44 +0000 lamariniere 1540425@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bought a Giro from amazon and it fit very well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bike-helmets#post-1540196 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 14:39:55 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1540196@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bought one at the local bike store - I would have to check the brand! I wanted one that he could try one so that I'd be sure to get the right size. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bike-helmets#post-1540177 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 14:36:00 +0000 Mamaof2 1540177@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SugarplumsMom: Target has them for 19.99 - 22.99 as the average price.</p> <p>The ones I found on amazon were also ~$20</p> <p>This was the one my DS picked out - have had it for 2 years now - he loves it! </p> [attach=4342/14/n3f587.410x410.14511467_130320024342.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bike-helmets#post-1540166 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 14:33:33 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1540166@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're shopping for a helmet, too! My plan was to go to the store and let LO try them on, but I'm seriously considering buying a cheap one on Amazon. I'll look into more expensive ones for when she's really mobile. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bike-helmets#post-1540126 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 14:23:09 +0000 yin 1540126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks! I think I'll swing by Target this week with LO to have him pick one out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bike-helmets#post-1540037 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 13:56:27 +0000 Mamaof2 1540037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took my DS to Target and let him pick one out - I guess I assumed they were all the same and provided head protection - regardless of cost. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bike-helmets#post-1540027 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 13:54:40 +0000 HLK208 1540027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We went to REI to have a helmet fitted for DS. It was kind of spendy though.</p> <p>I probably wouldn't do wrist guards or knee pads unless it was for roller blades or a skateboard. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bike-helmets#post-1540010 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 13:50:16 +0000 yin 1540010@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm thinking about getting DS1 a balance bike for his birthday. Does anyone have recommendations for helmets? Should I also buy wrist guards and knee pads? </p>
