In addition to several colorfully fanciful designs--including yellow chicks, aviator pigs, pink bunnies, and red duck and goose--the helmet features 20 vents (protected with a built-in bug net) to help to keep your child's head cool. It also features Giro's Mini-Loc fit system with simple strap guides that enable your kid to put on the helmet without pinching skin. There's soft padding inside that feels great and a built-in visor for a bit of shade. This helmet is adjustable, enabling it to grow with your child. It's sized for infants and toddlers with heads measuring 18.75 to 20.5 inches in diameter.



20 vents with built-in bug netting keep your child's head cool.


Giro's Mini-Loc fit system features simple strap guides.

Fitting a Helmet
Here are some guidelines to getting the best fit for a bike helmet.

  • Eyes: The rim of the helmet should be up to 1 to 2 finger widths above the eyebrows
  • Ears: The straps should form a V under just beneath the ear lobe
  • Mouth: When the rider opens her mouth, the buckle should feel snug on the chin and the helmet should hug the head
Before using the helmet, stand in front of the mirror and grab the helmet with both hands and twist it to the left and to the right. If the helmet fits right, the skin on the forehead will move as the helmet moves. If it does not, then the helmet is too loose and is unsafe for use and you need to start over.

About Giro
Working late nights in his garage, designer/bike racer Jim Gentes created the first lightweight adult cycling helmet in 1985. Friends at NASA helped tune the final helmet shape and vent placement, and the result was the Giro Prolight, a helmet that was better looking than traditional designs while offering a superior fit and still met the industry's toughest safety standards. Plus, it was half the weight of traditional helmets. Since then, Giro has advanced its helmets, many of which have set the standards for styling, function, and innovation for progressive, performance-oriented riders on dirt, pavement, and snow. Giro helmets are worn by millions of riders, cyclists, skiers, and snowboarders around the world. Young-bloods and old-timers; hard-cores, heshers, and hipsters; rookies, experts, and a few regular Joes too--in fact, pretty musch anyone that appreciates superior fit and function, cutting edge styling, and the very best ideas you get in a helmet.

5 out of 5 stars Cute and Top Quality, Too   September 19, 2008
I thought the duck was adorable and it fits well. The first time fitting it and putting it on was a bear, but now that my little guy associates it with going on a ride, we have no trouble. I would buy it again.


5 out of 5 stars really nice fit   September 14, 2008

We started on the smallest setting and it was perfect.We will be able to use this helmet for quite awhile
It is light wieght and has a really nice clasp

I really like this helmet



4 out of 5 stars HELMET FOR ONE YEAR OLD   August 11, 2008
THIS HELMET FITS OUR SON AND HE DOESN'T HATE IT, BUT HATES WEARING HATS OF ANY KIND. WE WERE HAPPY TO FIND THIS HELMET AS WE ARE READY TO TAKE HIM OUT FOR HIS FIRST BIKE RIDE.


4 out of 5 stars Very good buy   August 9, 2008
This is the only helmet that I could find that would fit my 12 month old. It fits her very well. All of the other helmets would fall right off. It is a struggle to get on. She doesn't sit still long enough for me to adjust it. When I hook it I almost get hre chin caught in it. The only thing is that I wish it were easier to put on and ajust. It still is a very good purchase. Once the helmet is on it works very well.


5 out of 5 stars great adjustable helmet   July 14, 2008

Giro helmets are the best! I have 3 kids and have tried different helmets. No other brand offers the custom fit that giro does. the helmet grows with the kids' heads. there is a dial inside to expand & contract the fit. do it. buy this now. "Yellow chicks" looks less 'feminine' in person. I confidently put it on my son. the Pink Bunnies rocks for Girls!
