  Bike helmet for babies May 16, 2008 It was really hard to find a helmet that would fit my son's head. He is 19 months and this helmet is the only one I could find that would come close to fitting. It is still a little big and the straps are kind of confusing to me. I think it will fit him better as he grows. But it works and is confortable on his head. He hates wearing hats or anything on his head and this doesn't bother him at all.
  Helmet Great for Youngins May 9, 2008 This helmet is great. My son is 20 months, would have fit him at 16, or less? Great small size strong product. Like it.
  Versatile adjustment for infants May 5, 2008 12 out of 12 found this review helpful
I read a lot of different reviews for bike helmets including those of a well-known national consumer's group magazine. Our local sporting goods store has an array of helmets for kids age 3 and up, but just try and find one for an infant/toddler. Amazon's reviews were very helpful and I finally narrowed the choice down to the Bell Boomerang and the Giro Me2. Both were rated well, but the feature that got my vote for the Giro was the adjustable fit system. With just the twist of a knob (located at the rear of the helmet), the inside strap that encircles the infant's head can be tightened or loosened for a custom fit. This is particularly useful when dealing with an infant who is new to wearing a bike helmet, and therefore resistant to putting it on and fiddling too long with strap adjustments. Giro also includes some extra stick-on foam pads to help provide extra cushion and a good fit. I had the most difficulty finding the right position for the chinstrap. But I suspect with any brand helmet, it would take some finesse to cajole your infant while making the proper adjustment. My son, who is 10 months old, did not like it when I fastened the clip, but once we were on the bike, he loved it and totally forgot about wearing the helmet. I'm well satisfied with this purchase, plus with Amazon's free shipping, it was a good deal.
  We love it!!! April 29, 2008 This helmet is perfect for my petite 2 year old daughter. She loves the cute duck theme and doesn't fuss too much when we put it on.We use this with the WeeRide Kangaroo child bike seat and it works well. Because she is so small, the helmet seems a little bulky but I guess that is for safety purposes. All in all, we love it and would definitely buy it again.
  Good helmet April 19, 2008 I like this helmet. It seemed to be a good price compared to some of the other helmets I priced out. Sometimes it does slide down over my daughter's eyes, but I think that is because it may still be a tad big for her. Overall, I definitely would recommed this product to anyone looking for an infant helmet!
