IMPORTANT! It is a good practice to start training
children very young regarding the importance of helmet
use. When children are older and riding bicycles and
faster vehicles, it is important that they use a helmet
each and every time they ride. For this reason, even
while riding a tricycle, it is a good idea to familiarize
your child with helmet use, so that it becomes a habit
for life. Choose a helmet that complies with requirements
of the applicable certifying agency for bicycle helmets.
