Fisher Price My First Skates

Pros
  • Wide wheels are more stable
  • Adjustable boots fit over shoes
  • Wheels can be locked
Cons
  • Not appropriate for older kids
 
 
 
 

What makes Fisher Price My First Skates appropriate for toddlers is that their wheels don't have a narrow edge, making them more like rollers. Also, the back wheels are set well apart, like the training wheels on a bike. The boot of these skates splits in the middle so the size can be adjusted to fit over a toddler's shoe, and parents have the ability to lock the wheels so they can't roll backwards. The girls' version has a Barbie design, while the boys' version comes in red. If you're looking for inline skates for older kids, reviewers praise K2 Marlee for girls and Raider for boys (*est. $60).
