Woom 1 Original Kids Balance Bike (12")
Now a Good Housekeeping Parenting 2024 Awards Winner - The First Time on Two Wheels
The Woom 1 introduces kids to the fun world of cycling. This balance bike is designed to enable toddlers to easily hop on and roll away, learning how to steer, balance, and stop before pedals are introduced.
