Frog Bikes Cycling Accessories Review

The other day, we were sent some Frog Bikes Cycling Accessories for a review. Ethan was more than happy to give a review of this. He was ecstatic!

Ethan was a very keen biker from a very young age. He didn’t have a scooter like the other children have. A balance bike was what he received for his second birthday gift. It didn’t take long for this little guy zoom away so fast I was breathless chasing him. He then had a bigger balance bike. Then a normal bike with a stabilisers and eventually took them off in May this year. Whenever there were sunshine and dry sunny day outside he always insisted hopping on his bike. I don’t blame him, I wish I could too. But I had to push Evelyn in her buggy. I don’t trust myself on a bike with little one on the back seat.

So yes, Safety is key.

During the Summer holiday we’ve been practising our bike ride to his school. So that when the time come he would not be in panic rush about it. You can read all about it here: Our Summer Cycling Forest Adventure. I have to say, this method has worked up to a certain extend. I noticed that on our way back home he would be a little tired and a little tantrum would occurred. My worst fear is that he would slipped himself onto the road by accident and would not be seem by passing vehicles. I showed him our little sort-cut routes to avoid big traffic and to always look left and right, and double check again for the traffic before he crosses the road with me. Road safety rules are so important. Frog Bikes have an extensive range of cycling accessories to give parents a little peace of mind by offering safety gears that is cool and funky for the kids to wear. I received a Team Sky Rucksack (£28), Team Sky Rucksack Cover (£16), and a Mini Hornit (£20 £15). This may be a bit much, but wait for it.

Team Sky Rucksack

The rucksacks has many compartments to it: a waterproof bag insert inside so that your kid can keep dirty things in such as the PE Kit for example. A small zipper pocket at the back for hiding anything valuable such as money, jewellery, and mobile phone (not that Ethan needs any of these right now of-course). But the rucksack is well made to a high quality. I could see that this will last him for years. At this point, I could see Ethan is inspecting the bag thoroughly imagining his things inside the bag already.

Team Sky Rucksack Cover

On top of this is the waterproof rucksack cover, (not pun intended). By chance the other day, there was a down pour of torrential rain. I can say that the cover works well. It kept the rucksack bone dry underneath. It was great as I won’t have to worry about his homework getting wet. Plus the rucksack come with flashing lights. It lit up Ethan’s eyes and he wanted to have a go at switching them on and off and to different rhythms. This is ideal in keeping him safe and been visible when it get dark outside.

Mini Hornit…

is such a cool invention. The head light changes colour from white to green and flashes in a variety of rhythm. Ethan also loves playing around with the different sounds it makes, (25 in fact!). You can adjust the noise level, but I rather have it loud so that he can definitely be heard from afar when out cycling.
