Hover board = fun
I took our grandson to the park the other day and some boys had hover boards with them. Their grand father and I got to talking and they let Rhett try it out. He tried it on his knee's first a few times then I held his hand and he stood up and rode it.
All I herd on the way home was he wanted one! Imagine that... Well I went yesterday to Wal-Mart and got him one. He started riding it around 3pm, the rest is history, this 4 year old has mastered the thing in less than 24hrs! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a38e857jIcw

Re: Hover board = fun
Agreed. I've seen too many videos of adults busting their arses on those things. You could crack a skull very easy.

Yes he will be getting a helmet before he can ride it outside. We just wanted to make sure he could ride it before he gets all his gear. It's only good for 135lbs so no I want even try to ride it. I wouldn't anyway but that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. I walked in the house yesterday and he was riding it while looking at his tablet. He never missed a beat. But I finally stopped him and told him no more riding and doing something else. It was cool he could but I know what can happen so it want happen anymore while I'm watching him ride anyway.
