Top Trike - Our Favourite Trikes!
Jun 05, 2025
We're really excited to introduce our new Top Trike range. These are very robust and carefully designed trikes, made especially for children with different abilities, and for early learning environments. Several models in the range have been awarded the prestigious Spiel Gut seal - a trusted recognition in Europe for toys that support healthy child development through quality design and meaningful play.
Top Trike - Helping Kids Move with Confidence
Top Trike offers a range of high-quality, durable ride-on vehicles and outdoor play equipment designed to support gross motor skill development, coordination, and imaginative play.
Built with sturdy frames, ergonomic designs, and safety features, Top Trike products support gross motor skill development, balance, and coordination while encouraging active outdoor play.
Learning to ride a trike is often a child’s first experience with self-directed movement. It takes effort and practice, and every small success - like figuring out how to push forward or steer around an obstacle - builds confidence.
Top Trikes help children strengthen their legs, develop coordination, and gain a better sense of balance and body awareness. These are essential physical skills they’ll use every day - whether it’s climbing stairs, jumping, or eventually learning to ride a bike.
For toddlers just starting out, something simple and low to the ground like the Top Trike Little Driver Ride On or Quaddy is ideal. As they grow, many children transition to the Little Walker or Little Balancer, which helps them build balance without the complexity of pedals.
And if they’re not quite ready for a bike, the Mini Rolly Scooter is a great alternative - supporting balance and movement with a fun, foot-powered design.

Supporting Emotional Growth Through Movement
Physical and emotional development often go hand in hand. As children master riding, they gain more than just strength - they build confidence, resilience, and independence. Being able to steer and move on their own gives them a sense of control and accomplishment, especially when they’re learning through repetition and at their own pace.
Riding a bike also gives children the chance to make decisions, take small risks, and recover from mistakes - all essential parts of early learning. When they’re ready for the next step, a pedal-powered option like the Top Trike Little Cruiser or Rookie offers just the right level of challenge.

Top Trike Carousel Spinner: A Movement Tool with a Purpose
Not all children engage with movement the same way, and for some, spinning can be especially beneficial. The Top Trike Turning Table is more than just a fun ride - it’s often used in therapy settings to support children with sensory processing challenges, Autism, ADHD, or motor delays.
It supports gross motor development, bilateral coordination, and vestibular input through its spinning motion, which engages both sides of the body and strengthens core and upper body muscles. The resistance from turning provides calming proprioceptive feedback, helping with sensory regulation. Additionally, it encourages social interaction, cooperation, and turn-taking, making it ideal for use in occupational therapy, early intervention, and inclusive play environments.
Another great spinning option is the Carousel Outdoor Portable Spinner, which allows multiple children to spin together using hand and body coordination - making it ideal for group sensory play, turn-taking, and upper-body strength building.
Spinning stimulates the vestibular system, which helps with balance, body awareness, and coordination. It can also support sensory regulation - some children find spinning calming, while others use it to release excess energy. The Carousel’s low, stable design makes it safe for young users, and its portable size means it works just as well in a therapy room as it does in a backyard.
In group settings, it also encourages turn-taking and cooperative play, helping children build social skills in a natural, play-based way.
A Practical Choice for Homes and Centres
One of the reasons Top Trike products are so trusted by educators and families is their durability. They’re designed to handle daily use in Australian conditions, whether that’s under the sun at home or in a busy early learning centre.
The Top Trike Pillion Taxi and Taxi Tandem allow children to ride together, encouraging social interaction and teamwork. The Wheelbarrow, with its push-and-pull dynamic, is also popular in childcare environments where roleplay and collaboration are encouraged.
Each product in the range is built with strong steel frames, solid wheels, and ergonomic designs that support both safety and comfort.
Tips for Getting Started:
If you’re introducing a trike for the first time, start with something simple and supportive. Choose a model based on your child’s age and ability, and create a safe space where they can explore at their own pace. Supervised outdoor areas, smooth surfaces, and a bit of encouragement go a long way.
Remember, children don’t need fancy gadgets or overstimulating screens to grow. What they need are open-ended, active toys that meet them where they are - supporting their physical, emotional, and sensory development without pressure.
A trike may look simple, but it gives children space to build confidence, strength, and joy in their own movement.
