I don’t like to begin my posts with anything other than happiness, but today I can’t.
A few weeks ago a boy in my area died while skateboarding. He fell backwards and hit his head on the curb – and he wasn’t wearing a helmet.
Tragic cases such as this one remind me how fragile and precious our children’s heads are. We don’t want to – and shouldn’t – prevent our kids from taking part in activities such as riding their bikes and trikes, skateboarding, roller blading, waterskiing, snowboarding – whatever turns them on! In this day and age of virtual entertainment it’s ever more important to get them out into the fresh air, doing physical activity and having fun.
However, we must keep them safe while they’re enjoying these activities, and that’s where helmets come in. Most helmets, unfortunately, are pretty uninspiring to look, at and kids just don’t want to wear them, so it’s a never ending battle for safety-conscious parents.
Luckily I’ve found Nutcase – www.nutcasehelmets.com.au – who make *the* coolest helmets for under-fives, for older kids and for teenagers. They have ranges especially designed for watersports, for snow sports, for ‘street cool’ and for toddlers & preschoolers with the ‘Little Nutty’ range.
All their helmets comply with Australian and worldwide safety standards, and best of all they look so freakin’ cool that kids actually want to wear them!
I especially love the Little Nutty ones – aren’t they adorable! My little guy is going to look so cute on his trike wearing one of these.
