A bicycle helmet is more than just a cute accessory. They are important safety equipment for cyclists of all ages. Engineers designed helmets to prevent skull fractures and serious injuries. Each helmet should meet the quality standards set by the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).

When choosing a helmet, finding the right size and fit is your top priority-then you can consider a variety of colors and cute styles. To find the best helmet for your child, please continue reading.

It is relatively easy to determine whether your child's helmet is worn correctly. If it fits snugly and does not move left or right or back and forth, it should fit well. If the helmet moves around, it may be too large. The loose style is less effective in protecting your child from collisions or falls.

If you are not sure what size helmet your child should wear, you can use a rope and a tape measure to determine. Take the rope and gently wrap it around the child's forehead. Then, match the rope to your tape measure and you should be able to know the circumference of your child's head. This measurement will help you determine what size helmet your child needs.

The size range of children's helmets is 45 cm-57 cm before being converted to adult size. Do not buy a helmet that your child can grow, unless it is an adjustable size helmet. There are many helmets that can be provided with additional padding or adjusted as the child grows.

Bicycle helmets can usually last for 5 to 10 years, but depending on your child's age, they may grow out earlier than this. However, if any part of the helmet is lost or damaged, it is better to replace it instead of using a faulty helmet.

The helmet designed by the helmet engineer can withstand an impact. Therefore, if your child spills a serious spill from the bicycle and hits his head on the ground, be sure to change the helmet before they ride the bicycle again.
