Why Parents Can't Stop Talking About woom

8/8/2024

Many of life's best experiences are uncovered through word of mouth, and woom bikes are no exception. Whether it’s by visiting the local park or chatting with fellow parents, woom bikes seem to keep coming up in the conversation. Designed with kids in mind, woom bikes are about more than just riding—they're about creating lasting memories, fostering independence, and staying active together. Join us as we explore the heartwarming stories of three families who have made woom bikes a part of their daily lives.

Endless Fun with the Kennedys

When Kelsey Kennedy discovered woom bikes through a friend, she was amazed. She couldn’t believe her eyes: a tiny two-year-old balancing and already riding effortlessly! Inspired to get her own little one moving, she got a woom bike for her older son, Milo, who was two at the time. While Milo wasn’t immediately interested, he soon found his passion for riding, and quickly mastered balance and steering.

Now, the Kennedy family enjoys daily rides to their neighborhood pool. Kelsey loves how the bikes are perfectly designed for little hands and how easily her boys, Milo (4) and Dayton (2), have learned to steer and ride. “It’s just an easy ‘yes’ for me because the bikes are perfectly designed for them at the age they’re at,” she says.

Kelsey appreciates the durability and longevity of her kids’ woom bikes. “It’s just so fun to invest in an item that I know my kids will use for years.” Unlike many toys that get discarded after a few months, woom bikes can be handed down, sent to friends, or resold, making them a great investment piece.

Her advice to parents? “Start them as young as you can!” She should know. Her younger son, Dayton, started much earlier than his brother thanks to Milo’s influence, and is already a confident rider at just 2 years old.

Kelsey knows well the importance of staying active for both mental and physical health and is grateful woom bikes have kept her kids moving.

“They don’t know this yet…but when you move your body and stay healthy and active, it just helps every single aspect of life. But all they know right now is that it’s just fun!”


Evening Rides and Laughter with the Chiezas

Mother of three Chalimar Chieza has found pure joy and connection with her kids through their woom bikes. From the moment she discovered woom, going on evening rides with Ruby (8), Solo (6), and Zeke (4) became a treasured family tradition.

"I love riding with the kids in the evening," Chalimar shares. "It's the perfect way for them to work off their food and get tired before bedtime." Their rides are filled with laughter, discovery, and bonding.

While it’s not all laughs and smiles, even the challenging moments are filled with growth. “When we were riding earlier, Zeke fell… but he could pick his bike up himself and he’s only 4 years old. I think it creates not only autonomy; it feels safe for them,” Chalimar reflects, while noting how exceptionally lightweight woom bikes are.

Another moment that stands out is when Ruby, at just six years old, assembled her own bike using the step-by-step instructions provided in the box. These sorts of hands-on experiences have empowered the Chieza kids and given them a sense of independence and resilience.

For the Chieza family, being outside and staying active is a way of life. "We want them to grow up the way we did, riding bikes, getting dirty, being outside," Chalimar says.


Exploring Austin with the Sadauskas Family

Once Nina Sadauskas first heard about woom bikes through her network of other moms, she couldn’t help but notice more and more kids zooming around on them in her Austin neighborhood. Intrigued by the rave reviews, she decided to get one for her older son, Lukas, who was 3 at the time.

Nina was amazed by how quickly Lukas mastered riding his woom 2 without training wheels. “Literally 5 minutes later, he was already riding without help wheels,” she shares. The lightweight design made it hassle-free for Nina to carry the bike when Lukas inevitably needed a break, and it made biking an enjoyable experience for the whole family.

Now, Lukas, 4, loves riding around their Austin neighborhood and exploring places like Walnut Creek Park and Ladybird Lake. The durable design of the woom 2 ensures they can continue these adventures for years to come, especially with the addition of baby Vincent who’s tagging along in a stroller for now.

“Being able to see Lukas ride with such ease is amazing,” Nina says. As a busy parent, she appreciates how woom bikes make outdoor activities effortless and enjoyable.

For Nina, investing in woom bikes means investing in her children’s physical and mental well-being. “Exploring nature and staying active helps kids thrive,” she explains. “Hard is good,” she adds with a chuckle, knowing that overcoming challenges like biking up a hill will benefit her kids in the long run.
