Looking for a second-hand Frog bike for your child? Buying a pre-loved Frog bike can be a smart, sustainable choice for growing kids. In this guide, we’ll show you where to find used Frog bikes, how to check their condition, and tips for buying safely.
As parents, we’re always thinking ahead, buying bigger shoes, slightly oversized coats, and school uniforms with “room to grow.” It’s a smart way to save money over time. But when it comes to children’s bikes, buying one that’s “a bit big for now” is not the best idea.
At Frog Bikes, we’re committed to reducing our environmental impact through practical actions. Our bikes are made with responsibly sourced aluminium, and our packaging is designed to be recyclable and to reduce waste. We’ve also improved our manufacturing processes to make them more energy-efficient. Choosing a Frog bike means supporting a company that’s actively working toward more sustainable practices with real steps you can track.
As kids grow, so do their ambitions for outdoor fun and exploration. Whether they’re embarking on their first pedal-powered adventure or gearing up for longer rides, choosing the best bike for kids is key to ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience.
Every parent knows how quickly kids grow, and with that growth comes the need to update everything from shoes to clothes, and, of course, kids’ bikes! Finding the best bike for growing children can be a challenge, but Frog Bikes has revolutionised the way families approach this issue. Our innovative designs, lightweight frames, and adjustable features make it easier than ever to transition to the next size bike as your child grows.
As the days get longer and the weather warms up again, spring is the perfect time to encourage kids to step away from indoor activities, such as spending a lot of time in front of screens, and instead embrace the great outdoors. At Frog Bikes, we know the value of fresh air, physical activity, and family adventures. Here are six fun, screen-free ways to keep your kids entertained this season.
There’s no better way to enjoy the beauty of spring than by cycling together as a family. Whether it’s a ride through your local park, a nature trail, or planning a trip further away from your home, biking keeps kids active and engaged, while providing numerous health benefits for the whole family. Plan a spot for a packed picnic for the whole family, explore new routes in your county and make it a memorable family outing by capturing special moments with photos.
Encourage your kids to set small cycling goals, such as reaching a landmark, completing a certain distance or any other challenge that you can think of. Get inspired by our Fun & Games page and start planning your next cycling trip as a family to welcome the sun back. You can also bring a nature journal to document interesting sights along the ride and challenge your kids. This is a great way to welcome the sunshine, spend a sustainable Saturday together, and enjoy a healthy, environmentally friendly activity. There are no excuses, Winter is over and even though springtime can be unpredictable, even in the rain a cycling tour is great for the entire family to enjoy.
Transform your garden, local park, or nearby woods into an adventure zone for your children! Use cones, ropes, hula hoops, and even natural elements like logs or stones to design an exciting obstacle course and add games to it. Enhance the experience by incorporating fun challenges, games, and cycling elements to build confidence and improve bike handling skills and most importantly, celebrate your kids' learning experiences and track their improvements together as a family.
Encourage your kids to complete the course as quickly as possible or introduce creative variations, such as weaving between obstacles, or balancing with one hand in the air. This activity is perfect for beginners learning to ride their first pedal bike or balance bike, as well as for experienced, adventure-loving kids on their MTBs. It’s a great way to develop coordination, build confidence, and most importantly, have fun!
Encourage kids to explore the outdoors more and engage with nature through a fun scavenger hunt. Our Fun & Games page offers great activity sheets to help your kids complete challenges while becoming more aware of their outdoor surroundings. You can also create a list of spring-themed items such as blooming flowers, buzzing bees, bird nests, or even different shades of Frog green. Then, take a walk or let your kids hop on their Frog bikes to see how many they can find this spring! This activity is a great way to inspire curiosity, observation skills, and a love for the outdoors.
Combine biking and hiking for the ultimate outdoor experience. Choose a scenic route on your Hybrid or MTB, for example and cycle to a picturesque destination such as a forest, lake, or nature reserve. Once you arrive, park your bikes and set off on foot to explore the area.

Encourage your kids to observe wildlife, listen to birdsong, and look for interesting natural treasures like pinecones, unique stones, or different types of leaves. Bring along a small notebook so they can sketch what they find or jot down observations.
Take regular breaks to enjoy a snack or picnic in a beautiful setting, making the most of the fresh air and peaceful surroundings. This adventure is not only a fantastic way to boost fitness and endurance but also helps kids develop an appreciation for nature, navigation skills, and a sense of adventure. Whether it’s a short excursion or an all-day journey, a bike-and-hike trip promises plenty of fun and discovery!
Spring is also a fantastic time to introduce kids to the joys of gardening. After a long bike ride, the fun of planting flowers, herbs, or vegetables is another great activity in spring. Let your children choose their own seeds and get their hands dirty in the soil, which fosters a sense of ownership and responsibility for their environment. As they nurture their plants and watch them grow, they'll develop patience and an appreciation for the environment.
Gardening is not only a relaxing and rewarding hobby but also an opportunity to teach kids about sustainability. Encourage eco-friendly habits by using rainwater for watering, composting food scraps, and avoiding chemical pesticides. You can even link gardening to other sustainable actions, such as cycling to school instead of driving and cooking healthy, homegrown meals together as a family. Add more sustainable habits to your family routine and enjoy them together. These small steps help kids understand the importance of caring for nature while making fun, lasting memories outdoors.
With so many exciting screen-free activities to try, spring is the perfect season for kids to get outside, stay active, and have fun with family. Whether you’re cycling with Frog bikes or gardening, these activities create lasting memories and encourage a love for the outdoors.
So, grab your Frog bikes, put your helmets on and make this spring an adventure-filled season with your family!
