Yes! Kids can use the Tovie bike by itself. The Tovie Pedal-to-Play Ecosystem is there as an option for children who need entertainment to stay interested long enough to get the physial and neurological benefits of using the product.
The Tovie bike is designed for kids ages 7-11, but kids develop on their own schedule. The product height offers the best experience for kids whose hip-to-foot length is between X and X inches long. You can also adjust the height of the product depending on your chair and your child’s height. Since users will sit on a regular chair or couch while pedaling, user weight should not be a concern.
The bike is X x X x X.
No, Tovie is a floor cycle that uses a bike-style pedalling motion. This accommodates different levels of user balance and stability, and helps Tovie fit easily into the home or classroom.
Tovie was designed to make bike-style pedalling more accessible for kids who are working on their balance or core strength. If either of these are a challenge for your child, the flexibility of using your favorite chair while using the product could make pedalling physically easier for your child. Consult with a pediatrician or occupational therapist, especially if you are concerned about your child using the product safely.
It is up to the school/ teacher’s preference, but the Tovie bike was designed to be able to fit under tables and provide minimal distractions to other students. If the product is used in Quiet Mode, it will not emit sounds or flashing lights while in use. If taking your Tovie into the classroom is not an option, ask your school if they can place one in their Sensory Room, counselor’s office, or other spaces dedicated to wellness or sensory regulation.
The Tovie base is sturdy to provide a secure and safe base for your child to pedal.
Tovie’s first shipment will be arriving in June of 2027. However, you must place your order by October 23rd to reserve a unit from this first shipment.
