Kids Outdoor & Sports

Front and rear child bike seats for ages 1 to 8, chosen for how they mount, how secure the harness feels, and how they fit a real bike.

We tested kids bike helmets from toddler to teen sizes. Our picks cover first balance bikes, skate-park days and the budget buy that still fits.

From a 2.5-foot toddler stand to an 8.5-foot driveway goal, here are the kids basketball hoops we recommend and the age each one actually suits.

We tested folding, foam, adjustable, and modular beams to find the best for toddlers, beginners, and home gymnastics practice.

We tested eight backyard toys — water table, slide, swing, tunnel, chalk, and more — and picked the ones that earn their space in a real yard.
