The Little Boards “Cartoon” complete skateboard is specially designed for children. Materials & quality are just like the big boards, only smaller. True to the motto “real skateboards for real kids.” So, it’s a real 7-ply board with a nice concave and soft trucks. The setup is designed to make it easier for kids to start rolling and provide a real skateboarding experience. Soft skateboard wheels in 85a ensure sufficient grip while riding quietly and comfortably.
If a child stands on a large adult skateboard, their foot stance is far too wide. With legs spread too far apart, not only does the stance become unstable, affecting balance, but turning by shifting weight is almost impossible—especially since the trucks are much too hard. Attempting a first “Ollie” quickly leads to frustration.
That’s why the children's skateboards from “Little Boards” are smaller in proportion and adapted to the needs of kids. The boards are available in: 6.5“ x 26” - for very young skaters up to about 5 years old, and 7“ x 28.25” - for kids up to about 8 years old.

Little Boards Skateboards has made it its mission to build professional skateboards for children. They use the same Canadian wood and deck shapes as the larger professional skateboards. They're just a bit smaller, in child-friendly sizes. There's a lot on the market that calls itself a children's skateboard, but is actually useless junk. Plastic wheels that barely turn, clunky boards made of 9-ply Chinese birch. That's cheap - yes, but it's not a skateboard.
Little Boards skateboards for children are equipped with IMAPCT trucks in the appropriate size and-tested ball bearings, and genuine, soft Urthan wheels. And because the boards are so good, they are our recommendation for children ages 3-8. More information about sizes and quality can be found on the Little Boards Children's Skateboards website.
