Hello all

I'm sure this has been covered many times but the search function now appears to be pants

My 2yo girl is getting on really well with her balance bike

I'm trying to find some suitable gloves to give a bit of protection when she falls off.
Coming into summer now so rain and cold less of a concern.

They don't necessarily need to be bike specific ones, but most kiddy shops only sell woolly ones or huge winter mittens. Most bike ones don't go small enough.

Anyone found anything suitable?

Look at goal keeping gloves - they do small sizes and they have palm protection without being too bulky.

My daughter has some snazzy Specialized ones. Small enough for toddlers.

Fox dirt paws come in tiny tiny sizes, they're what my nippers wore for runner bike use.

Dirt Paws seconded. Pretty sure mine had them from about that age.

Plus they look Moto!

Awesome cheers for the suggestions, I'm pretty excited about how she's progressing, won't be long until I've got a new riding buddy

We have some little endura ones, which now our daughter can put them on herself, are great.

Beware, it's a mission in itself just to get their fingers in the right place (with a reasonable chance of ending in a tantrum or refusal to wear them at all).
Until she is using the brakes, you might be easiest with some kind of thin mits rather than gloves with fingers.
