What is the function of the small wheels at the front of a wiggle car?

The small wheels at the front of a wiggle car are designed to prevent collisions when the ground is uneven. Precautions for riding a wiggle car: Ride on flat surfaces; control the speed of the wiggle car; regularly check if the wheels, frame, etc., of the wiggle car are loose; minimize the use of legs to propel the wiggle car; avoid letting children ride the wiggle car in dangerous areas like roadsides. Concept of a wiggle car: A wiggle car, also known as a fitness and entertainment vehicle, does not require charging, fuel, winding, or pedaling. It moves simply by shaking the steering wheel left and right. Its driving principle is based on centrifugal force and curved force laws, enabling free movement without the need for electricity, fuel, or spring drives. It combines environmental friendliness, entertainment, and fitness into one.
When my child was playing with the wiggle car, I specifically studied those two front wheels. They actually form the steering system - by twisting their body left and right, kids can control the direction without needing a handlebar. The dual-wheel design provides exceptional stability, making it hard for even toddlers just learning to walk to tip over. Once I saw a three-year-old riding downhill in our neighborhood - when the front wheels hit a stone, the child didn't fall, whereas single-wheel balance bikes often lead to spills. There's good reason why current child safety standards require this three-wheel configuration. The front wheelbase perfectly fits between children's legs, allowing them to touch the ground by simply bending over, making it much safer than scooters.
