I have seen clear plexiglass/lexan shields fitted to the swingarm to keep junior's feet from being caught in the wheel.

That is the law here. They have to be able to reach the pegs.

I put my son on the bike for the first time this summer right before his 4th birthday, I started it up, put it in first and walked him across the parking lot, he sat behind me the whole time and yelled faster faster while he bounced around. its cool that he wants to ride, but the bouncing was a definate sign that he isnt ready. Although I regularly put both of them on the mini bike and push them, my daughter keeps putting her feet down so I wont start the engine, once she gets used to the brakes I might turn it on for her.
