An extension or towing handle for use with a child's scooter or other children's mechanical, wheeled vehicles, with a rigid, extension handle that affixes to the horizontal handlebar of the children's mechanical, wheeled vehicle by a clamshell-shaped plastic moulding, a metal bracket and various nuts and bolts, or by U-shaped bolts, a bracket and a back plate, or by a bracket. The handle may alternatively be somewhat flexible rather than entirely rigid, and may be telescopic. The handle pivots for a wide, vertical range of motion, to enable comfortable towing by an accompanying adult when in a raised position, as well as stowing in a lowered position when not in use. The handle has little or no horizontal range of motion, so that the accompanying adult may help the child to steer, and may include a finial allowing the user to grip it firmly and comfortably.
