I would have though something designed for skateboarding, rollerstaking or cycling would be appropriate. A 12v kids bike is going to be going slower than any of those items.

Max speed of 6kph. Just under 4mph, or a fast walk. Not sure they need a helmet at that speed, but it's not my child, and I don't know the full risks, so I would suggest looking and full face BMX helmets if they want something that looks the part of a motorbike helmet but is not too expensive or heavy.

Kiddie Moto who sell the wooden balance bikes for kids also do helemts with similar cool grahics. They are a british company so chances are their helmets have a kite mark etc and will be up to the task

Helmets are age appropriate and £24 to £30. They should be fine and as they are not full face easy to get on an off.

Just to throw a curve ball how about a ski helmet.
