Leah, You might want to give Electra Bikes out of San Diego a look. All have nice high handlebars with multiple models in 16" 20" and 24" wheel sizes. We got our 7 year old a 20" model after she was having trouble learning on the typical Walmart type bike and within a few days we couldn't stop her. Much more stable platform for kids to learn on and feel secure. Fits in well with other Rivey type bikes when using for kids or in Cruiser/Townie roles.
