Something along the lines of this -

Don't get a cheap one. In-laws got our daughter one and it's rubbish. Everything breaks on it and it just won't start now.
Possibly a 2nd hand honda or Suzuki possiblity best?

Suzuki 50 spot on with speed adjuster and safety cut out cord.
Should find tidy one for under £400
Just looked on Facebook marketplace and it's full of them!

Don’t buy those cheap things they are awful! Get a Suzuki Ltz50 and it will be worth as much as you paid for it if you sold it in a few years

+1 for the Suzuki 50. Got a nice one in Feb one year for my daughter, paid £400. Sold it a few years later the week before Christmas for £600, and had not spent a penny on it other than fuel, could have sold it 10 times over, simply won't get that with a cheap Chinese one

How old or big are the kids? A 50cc is a very short term answer and useless if it's not dead flat. Got a Yamaha grizzly 125 for my nine year old,8 years ago and still useful now. Reverse is worth a fortune which most kids quads don't have

I did not pay that ridiculous price for it,

wife found one mint second hand on facebook near us for about £350 if i remember correctly, its a beast and pretty quick too.

I rekon yours should be fine AL R to be fair we got it last xmas so he as only 4 then!

i got sh!t Chinese one it was pretty good for price but i would get a lt50 if you want it to last, i dont imagine it would have faired well with any serious use i managed to get rid of mine with a small loss

I wouldn't go for a 50cc, they'll have outgrown it by new year. Even our 125 has throttle restrictor on it.

I went through this 5years ago bought a new Honda 90 quad £1600 + vat .
I looked at loads of 2nd hand crap at £600 . I could probably sell it now and get £1400 for it.

Mate of mine deals in quads and can't get enough little Suzuki lt50s. The cheap ones are ok while they work but you'll really struggle to get parts for them when they break. Which they will...
