Default Help needed restricting speed on childs buggy

Any help would be appreciated
We have purchased 3 buggies for our young children for Christmas
1 is a Kinross and 2 are chinese. 2 are "geared" and one chinese auto
At the moment they are a little too fast. ? How do we restrict the speed ?
Kindly explain in simple terms as sadly we are not very technical. many thanks
We simply want the buggies to go very slowly until the children understand and learn how to drive, they are 6 and 8
We are in the UK

Not familiar with Kinross brand. Can you be a little more specific-- what model and size engines.Most chinese models do have ways to limit the throttle with the cable,some have a limit screw at the pedals.If you can take a pic that might help us determine what you can do.

A lot of it depends on the transmission too. If it is the CVT based auto trans, they make a spacer that goes between the front variator sheeves that will keep them from coming together which in turn restricts the speed. What size engines do they have?

you could just put a stop under the throttle pedal so they can't push it all the way down.....
