We've contemplated getting Ottavia a new bike. She has a tricycle but we felt she's past that stage so we were going to buy a strider bike. One morning we made a stop at sport check and saw this little bike, just like a strider! We bought it and she Love's it. This picture is right before the helmet of course! She's getting so good at it, hopefully we can skip the training wheel stage and go right to a real bike next year! As big as she's getting, her short little legs just touch the sidewalk!
Only in Calgary do you see a toque, a bike, and rubber boots all in one picture!!
Good for her! We have done the same thing with both of our boys and it REALLY helps with the balance. They both used training wheels first to get down the action of pedalling, then moved to a bike with no training wheels or pedals, then add in the pedals and they were able to put it all together.
