molgrips / swavis – Jamie started riding his balance bike when he turned 2.
I introduced the pedal bike (minus the pedals) at the beginning of the year, so he was using it just like a balance bike.
I felt he needed to get used to the extra weight & the additional brake.
It definitely paid off because he then only had pedalling to learn, can’t believe how quickly he picked it up.
Last night he bumped down a kerb outside the house while pedalling like it wasn’t even there……. :-)
