[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]6.5. But had a balance bike and training wheels for years before. When she outgrew the bike with training wheels I replaced it with one without them. It took her a few tries to understand pushing off and stopping, but the balance was a breeze. I thought it was going to be horrible as she’s very easily frustrated, but really had very little difficulty. She did most of it on her own. I hung back, she asked me to jog along with her until she was steady. Really proud of that kid! [/quote] Adding we used training wheels due to her first pedal bike being very heavy, with a lighter bike you might be able to skip. No harm in letting them gain confidence with training wheels though. Eventually they won’t really be using them and once they realize they’re doing the work/balancing it’s an easy transition.
