[quote=Anonymous]We never did balance bikes with our kids. The oldest learned at 7 during the pandemic in a big empty parking lot. The youngest learn at 7 in DCPS bike riding unit. Neither used training wheels. We also didn’t really care about the kids learning to ride a bike. We live in an apartment in the city so it was more of a bother than a necessary skill. (By comparison, they’ve been in swimming lessons since 3.) But we’re glad they know and we do go through the effort take them out bike riding now and then. Our pediatrician did mention that learning to ride a bike is a good way to assess development, coordination, muscle strength, etc in kids. [/quote]
