In the past month or so, C has really started trying to pick up big brothers balance bike and try to ride it. He tries so hard, but it is just too big and too heavy! I started noticing toddler versions of the balance bike - low to the ground, with three wheels, and no pedals. When they came up on Zulily, I told Pop and SweetHart, and they thought it would be a great early Christmas present! We got the Mishi Surf Up. It goes from a trike and converts into a scooter when they get a little older.
C loves it! And H took his job of "teaching" brother how to ride a bike very serioulsy. He showed him how to walk with his feet and push with his hands, and even how to sit on his seat!
C could stand to be about an inch taller (he's only in the 6th percentile for height), or maybe some thick soled shoes might help. He liked walking it around
but I guess he couldn't get it as fast as he'd like while riding it, so he kept getting off and pushing it. I'm glad it is sturdy!
C even figured out how to make his bike go while sitting on the little jump seat part.
These boys are ready to go!
(SweetHart and KK have been here the last few days. I'll get some pictures up when I've stopped feeling sorry for myself that they've gone back, and have had a chance to go through the many pictures...)
