It's time to learn to ride a bike!!
Learning to balance.
Learning bike
It is given several names: learning bike, balance bike, bike without pedals. The Americans call it the balance bike, and it seems that the nickname is indeed appropriate, since it is precisely his sense of balance that the child will train by riding this strange bicycle. In addition, balance remains the most important notion for riding a bicycle!
Advantages
Much more than a fad, therefore, the balance bike has real advantages and allows children to develop certain skills that will facilitate their transition to cycling.
- Easy to maneuver: the child only has to propel themselves with their legs, which allows cycling from the early age of 2-3 years. You don't even have to show him how this bike works: instinctively, the child will manage to maneuver it;
- Confidence: the fact that the child is in perfect control of his speed, and that he can brake easily thanks to his feet allows him to be more confident.
- Safe;
- Promotes active transportation: young children are sometimes reluctant to walk, but will nevertheless like to travel longer distances with this bike;
- Lightweight: these balance bikes are usually constructed from lightweight materials. Some models even have a handle for easy transport;
- Designed for the little ones: the lowered frame makes it easier to stride;
- Prepare to ride a bike with pedals.
- Ecological
So give your child a chance to learn a better mode of transportation!!
