5 yr old not interested in bike
| Wed, 05-11-2005 - 10:14am |
DD (6 in Aug) is not interested in riding her bike. A lot of girls in her preschool already know how to ride without training wheels. I was hoping this would get her motivated to try. She will ride it when she's in the mood, but that seldom occurs. I think a lot of it is her little sister (4) still rides a trike and isn't interested either. How old were your kids when they learned? What is the best way to teach them without training wheels? TIA Ann

Girl, My dd (8) still rides her bike with the training wheels. My other dd (11) learned when she was about 8. I guess I have lazy girls...lol. I think though it is because they don't get to ride them often. My dh taught my oldest just by standing right by her and then letting her go. It only took her a couple of tries. I guess when they finally reach a certain age they are a little embarrased cause they don't know yet and get very motivated.
