What bicycle should I get for my grandson?
– Ajoba of a 4-year old in Pune
After learning the hard way, Amma is happy to recommend the bicycle without pedals for our littlest cyclists. Training wheels, in her experience, hindered rather than helped the process of building balance and coordination. The balance bike lets one learn these skills without the constraint of pedaling. One can also use a regular bicycle as if it were a balance bicycle; simply ignore the pedals. Or remove the pedals – as shown here:
Or get one from the store. Mothering reviews the Strider.

Thanks Aravinda Amma for sharing this post on balance bikes, we may actually try this out with Disha’s bike
