Kyla Gets a BIKE!


We celebrated Kyla’s 3rd birthday on our annual family camping trip. The weekend was rainy, but it was the only downer in an otherwise wonderful weekend.

Her big gift was her new bicycle—without pedals! The new bike-learning theory going around is that if kids learn balance and steering while pushing off with their feet, by the time you add the pedals, they will be ready to really bike. This supposedly eliminates the stage between training wheels and learning to balance without training wheels. Kyla’s legs need to grow about one more inch before she can comfortable push herself around, but she likes the idea of her “little pink bike”.
