Why Do Parents Prefer A Balance Bike To Teach Their Kids To Learn To Ride A Bike?
If you will notice, wooden balance bikes don't have any pedals. Learning how to pedal is a pretty basic skill that almost all kids can pick up within minutes. But the biggest challenge is learning how to balance themselves on a 2-wheeled bike. In the past we've given our youngsters bicycles with stabilisers to help them make this transition, however, those training wheels really defeat the purpose. Your kid learns to depend on those training wheels to keep him up instead of learning how to balance. And that is why so many youngsters are frightened and have a difficult time learning how to ride a real bike.
But wooden balance bikes are different Nick Watney, managing director of The Balance Bike shop. It's because they have no pedals and your child isn't forced to learn to balance while he's moving at a fast speed or pedaling, he will simply sit on the seat and either run or walk the bike to put it into motion. In the beginning you'll notice your child standing astride the bike and walking it. Then he'll gradually move to a sitting position and start lifting his feet to coast. And before you know it your kid has already learned the way to balance himself on his wooden balance bike. Nick mentions he gets a lot of questions on how to ride a balance bike so produced a 2 minute video on his website to show how easy it is. I got my son, aged 5 to demonstrate how easy it is. Within 30 minutes of a child gliding on the balance bike, he was able to progress on to normal children's bike without the need for stabilisers.
Another good thing about these wooden balance bikes is that since your child isn't traveling at a very fast speed and he's able to manage it better than a real bike, he can ride this bike indoors where you can keep a watchful eye on him or simply enable him to learn without the danger of falling off into the street or the traffic.
Because these are wooden bikes they are very sturdy and very simple to clean. Simply wipe with a damp cloth or sponge. If cared for correctly a wooden bike will last for years and all of your youngsters can learn to ride on it before they move on to a bigger, 2-wheel bike. They are easy to assemble and the seats are adjustable to fit any child.
Children love these bikes because of how quickly and easily they can progress to the 'Big Kid' bikes. Since they typically have both feet on the ground there is no danger of falling that you've got to worry about with traditional bikes so your child is much happier and much more willing to learn to ride. And because they're so light weight these wooden bikes are also easier for your child to control. So get rid of the training wheels and help your child learn to ride a bike with a wooden balance bike.
Mr Watney has designed two different kinds. The first is a normal, wooden balance bike, while the second comes with a cradle that turns the bike into a rocking horse-type toy. Children can use this to build up their confidence in the saddle before hitting the streets for the first time.
