As I mentioned before in Sevea’s birthday post, she got her very first bike. We hadn’t purchased a bike for her because she wasn’t interested in peddling at all. No amount of talking about it made her want to try. She just wasn’t into it. Did not appeal to her at all. Even on her birthday we didn’t know if she would ever want to ride it but without having a bike around she wouldn’t ever try either. She was really really excited about getting the bike for her birthday so that helped the situation. Then her daycare friend Grace was over for a fun night and brought her bike. I think this really helped peak Sevea’s interest in actually trying to peddle herself. (Instead of us pushing her around on the bike) She figured it out that night. The next day it was like she had been riding for months. She did really well. It will be fun to watch her continue to improve…except summer is behind us. Let’s hope she doesn’t forget over the winter…what is the saying “It’s like riding a bike?”
Updated to add: I forgot to include the first casualty of learning to ride her bike. She got an owie the second day of riding but thankfully hopped back on the bike after getting a Band-Aid.
