And he's OFF


Remove training wheels, Check!

We have been working for quite some time to get our little guy off of training wheels. So, last night, he was riding in the cul-de-sac with his little friends. One of them is a 5 year old girl, and she was taking it upon herself to teach him to ride his 2 wheeler correctly.
She stood there with her hands on her hips, and said... “NO, don’t move your handle bars like this! Keep them straight. I SAID, keep them straight. Now pedal. PEDAL!” Finally after a while of that, I heard her say, “You’re doing it! You’re doing it! Good job!”

I guess I should have had a 5 year old training him a long time ago. He would have learned much quicker!
