Get outside on wheels: learning to bike with kids

Get Outside With Kids - A podcast by Jennifer Kolbuc and Kate Le Souef

Categories:

Kids walk slow. Which is fine! We love walking and exploring with our kids. But sometimes you actually want to get to a place. Like, maybe today. Enter: bikes! We talk about our tips for getting started with a bike with your kid, and making the transition from balance to pedal.  Takeaways:  Take your kid somewhere they can see other kids their own size on bikes. Get the right size bike. Small and super light is a good place to start.  More time on a balance bike makes the transition to a pedal bike smoother. Buying bikes second hand makes sense when your kids grow fast! Gear mentioned in this episode: Yvolution Y Velo Junior 9 inch Balance Bike, Cruzee Balance Bike, Strider Bike Connect with us on Instagram for more tips @getoutsidewithkids
