Here is video of Bo and Emmy riding their first bike. It is a special bike (with no pedals as Bo says) called Strider Bike. The idea behind it is to teach the kids how to balance and not rely on the training wheels or 3rd wheel. They then learn to balance and adding the pedals is nothing. Apparently there are 3 year olds who can ride a regular bike because they started on this.
As you can see in the video we have a ways to go but hopefully each day they will get a little more comfortable on it. You are suppose to sit on the seat and then push off with the feet like a skateboard or scooter. The bike has a place to put your feet up so they don't drag on the ground. We have two rules to follow and that is to always wear your helmet and shoes when on the bike.
