Mason learned to ride his bike yesterday! Look at his face. He was so HAPPY!! Way to go Mason! You are AWESOME!!!
This is Rocco Wood. He is only 3 but he rides this scooter like a 9 year old. I cracked up when I saw him jump on the thing and just jam up and down the street like he has been riding for years.

We had a great time with the Woods on the 4th of July. Dustin and Carmine taught us an amazing trick to teach kids how to ride a bike super fast. We didn't really believe that it would work but it was amazing!! Within 20 minutes Mason was riding up and down the street all by himself totally confident. It was unbelievable! Last year we tried teaching him for several days (with the standard method). He really struggled with the balance and coordination and he never really got it so then the interest was kind of lost. So if you have a kiddo that needs to learn let me know and I will tell you how!
Ok, way curious! What is this magical method you speak of? Caleb is totally getting frustrated with the "standard" method and wants badly to ditch the training wheels forever.
ReplyDeleteLaura, you are not going to believe this until you see it! Take his training wheels off AND the pedals! Have him cruise around "Flinstone" style using his feet on the ground to make him go (does that make sense?). He will get the balancing down probably within 30 minutes. He will want to go faster so he will start to pick his feet up and leave them up longer to cruise around. Once he seems to have the balancing down put the pedals back on. And he should be off and riding! Good luck and let me know how it goes!
