Alison got this cool bike, way back in April for her birthday. The box said it was for 18 months and older,
so we decided to wait a little while before letting her try to kill herself on
it.
This weekend we thought she was close
enough, and because she was walking so well, figured she couldn’t do too much
damage. She absolutely
loves it! She pushes it, rides it,
plays with all the goodies on it and only fell over once. When she goes forward, she kind of just stands up and walks it around. But she’s an excellent driver and even looks over her shoulder when she’s backing up.
As you can see, she got a little frustrated as naptime
approached – she couldn’t make it go exactly where she wanted it to go. Immediately after she woke up though, she got right back on it and had a blast. Life with a toddler is good.
Grandma W. must be so proud to delight Ali with such a wonderful plaything! She is just the right size for it! I bet she'll be great on a trike one day, and then a bike! Watch out!
