A wooden bike for young children, sometimes known as a run bike or balance bike, is so much fun! Kids 2-5 years ride without training wheels and love it!
It's hard to describe just how much fun a wooden bike can be until you've seen one in action.
If you are new to the concept of balance bikes for toddlers, let us assure you that there is no better ride on toy you could give a young child.
A balance bike, or run bike, is not only a lot of fun for kids to ride, it also develops their athletic skills, especially their sense of balance, as they learn to ride a two wheel bicycle without the aid of training wheels. The child simply sits on the bike, walks or runs with feet on the ground and is soon gliding with his or her feet in the air!
And, depending on the size of the LIKEaBIKE or other wooden bike you choose, children as young as two years of age can learn to ride a two wheel bike in a very short time. Once kids get on their balance bikes, riding feels and looks so natural you would almost think the bike is part of their bodies!
Just watch this video of 3 year old Madison and Julia having fun on their LIKEaBIKES.
A few months after this video was shot, Julia got her first bicycle with pedals. She climbed on it and rode like a pro - no learning curve or nasty falls learning to ride without training wheels since she had never experienced them.
