Scooters and Cycles

We just graduated both kids to two wheel scooters. Andrew had been using an especially stable three wheel type and Bethany a normal three wheel type. The new ones are faster and require a higher level of control and sense of balance. So we are seeing some spectacular crashes now.

Meanwhile Bethany is still somewhat tentative on her bicycle (with training wheels), though she has mastered the braking. Andrew is still a daredevil on his large tricycle. He does race car maneuvers, such as getting up tight behind Bethany and then swerving around and zooming in front.

We’re still waiting for him to show some more interest in riding a bicycle before we make the shift.
