Toddler Balance Bike
What is a good balance bike you recommend? Also is this the process — balance bike - transition to bicycle ? How do you know when to move from former to latter ?

We have a woom balance bike and like it- it’s worth noting it’s just a balance bike and you’ll need to purchase a bicycle when ready to transition to pedals. Our son started asking for a bicycle with pedals when he was ready to transition. I think you’ll have a sense when they’re ready based on mastering the balance bike or getting bored with it.

Our pediatric physical therapist recommended the Little Tikes “my first balance to pedal” training bike. Measure your child first though. We didn’t, and our 34 in toddler is still a tiny bit too short to ride it. So it’s collecting dust in the closet until he’s 36ish inches.

Yeah, that happened to us, we bought a balance bike that was too big and it was really sad because he wanted to use it so badly. We ended up with the woom 1 and he absolutely loves it, although it looks like he may outgrow it super fast. So you’ll either see it for sale on the marketplace or it will be a hand me down 😅
