How Do I Teach My 3 Year Old To Pedal Bike? [Solved]
Ya gotta start with the basics! Balancin’ is key when it comes to teachin’ your kiddo how to ride a bike. So, take the pedals off their bike and let ’em focus on stayin’ upright. This trick works best for 16" bikes and up, but can also be used on smaller ones.
Safety: Ensure that the bike is the correct size for your child and that they are wearing a helmet at all times.
Balance: Start by teaching your child to balance on the bike without pedaling, then progress to pedaling while balancing.
Braking: Teach your child how to use the brakes safely and effectively before allowing them to ride on their own.
Turning: Show your child how to turn corners safely and smoothly, using their body weight rather than relying solely on the handlebars for control.
Signals: Teach your child how to signal when turning or stopping, using hand signals or verbal cues as appropriate for their age group and ability level.
Road Rules: Make sure that your child understands basic road rules such as stopping at stop signs, yielding when necessary, and staying in designated bike lanes where available
