Riding on Two Wheels!

Our garage sale holy grail this summer was to find a small bike for Alex. A few weeks ago victory was ours! We found a small two-wheeler that was relatively free of embellishment.

Alex was excited to give it a try, but, in all honesty, the fact that it brakes when you turn the wheels backwards was a bit challenging for him to overcome. He managed to get a bit of forward motion going, so we had a fun short ride and will keep working on it so he gets the idea.

If you figure out how to make him "get it", let me know. We are having the hardest time teaching Owen.
