Boys absolutely LOVE them!!!
Who would have known that Noah would learn to rollerblade at only 4 1/2 years of age? It was a surprise. He was at a friends house and I picked him up and saw that he had rollerblades on his feet and that he could stand up and actually move with them on his feet. All winter he practiced in the basement and this Spring he got a new pair from Gma Cathy and Jeff and he is FANTASTIC on those wheels!!!!
Last summer he mastered the bike without training wheels. I was the WORST teacher and realized that threatening his little life and the life of his bike was NOT effective and that another approach would work better. Now he can start on his own (almost every time) and has mastered the art of breaking while going down a big hill! I LOVE to bike with him!!!!!
Then there is the scooter. When he turned there was the 3 wheeled scooter, not so much his favorite, tried a 2 wheeled one that belonged to someone else and by his 4th birthday had his own. This Spring he learned that there is a break on the back wheel and now can zip around (with helmet on) and apply the break as needed, he is AMAZING!
We then could go on to all the toys that have wheels. It is just all about wheels!
Peter enjoys all things wheels as well. He LOVES to ride in the "burley" (couldn't really afford a "real" one so we have a fake) and now loves riding in his little stroller/car, he loves to stare at the wheels!!! Seriously who knew.
So this Spring and Summer I better get my butt in gear and enjoy riding my bike, pulling the burley, and getting back into rollerblades!!!!
The Wheels Go Round and Round!!!
How sweet it is!
