Hi all,
My little girl is nearly 3 and has had a spesh balance bike for nearly a year. She can't really get it, and gives up after a couple of steps. I know we have to just let her choose, but is there anything you can do to encourage her to keep trying it till she gets it? She's generally a little daredevil so she has the nature to get going, just needs some encouragement.

Any advice much appreciated! Cheers

Unfortunately, there's not much you can do other than just have it within easy reach all the time.
Our daughter 2 1/2 has had hers for nearly a year now and uses it all the time. It helps that her siblings like riding their bikes though

Yeah we have that problem, she is on her own 🙁 I think I'm going to make the effort to take her to the local skate park, it has a really good play park right next to the skate park, and lots of groms on scooters and little bikes.
