My son is almost 3 and does not transition well with new things. I started with a balance bike so he wouldn’t feel the comfort and ease of a tricycle. I’m so happy I did because he rides around so well on his bike and soon he will be riding a bike with pedals! I’ve added the one my one year old uses as an alternative if your child is still too young for this bike. LTKunder100 LTKkids LTKfamily
