How to teach a child to ride a bicycle

Instructions

1

The first child's bicycle is a three-wheeled. With it, you need to teach your child two completely new actions for him: steer and twist the pedals.

2

Small tricycles are best suited for skiing in an apartment or on small enclosed grounds, which have an even flat surface.

3

First, teach the child the steering. Explain to him that if he turns the wheel, for example, to the right, the bike will go to the right, and if he turns the steering wheel to the left, the bike will start to move to the left. Roll the baby around the apartment, allowing him to steer, choosing the direction of movement yourself.

4

Only after the baby learns the steeringcontrol, start teaching him to use the pedals. Show the child how his legs should move the pedals, while holding the young cyclist by the hips.

5

Learned to ride a tricycle on a child boldly transplanted to a two-wheeled. Now your main task is to teach the kid to keep his balance.

6

Choose as a playground for skiing slopingA descent of not more than 5 m. Seated the child on a bicycle, firmly grasp his shoulders or the saddle of a two-wheeled vehicle. Do not hold onto the wheel of the bike, otherwise the kid will not be able to learn to balance yourself.

7

Let the kid start off from the ground with his feet as if he were riding a scooter. Arriving in this way to the descent, let him quickly put his feet on the pedals, while making a couple of turns.

8

If the bicycle continues to drive smoothly, without wagging,Tell the child not to stop, but keep moving forward while twisting the pedals. If the baby "lost balance" and the bike began to stagger from side to side, advise the rider to go back to "scooter mode".

9

With each such descent, the number of turns with the feetWill increase. As a result, the child will remove his feet from the pedals only at the end of the descent, and eventually learn to drive further, turn in the right direction and slow down when necessary.
