New Bike

Eli got a new bike from his grandparents, and he is loving it. It's a PREbike, so it has two wheels but no pedals. The point is for the child to learn balance. Once they get the hang of it, kids are supposed to push off with their feet and then glide with their feet propped up on the side of the bike frame. Eli is still getting used to it, but he thinks it is so cool.

Below are some pictures of his first two experiences with the bike. We didn't tell him to give a thumbs up for the pictures, but he keeps giving a thumbs up whenever we try to take a picture of him.

Eli looks so grown up with his bike and helmet.

I've never heard of a prebike. That's awesome that it doesn't have pedals because craig won't pedal anyway.
