learning to balance

Aunt Angie got C a bicycle for her birthday this year and our Precious loved it.

In fact, she loved it so much, she would go cycling almost every evening. Then we thought she could learn to cycle without the training wheels but once they were removed, C seemed to have lost her confidence altogether.

So what do we do? Put the training wheels back and I bought her a new toy.

It was like Christmas! We told her last night that we were expecting a delivery and this morning, the first thing she did when she woke up was to go hunt down her gift! And then, her little eyes lit up when she saw it!

This little fellow is supposed to teach her to balance. C tried it on immediately and although it didn't have pedals like a normal bicycle, and C was falling over left and right, she didn't seem flustered and soon was pushing herself off for a short distance.

C got really excited after viewing the clip and we were just pleased that she was able to handle the bike. Yes, it really is very light and C was extremely proud of herself for being able to carry it in through the door. :) Now, we just have to work on it in the evenings (I don't think that is going to be a problem. She completely adores this little fellow. )
