One of the best introductions to cycling for your little ones is on a balance bike.
A balance bike has no pedals, in order for them to move it relies on your little one by means of pushing to walk/ run while sat in the saddle.
All they have to concentrate on is steering, balance comes naturally, creating confident mini riders ready for some pedals.
