Dad and the kids got out of the house to let mom take a well-deserved nap on mother's day. L is a little to big for a balance bike, but the kid needs to lose the training wheels, so I improvised. I pulled off the training wheels and put a pad on his frame so he could sit low enough to easily touch the ground with his feet. That wasn't enough, so I removed the pedals. That did the trick. After an hour or so, he was scooting around confidently and coasting 5 or 6 feet at a time. If the kid could just do that every day for a week, he'd probably be able to pedal away on two wheels like a pro.
