The warmer weather has encouraged us to dust off the bikes and start cycling as a family again. On a particularly busy afternoon at Clumber Park, I noticed all the little ones out trying to cycle on two wheels and many older one on stabilisers that really need to just go for it. I remember teaching my two how to cycle on a big open park in just the same way, but running alongside side, holding the seat and letting go (usually at the wrong time). I then remembered Katherine from NipperGrip recommending its uses that weren't just skiing.
So if you have bought a NipperGrip during the last ski season on thinking of doing so for next year's season remember that it can also be used to teach your child to ride a bike and swim (without the reins on!)
The harness fits snugly and securely with a handle on both the front and back so you can run alongside your child and guide them as they build their confidence just to cycle.
The key to teaching them is to have as big a space as possible and just go! At least using a harness you wont be running along bent over like i had to! Wish I had thought of it then!
