Just been looking at this and thinking eh.. and then realised you might have meant "pedal a trike"

If it's peddle a trick, no clue what you mean, if it's pedalling a trike, then somewhere between 2.6 and 3 I think..

wine in hand!!!!! Yes Pedal a trike!!!!

Neither ever managed.I think with dd it was definitely because she was too tall.Both gave up and went onto balancing on single wheeled scooters at 2 and then both learnt to ride a bike before they were 4

DD1: about 2 and she used to ride it everywhere from about 2.5 - abandoned the pushchair.

DD2: now 3.75. She can pedal it, but she really can't be bothered to put any effort into doing it for more than a few seconds. But she's a whizz on her balance bike.

So at 17 months we have some time to go!! He is getting soooooo cross with it. He just jiggs it!

as soon as he could reach the pedals, 18 months I think.
The whole family is bike mad, so it wasnt a suprise.

My DD never got the hang of it but motor skills weren't her strong point , went on to learn to scoot at 5 yo and ride a bike at 4.5 yo.

DS on the other hand, using the trike at just before 3 yo I think, scooter at 2.5 & bike at 3 yo.
