Bike for two year old..which one??

[Georgieex]

Hello =)

It's my daughters third birthday end of month and she'd love a bike..I've found three but i have no clue what one too get her! she doesn't know much about using a bike i dont think either :)

thank you :)

I've found a wooden balance bike, a metal balance bike and a peppa pig bike with stabalizers

We've bought a couple of bikes for birthdays recently. I'd go for the lightest balance bike - that's what we had the most success with. The balance bikes have been good - they can just whizz along and get used to balancing/steering.

Get the lightest balance bike - much easier to carry when they get fed up or tired!

thank you for replying..is there much difference between a wooden one and a metal one? they both say they are light

Lightest balance bike, and the one that will fit - you want her to be able to put both her feet flat on the ground when she's sitting on the saddle (which is different to a pedal bike).

We had a Puky that did both kids (used most days to get to nursery) and is now loaned out to a third child, but I'm sure there are now others out there. When I bought it, it was the only one that was small enough for my rather short 2yo!

Metal one will be lighter and more adjustable - ime the wooden ones are too big for 2yos. Have a look in a bike shop if you can, or Sports Direct often have some balance bikes.

Google tells me the wooden one is 2.5kgs, while the metal is 3.5kg.

Plus the wooden is super cute!

Actually, I'm wrong. The metal is 2.7kg. I can't read properly tonight. Echo the others in getting one that fits her, so check her height and the seat heights

Balance bike all the way. My ds is 2 1/4 and has a push along motorbike/ balance bike type only has really wide wheels. They get so frustrated when they want to pedal bit can't and the balance aspect is great for improving their stability. I think the wooden one is gorgeous!
