    Thank-you for posting this information packed video. I took notes. I liked how you alternated between video of you teaching and clips of girls of various ages riding the bikes. Now I am going to watch the video you recommended on your top picks for a balance bike.

    Do you have a preference between the woom 1 and the pello ripple for a 18 month old with the plans to keep it until a peddle bike?

    • @Twowheelingtotsbikes
      @Twowheelingtotsbikes  4 роки тому

      The woom 1 is smaller and lighter than the Pello, so depending on the size of your 18 month old, may be a more suitable fit. The Pello, however, has a much higher maximum seat height, so it will grow with your child longer. The woom is just great if your child transitions to a pedal bike early (like 3 years old). That said, both of those bikes are currently out of stock due to manufacturing delays caused by COVID.

      @@Twowheelingtotsbikes Ok sounds good. I'll keep this in mind when all this COVID stuff stops and stock gets back to normal. Thanks again! Stay safe :)

    When did you guys start with the balance bike?

    • @Twowheelingtotsbikes
      @Twowheelingtotsbikes  6 місяців тому

      The best time to start is between 18 months and 2 years old. But if your child is older than that, it’s never too late!
