HOW TO RIDE
Balance Bike - Start standing with the Balance Bike between both legs, feet flat on the ground, and both hands firmly holding onto the Handlebar. Sit on the Seat with your feet still flat on the ground.
You can propel yourself forward with either leg by pushing off the ground. The Balance Bike is meant to work on balance and control skills and build confidence.
Kick Scooter - Before riding, put your foot as close as possible to the front of the Deck, and your other foot on the ground. Make sure that your riding route is clear. To start riding, boost yourself forward with your foot that is on the ground. Keep one foot behind the other, (it’s more comfortable to place one foot forward and the other one turned at 70-90°). It will help you gain more stability.
