On Saturday morning we took the training wheels off and practiced for a little while. She was nervous at first, and wouldn't let me let her go. After a short while, she was able to a few rotations before I needed to catch her.
Yesterday, after a little bit of practice, she refused to let me hold her and away she went.
This video is from today, after sports day at school, which was fun but exhausting. She still had the energy to ride the bike when Daddy got home, and here she is. She can do speedbumps, stop with her brakes, adjust her balance (a bit) and is learning to turn already. Yay!
Nana and Grandad, get a better quality video by clicking on the '360p' at the bottom and changing it to '720p' and then make it fullscreen.
Then this evening, just to prove herself more, she decided to read the story herself - and she really is recognising some of the words from their letters. About half an hour ago, when she should have been in bed, she came into me with a sheet of paper. She wanted to know how to write 11-upwards. She'd already written out 1-10, and once I showed her the system for 11, 12 and 13, she worked out the rest.
Can Mummy and Daddy keep up?
