How to properly teach kids to ride a bike
After parents buy a bicycle for their child, if the child wants to ride it out to play, he must first learn riding skills before he can go on the road safely! But for kids who don't usually have a living space to play, it takes a little time to learn.
Level 1: Feel the Balance
1. Choose a bicycle that allows your child's feet to touch the ground after the seat is lowered. Remove the wheel guards of the bicycle. If you are afraid that the pedals will get in the way, you can also remove the pedals. However, most children seem to have no effect on the pedals.
2. Find a flat grass with a slope of about 30 meters. The slope should not be too steep, the grass should not be too long, and the wheel should not be wrapped around. At the same time, it can land softly in case the child falls.
3. Put a helmet on the child, tie the shoelaces, tuck the trousers into the socks, and preferably wear gloves.
4. First push the car to the half-slope position, let the child ride on the car first, put both feet on the ground, then lift both feet, let the car slowly slide down the slope, don't help the child, tell him/her if Frightened or out of control, both feet can touch the ground at any time. In the beginning, he or she may ask you to stay close to you, but don't help, let the child find and feel the sense of balance. What you need to do is to give full encouragement and appreciation for every attempt and progress.
5. Repeat the sliding, or play a sliding game with the child, see which time the sliding is far, put your foot down in the middle less to stop, and give a small reward (such as an ice cream or chocolate) for reaching the goal. Until the child can slide the entire ramp easily, without putting down his feet in the middle.
The second level: pedal sliding
1. Reinstall the pedals (if removed, note that the pedals are different from left to right). Have your child slide with one foot on the pedal, then both feet at the same time, until the child can start pedaling.
2. Repeat the ride and encourage your child to pedal as much as he/she feels comfortable, then increase the ride distance until the starting point is moved to the top of the hill. When the child is very proficient, raise the seat a little and let the child practice a few more times. You can also add a few times in the middle of the link to the finish brake.
The third pass: flat road riding
1. Find an open and flat ground, and practice from stationary to riding a straight line, stopping and turning.
1) First adjust one pedal to the direction of the handlebar (2 o'clock). In this way, when you start riding, pressing down on this pedal with one foot can provide power to the bicycle, so that the bicycle can move smoothly forward, and the other supporting foot has time to get off the ground to find the pedal. When practicing this step, children often appear to be anxious to step on the pedal, and often start very reluctantly, swaying far away. Parents should guide them to develop the right habits and start smoothly.
2) Learn to walk straight, keep your head up and look forward, relax your next door and knees, and pedal the whole circle smoothly. If you can't relax and the whole body is stiff, when the child rides, the body will move with the rotation of the head, and the car will shake with it, making it unstable.
3) Practice parking, learn to brake at the same time (if the car has front and rear brakes), and tell the child that if you only brake the front brake, it is easy to turn over from the handlebar when the speed is fast. If you only brake the rear brake, the braking effect will only be limited. It reaches 20-30 of the whole vehicle, and it is easy to cause sideslip.
2. Turning practice

2. Turning practice
1) Slow down the speed of the car before reaching the corner, then turn the handlebar slightly and turn sideways slightly. When turning, keep the pedal on the inside of the corner. When you can control freely, you can speed up the turning speed to practice.
2) Tell the child to ride cautiously in places with people and obstacles, do not rush, stop suddenly, and turn sharply, and pay attention to unevenness or obstacles on the road. Never ride on the road. If you are old enough to ride on the road, you must also conduct special road safety knowledge and gesture training before you can go on the road. Tell your child that safety is always the number one priority for a little cyclist, and that developing safe riding habits will last a lifetime.
