My 20mo. old little guy is very short but also very coordinated and strong. We bought him a Radio Flyer Grow and Go bike on a whim for Christmas. It's like a little bike with training wheels. He loves to scooch it with his feet on the ground, and he puts his feet on the peddles, but doesn't understand peddling yet. The bike is very tippy, though, so I thought he should have a sturdy tricycle so he could learn to peddle. While researching trikes, I read here about all you balance bike lovers, and I'm not sure what to do. Since his Godmother is planning to buy him the trike, I could get him a balance bike if having both is a good idea. Is it? I guess what I'm asking is for recommendations for a tricycle for a short little guy to learn to peddle and also recommendations for a good balance bike if you think the balance bike is appropriate. I'd be so grateful for guidance!
