So if you have not heard my wee man turned 2! We pooled together with the grands to buy the wee man a balance bike. I never knew there was so much choice out there and as usual we spent a lot of time trying to decide. So much so that we did not get the bike itself pretty much until the last minute. We decided then to pick up the wee man a little early from nursery and present him with his big birthday surprise...a nice new shiny red balance bike or as it has been christened "Vroom vroom". We headed straight to the park to try it out and while not "vrooming" away he certainly enjoyed it!
It was immediately christened with mud!
Before we took it for a proper adventure.
A new way to enjoy being out and about and we LOVE it!
Big fans of balance bikes here! He'll soon be zooming along on it and lifting his legs for the "weeee"!!
ReplyDeleteYes I think my heart is going to be in my throat for some of those "weeee" bits!
DeleteI've heard lots about these balance bikes. They sound fab! Happy riding wee man! x
ReplyDeleteThey really are fab!
DeleteHmmm, my little one is two soon and I hadn't thought about a bike for him but I didn't know about balance bikes *runs off to Google*
ReplyDeleteThey are a really great purchase and I would highly recommend them! The recommended ones don't come cheap but there is ebay!
DeleteI just got a toddlebike for my Little Man, isn't it great how much fun bikes for toddlers are :-) Happy Birthday to your wee man, hope he gets hours of pleasure from his new bike x
ReplyDeleteOnly a few days and already it is the favourite mode of transport!
DeleteI hope the 'wee man' had a fab birthday - he certainly looks like he enjoyed his birthday present. Thanks for linking to Country Kids.
ReplyDeleteThank you we had a lovely day x
Deleteaww he looks like he loves his new bike, happy birthday xx

Deletehappy belated 2nd birthday to your boy. a balance bike is a great buy, my eldest had one for his 2nd birthday and he had an actual bike which he was able to ride before his 3rd birthday! judging by your boys enthusiasm in the photos, he may well be doing the same thing.x
ReplyDeleteWe were surprised how quickly he took to it! Hopefully it all goes well and he will be riding a bike in no time!
DeleteWe are big fans of balance bikes too. Hope your little one had lovely birthday x
ReplyDeleteIt was a really lovely day x
DeleteAh the bike looks fab!! What a lovely birthday present to get. Great photo's too. Love the choice of red for the bike!
ReplyDeleteHubby could not resist getting a red one! It really is THE birthday present!
DeleteGreat colourful pictures. We've looked at one of theses bikes for our little man for when he's old enough. Great idea.
