Gotta love the like-a-bike

Grandpa & Grootmoe bought Lukas a like-a-bike for his 2nd b-day. It's a "laufrad" - a small wooden bike with no pedals which is ubiquitous in Switzerland. It's great for little kids cause it teaches them balance - Lukas could cruise around on it & absolutely loved it.





But he was getting a little too big for it so it was time to move on to a "big boy bike". So G&G bought him a blue two-wheeler. This past weekend we decided to teach Lukas how to ride it. Now I seriously remember trying to learn how to ride a bike: lots of scrapes, lots of tears, & as my mom reminds me: a couple of outbursts at my mom&dad, telling them that they bought the "wrong, stupid bike"!

But literally after 3 minutes with Rob helping Lukas, he was zipping around no problem! I'm sure it is because of all his like-a-bike "training".
