We gave this to our 4 year old granddaughter for CHristmas and she immediately took off on it, pushing with her feet. She has not learned to balance yet, but I am sure that will come. She will probably need the longer seat post soon. This is a great way to teach a child confidence prior to riding a two wheeler.

Surprisingly small!

We all had a good laugh at how small the bike was when we pulled it out of the box, however, it needs to be that small in order for a child to feel comfortable and to be able to handle it. We have a super tall three year old and she is almost too big for it, however, we also have an almost 2 year old who can use it as well. Very pleased with the make and feel of the bike.

We bought this bike for our then 23 month-old son almost a year ago. He was still riding the push cars but was not big enough for a trike. Within just a month or so of us showing him how to grab the handles and hop on, he was hooked! Hi LOVES it and rides everyday. He feels like a Big Kid and with out any prompting or "lessons" from us, he learned to stride, push, and glide by putting his feet on the foot rest.
The bike has taken a beating over this last year. He rides everyday and the bike is outside only. It's still in great shape! Of course the paint is a bit chipped, but the tires and seat are still perfect.
I have no doubt that as he nears his third birthday, he will go straight to a big kid bike without training wheels. However, we may purchase the next size up Strider just because it's so much fun!
Absolutely worth the price (which is reasonable for the quality and durability). Probably the best non-essential purchase we have made for our son to this point.
Great L'il bike! 
Surprisingly small!
