Balance Bike - My Hood Rider, Yellow

Item No: 41-505502
Great value
The vestibular sense
Proprioception
Gross motor skills

A gem among balance bikes that we highly recommend for children as young as 12 months. 

My Hood Rider is a very lightweight balance bike with an aluminum frame, 12-inch inflatable tires, and infinite seat height adjustment. This means that children as young as 1 (with inseams of 31 to 41 cm) can have wonderful experiences on this balance bike, learning to balance and gently push the bike forward with their feet. 

The handlebar has a nice pad to keep your child safe if the ride gets a little bumpy. The bike weighs only 3.5 kg.

Over the past 15–20 years, the balance bike has become a standard toy in most families with kids, and it has pretty much replaced the small bike with training wheels as a go-to first bike. On a balance bike, your child learns how to maintain balance, steer, and move themselves forward. Once they master those skills, most young children are ready to confidently start pedaling when it’s time to move on to a real bike. 

Rider is available in 3 beautiful colours.

Details: 

Frame: Aluminum
Fork: Aluminum
12" aluminum rims
Wide, air-filled tires
Handlebar padding
Infinitely adjustable seat with quick release
Inseam length: 31–41 cm
Handlebar height: 50 cm

Suitable for ages 1 yr. to 5 yrs.

A balance bike is a great way to improve your child's cross-body coordination and balance from an early age. What's special about balance bikes is that they don't have pedals, so your child pushes the bike forward with their legs while straddling the bike.

A balance bike is a great way to challenge your child without them having a lot of falls or crashes - because your child constantly has a foot on the ground and is able to regain balance or stop the bike. Being able to control their speed much more easily than on a normal bike gives your child a sense of freedom. At the same time, you can also practise traffic signals, left/right, and being considerate of other road users.

An ideal way to prepare for learning to ride a bike with pedals. Often, your child can skip using training wheels on their pedal bike, because balance is no problem for them.

The activity helps your child develop new skills and is wonderful for your child's well-being:

  • This type of play strengthens your child's gross motor skills. It particularly involves your child's ability to coordinate their legs and arms.
  • Develops your child's vestibular sense, which strengthens balance, concentration, and ability to learn.
