Top 3 Picks - Bikes for Toddlers This Year
Bicycles and childhood are as expected and appreciated as peanut butter and grape jellies. We have all seen the feel-good television scenarios where parents are holding the back of their kiddo’s bike, letting go when the youngster finds their stride and pedals off down the neighborhood.Truth be told, if those movies are comedies, the kids might wind up in a bush or two before getting the hang of it—but I digress.
The best toddler bicycles are modern and handcrafted with 2016 in mind. While some are built for balance, others are classic, but both are heaps of childhood learning and fun.
The following three toddler bikes are top-notch, running the gamut between beginner and adventure-ready.
