We’ve had this train for 10 years and each of my kids have used it to help learn their alphabet, letter sounds, learning to walk and ride. This has been the absolute best!

My kids stay so engaged when they’re listening to their tonie box! And it’s awesome to keep their attention so well without a screen!

My son was riding a pedal bike with no training wheels at 3 years old thanks to starting him off on this balance bike!
Balance bikes
We transitioned our son to this 14” balance bike when he started BMX on the strider track. It’s a 14”, so slightly bigger than your average balance bike, and he thrived on it! Moved on to a pedal bike with no training wheels very quickly!

Such a good scooter for young riders who don’t quite have the concept of balancing yet. The adjustable handlebars and the lean to steer function make it a perfect starter scooter.

These puzzle pieces are so easy for small hands to grab and manipulate into the correct places. Definitely love these for working on hand eye coordination, fine motor skills, and problem solving.
