I really don't remember my first bike, but I know it was a two-wheeler. There are very few pictures from my childhood, so I can't say precisely. However there was this one bike that I remember riding every day I could for a couple of years at least. It had handlebars like a Harley and a banana-seat. Remember those? Loved it!
The reason for this little memory exercise is because there's a bike giveaway at 5 Minutes For Moms: a Strider balance bike. I need Need NEED one for my son! He's still learning how the pedals work on a bike and has already outgrown his tricycle. (I wish I could get him a new bike, but so far more important luxuries like food and electricity come first.) Check out the Strider bikes here.
The most sacred thing is a child's innocence;
his trust the most inviolate.

The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new.

Darn food and electricity... no fun at all. Balance bikes definitely are more fun!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it so frustrating when we can't afford all the fun things in life. I am sorry... and I do hope you win... your chances are high as there aren't very many entries so far.
Thanks, Susan. Here's hoping!
ReplyDeleteI hope you win too! I just got my son a bike from Goodwill, it was brand new and really cheap. Toys are so expensive...
