What should parents know before buying cycles for their children?

A child’s first friend is usually their first cycle. Learning to ride a bike at a very young age. Learning how to cycle at a very young age boosts confidence and is a life skill at any given phase in life.

The right cycle for a child is not only important in the aspect they like it but also because it creates mind-muscle coordination, improves the muscle strength in the back and legs and also promotes a healthy lifestyle at a very young age. A common mistake made; is that some parents buy a bigger cycle on the assumption that their child will outgrow them, and then they need to buy a cycle again shortly. This could be slightly dangerous because the child's height is the base on which the cycle should be chosen.

If the wrong size is chosen, the child may not be comfortable, might face issues with reaching the pedal and may not be able to place their feet on the ground and ultimately lose balance and end up hurting themselves. This may give them a fear of learning to cycle. A 5-year-old kid is not the same as another 5-year-old or any age for that matter. One may be taller or shorter than the other. Therefore, a cycle should not be chosen based on their age, but their height. Ideally, a child should be able to place both feet on the ground, with both legs on either side of the cycle tube and stand comfortably.

This way, the child will be able to reach the handlebar properly and while being seated, their feet will reach the pedal to ride the bike.

Should they grow one or two inches taller, the cycle seat can be adjusted accordingly while they ride the bike. Another support that could come in handy while learning how to cycle new is the training wheels. Training wheels give the child confidence and courage while learning. It also teaches them how to balance slightly. Once the child is confident enough, the child can cycle without the training wheels, and they would be able to balance the cycle perfectly.

It is recommended that the cycle is bought in the terms of the child’s height rather than the age, though the internet recommends buying the cycle concerning the age and the wheel size.
