I made the decision that the kids were within the right age now to know to ride bikes, they didn’t have much choice in buying it to be honest, neither have ever shown much curiosity about kids bikes, they was keen on games that didn’t require any exercise, thus decided to go shopping in quest of kids bikes in order to avoid them becoming like those ridiculously obese kids that you see on television documentaries.
When I told my kids that I was going to take them to the shops to buy them kids bikes, they groaned, complaining that bikes weren’t what they wanted, they wanted cars like they had been driving in their computer games. I told them that this was impossible for at least another 10 years until they were old enough, and that even that would depend on a lottery win. So off to the shops we went to look for two kids bikes.
We arrived at the bikes shop and I couldn’t believe how my kids changed their moods. They stopped groaning and actually seemed quite keen. When I say keen, the kids hadn’t even looked at the kids bikes, they were too busy messing around with other things in the shop. I talked to member of staff, and he was saying that it was worth testing the kids out on some of the kids bikes first to make sure they were the right size kids bikes for them. I thought that this was a brilliant idea, so I bribed them with the offer of some fast food to come over and sit down on a couple of kids bikes to try them out for size.
When I’d finally got them to reluctantly go with a number of kids bikes (which I had to bribe all of them about 24 kids happy meals each), I felt relieved that they can would finally be getting some decent exercise. For a while both kids did actually love their kids bikes, racing the other person across the street, making car noises, but this appeared to die of immediately and yes it was back to the video games and toys along with the kids bikes went in to the garage.
Sometimes the youngsters bikes do get an airing, every week on a Friday after school, as soon as they obtain their pocket money, but that’s only because their bikes cause them to become the chip shop more rapidly than going for walks.
kids bikes will definitely keep my kids pleased this summer. Make sure you hit your local bike retailer and buy an amazing kids bike for an healthy alternative to games.
