Pam said...: I think with my step son (who is not very athletic) we had to actually grab his feet and pedal. But I think that was with his two wheeled bike.

If the pedals move themselves when you push the bike, I agree with everyone else; put her feet on the pedals and push.; 5/05/2006 08:33:00 AM
