iCan Shine Bike Camps are an amazing program for kiddos with special needs.
Approximately 80% of the people who participate in iCan Bike program learn to ride a conventional two-wheel bicycle independently (at least 75 feet with no assistance) by the end of our five-day program while attending for only 75 minutes each day!
Unfortunately, the nearest iCan Bike program is 60 minutes away, and the cost for two little boys would be rather expensive. Plus our boys might be a bit young yet for the program this summer.
That is why we are doing our own version of
iCan Shine Bike program:
1. Buy training wheels for Abigail/Lydia's little girl bike- not sure what happened to our boy bike. Sorry, Ben and Jonah...this is what happens to tail enders!
2. Buy good bike helmets.
3. Put kid on bike.
4. Give him a push down the driveway and see what happens...just kidding. We held on to bike and ran with him!
Jonah actually did pretty good. Ben was too scared to do anything more than sit on the bike.
Have I mentioned before that for all Ben's toughness, he is actually a huge chicken? Most things Ben is too scared to try while Jonah is an absolute dare devil with no fear in him! What a funny combo!
Anyway, it's our first try at learning the bike. The boys are too big for the bike trailer, double stroller and tricycle so this is the next logical step for them.
We'll see how it goes.
