balance bike
Toddler's gliding cycle
A balance bike is a child's bicycle without pedals, designed to teach toddlers balance and steering before they graduate to a conventional bike.
The child sits on the seat and propels forward by pushing their feet against the ground: She learned on a balance bike and skipped training wheels entirely.
