   We taught our son to ride a bike without training wheels. The idea is to start with a bike that has no pedals and is small enough for the kid to sit on with his feet on the ground (you can buy wooden bikes designed for this purpose, but we just took the pedals off of a small bike). The kid scoots the bike with his feet, learning how to balance and steer with no fear of falling since he can just put his feet down. Learning to pedal is easy if you don’t have to learn to balance at the same time.
