My Project

Please help me support my Small Group Physical Education Class work on their balancing skills. My students are hard working students who need extra support to build strength and coordination. The lightweight 16” Strider balance bikes that I have requested will teach riding basics to the littlest riders up to 8 year old students, develop balance, coordination, steering, riding skills and, most importantly- their confidence.

Transitioning to a pedal bike before they are ready for that extra weight and size is detrimental for a child's overall riding success.

My students are so eager to learn and experience new things, and these balance bikes will give them an opportunity to find a life long hobby that they can continue for the rest of their lives.
