Strider Balance Bike {Review and #Giveaway}

Learning to ride a bike is a right of passage.  I think every one has a memory of riding their bike.  I had a bike that I loved cruising on through my neighborhood with reckless abandon.  Oh to be a kid again...

Oh boy! What a weekend. We almost got through it too. It was 5 minutes past bedtime but Sawyer was playing so contently. What were a few more minutes of him playing really going to do? Well, Sunday night it did quite a bit.  He fell right into his wooden activity cube he was playing with and sliced his forehead pretty good. At first hubby & I weren't sure what to do. The bleeding stopped … [Read more...]
