 Play Benefits

• Allows your child to develop their sense of balance, a key motor skill, and have bucket loads of fun at the same time.
• The transition to a pedal bike when they are 4 – 6 years old is a breeze without the need for stabilisers.
• Encourages outdoor play which enhances mood.
• They build leg, arm and grip strength which is so important for physical play and school readiness.
• The development of bi-lateral co-ordination (co-ordinating both sides of the body) occurs as they use alternate legs or both legs in unison to propel themselves forward. This encourages connections between both sides of the brain which is vital for future learning.
