Tricycle

Penny is relatively obsessed with bicycles, tricycles, and even skateboards so we knew we needed to get her a tricycle. I planned to get her one two months ago, but I was saving up for a few more amazon gift cards and waiting for a bit of a sale. I finally ordered one and it came today. She loves it! Inexplicably, she will not let me push her around on it. Only Daddy may push her. I am trying not to be too offended. As I relax while he pushes her around the yard for the 100th time. :)
We ordered the Kettler Go Green one. Sarah told me about it because Tessa got one for Easter. They are made from recycled materials, which just makes me feel a lot better about buying a plastic tricycle. Also, Kettler makes most of it's products in Germany.



We ordered the pushbar that fits the trike, only to discover that a run of the mill broom/gardening implement replacement handle fits it just fine, so the pushbar will be going back to amazon.



It'll be awhile yet before she can pedal it herself, but she will already attempt to put her feet on there for a little bit at the time. I ordered her a helmet too, but it hasn't arrived yet. I don't think she needs it in our yard, but I hope to take her to the park with it soon. She always sees all the other kids with theirs at the park and now she can join in.
