Been working with my 6 year old on this for months. Today he just took off down the driveway and didn't fall. I literally had to sit down because my legs felt weak. My wife got it on video. This is the best day ever.
This is the stuff right here. Those months of practice probably felt endless but I bet that first solo run felt like he won the lottery. Frame this moment somehow.
This is one of those dad wins that feels so good. All that patience and practice actually worked. Did you get it on video?
That moment never gets old. I remember just standing in the driveway watching mine go and feeling like I witnessed something huge. Congrats to your 6 year old, that's legit amazing.
Months of work paying off right there. The patience it takes to let them figure it out without grabbing the seat... you earned this one. How many times did he eat pavement before today?
Dude yes! That first time they take off on their own is such a rush. I still remember my son doing this last year. Six months later and he's basically a pro.
Congrats! That's awesome. Now brace yourself because once they figure it out, they're gonna want to ride everywhere all the time.

That's HUGE! Months of work finally paying off. How did he feel about it? My daughter was so pumped when she finally got it, and now she won't stop riding.
