My little boy is 2 now and is too big for all his riding toys. I'm thinking it's time for a tricycle. He isn't ready for a bike yet. He still trips over his own feet.
I took him to Toys-R-Us and they have quite a variety of brightly-colored poorly-designed pieces of crap. the old Radio Flyers looked extremely poorly made, and the new plasticy stupid looking big-wheel type things didn't impress me either. There was one that wasn't too bad, but it had a really high seat back (presumably for a parent to hold on to), and the poor little guy couldn't get his leg over the seat to climb off the thing without falling.
does anyone know of a decent tricycle? I don't mind spending a little more, cuz we intend to have more kids, and if it holds up, I can eventually sell it on Ebay for about 5% less than retail (sorry for the Ebay comment, I'm getting off topic)
Yes I know about the Litespeed $800 tricycle. That's ridiculous. I'm looking for something in between.
