Last month we bought a couple of tricycles for Eleanor and Miranda. When we looked at the tricycles in the store, we were concerned that Miranda’s feet didn’t quite reach the pedals, so we bought her a smaller tricycle. After we got home, we found that the one we bought Eleanor wasn’t the one we tried in the store, so we ended up exchanging it for the same kind that Miranda had.

Eleanor’s able to pedal her tricycle, but she has a bit of trouble steering at the same time. You can see Miranda scoot into the video towards the end.
So far, we’ve been keeping them in an enclosed area by the side of our house. I don’t think we’re ready to take a walk somewhere with them because we didn’t get the tricycles that have a “push bar” that parents can use to help steer them back home.
