I got Rayven a few different ride ons/trikes last year. All were found for free from local ads. He grew out of the hippo & grew into this trike. He can pedal it now 🙂

He wanted to go outside & ride, after eating.

Learning to ride with Aunt Lori: Generational knowledge is our responsibility to our heritage - West River Eagle

Throughout history, knowledge has been passed down from generation to generation through stories, observation, and practice, especially in Indigenous cultures. Recognizing that June is Children and Education Month, it is an opportune time to reflect on the importance of passing down generational knowledge and to highlight the value of learning from those who came before us.

She spent today with (her uncle) Iain, continuing #LearningToRide and so we are bereft of the ever-curious, energy-filled, little chatterbox (;*

The silence is wonderful q;*

Elena can now use the brakes, though it did take damaging the front reflector to get her to realise that she needed to learn to stretch her fingers that little bit more to reach them (;*

#LearningToRide

In a hiatus from bike riding we took another walk in #Watermead North Country Park, and discovered what we think is to be a maze, and also a Reedbed Nature Reserve that is only open three days of the week, closed on the day.

Elena definitely wants to take a look when it's next open.

The weather isn't looking good for tomorrow, hopefully the afternoon will be better which will give me chance to run Elena through using the brakes on her bike.

She's not been going fast enough to warrant brake usage sooner, though as she gets more confidence she'll definitely be needing them eventually.

I'll admit the bell incident was a close call, hence teaching her about them tomorrow.

No harm done to anything else, just the bell.

Managed to get her to #ThePark again just before more rain. She's got the knack of arranging the pedals to start now and getting much better with riding and stopping. The next thing to learn will be braking and slowing down. She went into a tree and managed to damage her bell just as we were coming back.

So, quite successful yesterday. She's got the idea, though she ended up having another bike since her original one is too small for her and the back brake had seized up.

The only trouble she has is with starting off, but once she's going she's great, though she does get distracted a little too easily and ends up going in circles until she falls over.

But, for the first time without stabilisers she's not doing badly at all.
