I deployed out of Fort Jackson so my wife took our daughter to the Children's Museum in Columbia which was really nice.Concur. They've done a really nice job with that zoo.Riverbanks zoo in Columbia.
Edventure and the State Museum aren't too far away from it either, if you want to make a day of it.
we've already told family we are going non motorized for the outdoor rideons.Just put together the Tow Mater power quad that my sister ordered for MiniFF's 2 year birthday tomorrow. I'm fearing that i went on our last walk him with on his trike tonight... He's gonna wanna go on his electric truck for awhile and have nothing to do with his bike.
My father spent a few weeks after he took off the training wheels, walking/running next to the bike with the plan of "if you fall I'll catch you". One day he ran forward about twenty feet, then stopped.Any tips for teaching your kids to ride a bike without training wheels? My son loves riding his bike, but completely refuses to get on it now that I took the training wheels off. I kept them on at our previous house because the cul-de-sac we lived on was too steep to do any learning on, and now that we're at the new house with flatter streets, he won't try it. The frustrating part is that he keeps asking to go outside and ride bikes with his friends (including a couple younger ones already riding without training wheels), but decides to ride his scooter instead as soon as he remembers the TW's are removed. He's always been one of those kids that won't do anything until he knows he can do it perfectly (didn't talk until he was 18 months, but jumped right into 2-3 word sentences).
Yep. Anyone can teach him, except you. Both of my boys learned to ride a bike from someone other than their parents...It wasn't because we hadn't tried to teach them, we tried. Many hours, many tears (mostly on our part). The oldest learned from the neighbor who was 2y older, the second learned from his brother and one of his friends, both 5y older...I think it's an independence thing...knowing you can do it w/o mom or dad...and come to think of it my grandma taught me how to ride a bike...Any tips for teaching your kids to ride a bike without training wheels?

Update: when we got home from school today he asked if he could ride his bike. We pulled it out, he put on his helmet, then got on and just started riding. He didnt want me to touch it or help, so I just stood there and watched him go. He struggled the first couple of attempts but eventually got it and was riding like a champ within minutes.
He actually got disappointed when I made him stop because it was getting dark.
Im definitely a proud dad.

I'm with you on that one. Minisnick loves to swiffer the kitchen floor and do laundry.My kid asked to clean the floors this evening. My kitchen floor is sparkling. People keep telling me he'll grow out of cleaning, but I'm not rushing that. I'm hyping cleaning for all it's worth.
Will he fold laundry? If so, is he up for adoption?I'm with you on that one. Minisnick loves to swiffer the kitchen floor and do laundry.
he tries to fold clothes. MInisnick is good at the loading and unloading of the washer and dryer.Will he fold laundry? If so, is he up for adoption?I'm with you on that one. Minisnick loves to swiffer the kitchen floor and do laundry.
