On Thursday, March 19, 2020, Norah rode her bike by herself for the first time. We had practiced a bit in the fall, but the activity had fallen out of favor over the winter. On Thursday, we practiced with me offering back-up via an old karate belt wrapped under her arms. A neighbor's suggestion, this is much easier on my back than holding her, and it makes her more responsible for balance too.
After a couple laps up & down our street this way, she told me she wanted to try it herself. We pointed her bike down a gentle slope and she was off!
Biking is currently her favorite activity!
