Dp taught dsd to ride w/o training wheels by wrapping a towel around her waist and running beside her holding the two ends-that way he could steady her if she got wobbly w/o actually holding onto the bike-I think it helped her be more aware of when she was getting wobbly and taught her to self-correct a little more. She was about 7 and learned in just a few days of maybe an hour practice per day in a parking lot. I thought this was a really clever way of doing it!
