We are considering getting ds a bike for xmas, ds is 42" last time we measured in September tried out the 12" at toys r us and the 16" and the 12" seems too small for him. He hasn't had any tricycle experience so this would be his first pedal ride on. The 16" seems a little big, he can touch the ground on his toes, is this what we should be getting him? I know they make 14" but they are pretty hard to find on sale. The 16" bike i am looking at at toys r us, says the rec. age is 4-8, so if ds is taller than would that be the right choice? Ds won't be getting a whole lot of use out of the bike for a couple months as it we live in the cold midwest and I hope to just have him practice riding it in the garage until spring.
So what do others think? What size bike does your taller 3 year old have?
