from DU..I sold it and used the money to buy bicycles for the three little Asian girls who live next door. They are ages 3,8 and 10..never had bikes or toys of any sort to speak of (the youngest 3 of 9 children). Two other girls on the block have bikes and would come to play and then leave on their bikes and the ones we got the bikes for could do nothing but watch them go..on their bikes.
The three year old couldn't master the trick to making the pedal come back up to be able to push it down so she could keep going, so we went back to the store and got her a 3 wheeler which she was able to make go. Today she came out and got on the 2 wheeler and away she went! They're good neighbors, and we've never had a problem with any of the kids and figured they deserved the bikes, and besides that, it makes us grin to see them riding. w00t!

edited to be pc.
