     @mycorrhiza @evdas @cyronimose yes, I also recommend the coaster bike approach. Once they've got balance from that, everything else follows.

     This! If you can unscrew the pedals they can more easily use it as a “coaster bike” and learn how to balance and steer. I have taught adults and teens using this exact method.

     practice balancing at rest, practice falling safely, practice coasting
