My pre-k scholars do not have an outdoor facility or equipment that adequately caters to the development of their gross motor skills. The addition of tricycles will be a fantastic start for my overall goal in revamping our outdoor imaginative play area.
"Tricycles for Toddlers" is hopefully the start to many more projects that will fund an outdoor area that caters to not only those on the path to grow and development, but our children who have special needs as well.
During the preschool years, children's' bodies grow and develop quickly. They learn to handle their gross and fine motor movements and coordinate their bodies in complex ways. Pedaling a tricycle requires the use of these skills, while steering requires the child to move their hands. Most children have trouble maneuvering their new tricycle, but with effort they gradually learn what they need to do. My students need these tricycles to begin their journey.
They will certainly enjoy these tricycles because in they are eager to learn how things work and how to perform simple tasks on their own. A tricycle is a symbol of freedom for kids this age, and they will work hard to master its use and gain their independence.
