A toddler and his rides

On Thu, I went to order a new batch of disposable contact lenses and brought Jon along. He was very well behaved and we decided to reward him with his frst kiddy ride. Turns out our toddler (have to get used to not calling him our baby) was a wee scared of the loud ride and held on with both hands....alll the way till the ride was over. We also put him inside the boat rather than on the seat, since it was his first time and we weren't sure he could balance on it.Then we brought him to the toy store called Toys World. It's the only major toy shop for kids and babies in Miri, apart from those in dept stores. Then we found a bike that's suitable for Jon and us. It was big enough for Jon and comes with a safety rail and foot rests, which are removable when he grows older. Then he can pedal the bike on his own. But in the meantime, there's the handle that's tall enough for us to push the bike without having to bend double. I tell you, without it, we will surely get backache after pushing the ride for a few minutes OK? Jon's one happy camper that day!
