In a world that increasingly values screen time over outdoor adventures, there’s never been a better moment to encourage children to embrace the fun of riding bikes. We believe that cycling is a fantastic path to freedom, fun, and making some great family memories.
With Christmas approaching, what better way to inspire outdoor fun than by giving a gift that encourages adventure and exploration? This blog shows how Frog bikes can be the perfect gift for your little ones, giving them the freedom to explore the great outdoors and simply enjoy themselves!
At Frog Bikes, we believe in fostering a love for cycling from an early age, and that’s why we love having partners like Mini Bikers! This amazing program is dedicated to introducing young riders to the world of cycling in a fun and engaging way.

While technology has its place, children hugely benefit from spending time outdoors and engaging in physical activities that promote their overall well-being. Among various outdoor activities, cycling stands out as a particularly beneficial one, offering a wide range of physical, mental, and social benefits. Let's explore why encouraging outdoor play, especially cycling, is crucial for children's development. Here are some creative and practical ways to encourage kids to get on their bikes and pedal their way to fun and fitness.

Frog Bikes has been hopping around for 11 fantastic years! As we reflect on this exciting milestone, we’re thrilled to share the 11 invaluable lessons we’ve learned throughout this fantastic journey…
At Frog Bikes, we are dedicated to creating unforgettable cycling experiences for children. We want to introduce you to one of our favourite tools for igniting a lifelong love for cycling: balance bikes. These pint-sized wonders have been making waves in the world of children's cycling, and for good reason.
Once your child has mastered balancing and pedalling a bike, then it’s the perfect time to encourage them to learn some new skills and drills to challenge them.
Riding a bike is a complex task of coordination involving balancing, pedalling, steering and braking. Traditionally, we have been taught to pedal first with stabilisers attached to the bike and then gain balance by removing them. An increasing number of parents are now moving away from this approach, preferring to teach children to balance first.
Training wheels, or stabilisers as we call them in the UK, are the extra wheels that can be mounted parallel to a bicycle's rear wheel to help when learning to ride a bike. They assist by giving a more ‘stable’ feeling until the rider has developed a good sense of balance on their bike.
All children learn differently and the question of whether to use stabilisers or not crops up often and can cause big debates among parents. So we thought we’d do a little research into the pro’s and con’s of these cycling stalwarts to help you decide what’s best for your child!
