Joovy Bicycoo BMX Balance Beginners Bike
This past December Santa’s elves made an early appearance and left a Joovy Bicycoo BMX balance bike for both Emma and Ethan.

We both agreed on a particular wrap, but the inconvenience of hauling around yards of fabric made it difficult to bring and put on during trips to the store etc. We both agreed there had to be a better option out there... and so I began the hunt. I had less than 2 months before … [Read more...]
