Today’s theme is bike riding =) Well, the weather is getting nice so you gotta start thinking about outdoor activities! I am going to be a full blown Mommy now and lecture. Always, ALWAYS, wear a helmet when doing any potentially dangerous activities. And that includes running. My daughter took a major spill a couple of days ago running up and down our driveway, which has a severe incline. Luckily, she was about to get on her bike so was wearing a helmet. She came careening down the hill and stubbed her toe in the ground and started flying head first for the asphalt. This is all hearsay, thankfully for my emotional well being I did not witness this. She scraped the entire right side of her torso, which she, of course, cried about but if it weren’t for the helmet, I don’t even want to think what would have happened to her head and face. So, always wear a helmet and to make it super cool and cute, get a Tail Wags helmet cover. Comes in many designs like Slope Shark and Lucky Lady for $40.
I got some of these for my kids and they absolutely LOVE them. In fact, sometimes I have to really work at getting them to take their helmets OFF! These covers have been the best $35 I have ever spent to help protect my kids. I got mine at http://www.helmetzoo.com. They have a 10% sale going right now too!
