When Ulysses was 2 years, I thought to give him a tricycle.
At that time he was full with his "Rondi" (a species of rhinoceros, which had already lost several body parts). Through the house at full speed. I really enjoyed it. What's more, as of today, still uses it and I think that is the object with the most time played so far. He was also the typical toy drive and another who was to learn to walk, a very cute puppy ears, but moving towards a terrible noise.
But approaching the day of the meet and I wanted to give a tricycle. That year was not met in baseball, so he wanted to give something nice.
I leave on Saturday morning (the birthday fell on a Sunday) and there begin a series of errors.
1 - I'm going to the toy store without Ulysses. You think you know the dimensions of your child. But it is not so. In the toy had a lot of tricycles: The common and little ones, Barney, police motorcycle ... and Duck.
2 - I look at the tricycle more sympathetic, more colorful .. I loved the Duck. I still do not take into account the size of Ulysses.
3 - I ask the seller (he had less idea than me) a tricycle for a child who is 2 years shows me the little one, that of Barney .. and the Duck
4 - Do not examined in great detail the trike (I had already decided, I had the Duck)
5 - Buy the Duck.
6 - I come home in the Duck.
is today, almost two years later (Uli on August 20 is 4 years), the feet do not reach the pedals. You can not give full circle ... It is a giant duck, designed for guys who when they get to handle it, prefer to extract the record and ask the car to the father.
Pegaditas under the seat (that I find out days later), had a label saying "Not suitable for children under 3 years." And they fell short. When I go down the street and I see similar tricycles (there are white ducks, roses, yellow like Uli) will never see the kids to pedal ... Always push ... Why do not reach the pedals! That
a bit .. I'm glad I'm not alone .. From this alone the idea of \u200b\u200bme giving advice ...
not trust your visual memory. Take the child in question to the toy.
Ducks are still many loose!

Ulises In this picture three years. Look at the distance between the pedals and their little feet!!
