BikeEd: Kids I PDF Print E-mail

Kids I is a nationally recognized curriculum created by the League of American Bicyclists (LAB) and taught by our League Certified Instructors (LCIs).

Kids I can be taught as a on-hour course specifically for parents or a three-hour course for parents and children.  Either way the concentration is on the parents, as they (you!) have the greatest impact in their child's safety.

Length: 1 hour or 3 hours

Objectives:

  • To set a good example of safe riding skills.
  • To become aware of the most common causes of children's bicycling accidents.
  • To always wear a helmet.
  • To stop and look before entering a road or a street.
  • To ride with traffic on the right side of the street.
  • To ride in a straight line and look before turning or changing direction.
  • To ride only during daylight hours.

Topics:

  • ABC Quick Check
  • Bike Fit
  • Starting and Stopping
  • Scanning
  • Signaling
  • Helmet Fit
  • Rules of the Road
  • Benefits of Education
  • Tips for Parents
  • Child Development
