Read It
In honor of Bicycle Day, have your child read the passage below.
It's Bicycle Day!
A bike with one wheel is called a unicycle.
A bike with two wheels is called a bicycle.
And a bike with three wheels is called a tricycle.
A bike rider is called a cyclist.

If you have a bicycle and outgrow it, but then you give it to your little sister, you are recycling.

Explain It
