So, we've had a rule of no bike riding in the house. You know, one of those rules you would never think of having until you have children and realize the number of things you need to specify. For Christmas, Santa brought our 5 year old a scooter and our 3 year old a 12" bike. There has been snow on the ground and the weather has been freezing cold - not ideal conditions for riding bikes and scooters. I never considered our house that large, but apparently our long hallway and kitchen covered with linoleum are ideal conditions for bike and scooter riding. So we are bending the rules in celebration of Christmas. Every day, several times a day, they ride up and down the hallway. I'm sure it's not ideal treatment for my floors, but if it keeps my kids happy and burns off some of the extra energy they have from candy and not enough time spent outdoors, I'm happy to bend the rules. Let's just hope come summer they don't still want to ride indoors.
