Experiences Matter: Hippo Rides a Bike

Hippo Rides a Bike offers a gentle introduction to the experience of learning to ride a bike for young children.

When Hippo gets a new bike for his birthday, he is sure he will be able to ride it straight away. But it isn’t as easy as he thought it would be, and he gets very frustrated! Aunty Hippo helps him to keep trying and not give up.

This funny, charming story is the perfect way to introduce young children to the experience of learning how to ride a bike. Also included are suggestions for activities and ideas to talk through together to help children reflect on their own experiences.
