TERVUREN β€” Your kid can master the art of cycling too. Kijk! Ik fiets is coming back to Tervuren. The initiative aims to help the youngest transition confidently from training wheels or balance bikes to fully independent cycling.

Led by a team of experienced coaches, this program offers practical tips to ensure the youngest riders learn safely and efficiently. The process is hands-on: children ride while their parents run alongside, gradually letting go as the little ones gain confidence and balance.

This program is tailored for children aged 4 and older. Families are required to bring their own bikes and helmets, emphasizing safety as a top priority. Registration is mandatory via the municipal website, and spots are filling fast.

The statistics say that 42% of Tervurenaars consider it is safe for their children to cycle to school. But 40% feel it is not. Learning to cycle, though, is an essential skill for kids in Tervuren. And the journey from home to primary school provides an ideal opportunity for children to practice and learn how to navigate traffic. All that under the watchful eye of their parents.

The moment the kids pedal solo marks a proud milestone, celebrated with the award of a “Kijk! Ik fiets” diploma.
