Knucklebones’ Micro Wheels teaches the fundamentals of learning to ride a bicycle without training wheels! Each class your Knucklebones’ Coach will bring in a variety of unique wheeled, and non-wheeled products to help build gross motor skills, balance, and confidence. Class will begin with a brief stretch and activity to get participants up and moving. From there we will introduce a new activity involving wheeled vehicles such as scooter boards, three-wheel scooters, balance bicycles, and finally progressing to a bicycle. As well, we will include an array of diverse games and activities such as balance beams, balancing stones, street signs, an obstacle course, and more to help these determined drivers develop the skills needed to ride safely, successfully and have FUN!

History
Knucklebones began by accident in 2004 when Mitch, Founder and CVO, was the athletics director of a summer camp. Midway through summer he was asked by several parents if he could provide the same unique games the kids played at camp at birthdays. Mitch was thrilled to be able to play even more than usual and, of course, said “YES!”
Since the early days of birthdays, we have continued to follow our clients’ requests. Today, we play anywhere and everywhere including (but not limited to) child cares, extended day programs, schools, recreation departments, colleges, community organizations, camps, private events, libraries, mothers groups, senior centers and corporations. Beginning summer of 2011 we diversified, becoming retailers for over 100 of the top manufactures of athletically inspired products.
