My son was three on Friday, he too will not pedal on his trike that he has, but does love to ride. Just can't do it on his own, he loves it when we push him. So we got him a kids BMX bike with a parent handle that we can use to steer him. We take it for walks in the arvo & he loves it (we gave it to him early a few weeks ago). He's now getting really good with the pedals!

Otherwise, what does he like or what do you like to do with him? My DH is away lots for work so we try to get them to do things together without me, one thing he likes is fishing so we got him his own fishing rod, also books with CD's (he loves me reading to him at night, but not always easy when BF DS2).

Some small things he got at his party that he just loves, a Thomas watch, never thought to get him a watch but he's worn it everyday since his birthday. He also got a torch that you shine on the wall & it has a pic of a space ship onn it & you can change the pictures over....gone to sleep with that every night.

And I second the train set, he spends hours with his trains & mega blocks building bridges & tunnels. HTH.
