cmp3400 Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I must admit, I had never considered that my DS's inability to read had anything to do with his inability to ride a bike or catch/hit a ball. But after getting his results from the COVD Dr it made sense! Now after 1 month of VT (2 days in the office and 4 days on the computer at home) he can ride a bike. He has tried so hard for so long and it finally just happened! I know I can not say for sure it is the VT, but I really think it helped!

IsabelC Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 (edited) That's wonderful, he must be very pleased with himself :D My son has just got going on his rollerblades, so I know how happy it makes them to master something like that. (ETA: It's nice to know that a lot of kids learn bike riding a bit later - I was starting to get worried about my 4yo who still can't ride her two wheeled bike more than a few meters - both the others were riding by 3, so I was feeling bad that we hadn't taken enough time to teach #3) Edited September 22, 2012 by Hotdrink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mukmuk Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 That's awesome!! Congratulations! (Hasn't happened for DS yet but he needs VT). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walking-Iris Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 My ds is close to 10 and still learning. Riding a bike is just something you never think about right? So taken for granted. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinNY Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 My dtr just turned 11. She finally rode her bike this past weekend. She also took off with swimming this summer. This summer is when she was able to start attacking multisyllabic words. I noticed the same phenomenon with my other dyspraxic son. Once he took off with bike riding (age 9), he took off with reading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
