best Christmas gifts for 5-year-old boy

Ask any five-year-old boy what he wants and the list is loud, but the gift he is still riding next summer is a bicycle. Among the best Christmas gifts for a 5-year-old boy, a 16 inch bike lands in the sweet spot, training wheels for now, a coaster brake a small leg can stomp and a hand lever he can reach, all on a low frame he can throw a leg over without help. Five is the age the stabilizers start feeling optional, and the afternoon he pedals the yard alone for the first time is the afternoon a tablet quietly loses. Every push of the cranks stacks his leg strength, balance and nerve, and a tough frame forgives the curb strikes and tip-overs of a kid learning to ride. Set one beside the tree and start a tradition. Discover his perfect five-year-old ride below.
