How do I help my toddler who is 21 months from not being scared and want to get off little toddler cars. He is fine in his real trike, which straps him in around the waist. If it is because of this, what advice can you give to slowly help
him get over his fear.
I agree with mrslunar, if your son is too scared of something don't press the issue. However, I did learn something great from The Little Gym (http://www.thelittlegym.com/). Your child do whatever they see you do. If you play with the toddler car yourself, then you are modeling to your son that it is not that scary. I know it sounds silly, but being parents we've all done siller things :) I don't realy have this problem myself because Matthew is a fearless little man. He often dives into things even if it hurts him, but he does look up at me and my husband to see how to use things and to figure out how things work.
