role-playing is important when children
play with their trikes or other wheeled toys, they quickly become consumed by their play. and their trikes can play whatever role the children like. in this way, such products are always in the game somewhere, right from the youngest children’s games of observation to the older children’s complicated role-playing. a trike is a close ally when adults’ strange behaviour is re-enacted and tried out. and under the right conditions, children manage to convert their specific experience into general understanding – at a speed and with a clarity that researchers find difficult to explain. all it takes is for children to be allowed to play freely. new playmates – with and without wheels! the trike can be a fire engine, and the taxi can be an ambulance. next time around, the trike can just as easily be a horse in the tribe’s battle against the cowboys that have taken cover behind the covered wagons.this makes it possible to link the two very different worlds of physical activity and the children’s fertile imaginations. bikes and trikes accom pany children on the most incredible adventures, from high-drama landings on the planet mars to romantic weddings featuring beautiful princesses. and they can do this because bikes and trikes do not determine how children play, but rather support them in their play activities. 60
