Change is difficult for many people. In trying to transition Trey Davey from his beloved toddler Cozy Coupe to a new preschooler tricycle, we have met resistance. He loves his car even though he’s physically outgrown it. Research finds children especially more comfortable in their routines and with familiar places, objects and faces because they lack the control over their lives that adults enjoy. When they find themselves in the midst of change, children can feel confused, afraid and even hostile. On the other hand, children are very adaptable to change, especially when they are prepared well in advance. We intend to transition to tricycles by vacation time and believe sentimental Davey will be ready by then to move on from his first love to begin a summer romance with his new three wheeled friend.
