When I was growing up my Aunt and I had a great game where I would refer to myself as her favorite niece and she referred to herself as my favorite Aunt. Though it was for fun at the time, she truly has grown to be my favorite auntie. She's mischievous and merry and we share the same name, really what's not to love. So needless to say, since becoming an auntie about a year and a half ago, it's been my goal to become my nephew's favorite Aunt (sorry Emma). Too young to appreciate monetary bribes, not quite capable of being wowed by my superior sense of humor and impervious to flattery for now, my nephew is subject to my only available weapon - toys. Until recently my gifts received acceptable yet not quite glowing receptions. Then I make a breakthrough with the Steer and Stroll Tricycle from Radio Flyer. He flipped! As soon as he saw the red and blue box he knew right away what it was. "Bi-cle! Bi-cle" he kept yelling as my husband struggled to assemble the trike. With glee my nephew scooped up the seat, placed it on his head and squealed with delight. His parents seemed to like it too. My nephew hates to sit in the stroller for too long and the trike is a nice compromise. It has a long handle in the back that allows an adult to navigate as the child pedals away. Its only downfall is the little bell on the handle bars that is somewhat headache inducing. I'm not sure how to top it, but I'll keep you posted.

Good Luck and Good Shopping!
