I can't remember where I learned it but, a great way to start kids on a two wheeler without training wheels is to start them on a (very) slight downhill. Make sure the seat is low enough for them to reach ground flat footed. Have them start off walking the bike with big strides done the hill. After they do it a few times have them try holding their feet of the ground. Work your way up to putting them on the pedals and pedaling. They catch on really fast.
