Question

Hello, can a two-year-old girl ride a bicycle that is in a private yard on Shabbat? And is it permissible for a parent to lead her on the bicycle and push her?

Answer

Hello 

A two-year-old girl is not subject to the laws of education, so if she does it on her own, there is no problem. 

Regular bicycles are considered muktzeh. 

Tricycles are not muktzeh, and there is no issue with riding them.
