I don't have any suggestions, other than what mimitabby said about going to a playground/parking lot for more practice. Sounds like she's learning quickly, and will be on her own in no time.
How very sweet that she's learning to ride at 67 and that you're helping her. Proves you're never too old to learn. Good for her!!!

Rebeccah, that just rocks.
Mimi, you've just gotta tell your 40-year-old friend about Rebeccah's 67-y-o "pupil." In July, I took my uncle's 78-y-o friend, who never learned to swim but can float on her back, kayaking for the first time in her life. She loved it. So now that my 74-year-old friend heard that, SHE wants to try it! The power of peer pressure!
