How do you teach your kid to ride a bike?

Hello-
My daughter is about to turn seven and still hasn’t learned to ride without training wheels. It’s putting a serious cramp in the visions of family biking I have in my head. Does anyone have any tips? We did the NPS learn to bike program, but taking the pedals off and learning to glide hasn’t worked well for her since she gets scared if she gets going fast enough to balance. I do have a sneaking suspicion that maybe her bike is too big for her, so I’m interested in any views on the size of the bike too. More than one bike shop has assured me that the bike is the right size, but out on the trail, when I see a little kid pedaling around confidently on a bike, it always looks like a much smaller bike than what she has. I appreciate any advice.
Thanks!
