Which of these skills is NOT typical for a 2-year-old?

A 2-year-old typically demonstrates a variety of motor skills that show their developmental progress. Walking, kicking a ball, and clapping are all skills that are commonly observed in children around this age.

Walking is a fundamental skill that most children master well before their second birthday, usually around 12 months. Kicking a ball involves coordination and physical strength that many toddlers begin to develop around this age, as they start to engage more with play activities. Clapping is a social skill that also often appears by this age, as children imitate behaviors they see in adults and older children.

In contrast, riding a tricycle requires a higher level of motor coordination and balance, which typically does not develop until children are around 3 years old. At 2 years old, children may still struggle with the balance and pedaling required to ride a tricycle effectively, making this skill not typical for their age group.
