How does this thing work?

This is a very special tricycle.

If I'm not mistaken, it began it's journey at least 6 years ago in Brazil.  It arrived in Bangladesh taken apart in our dear friends' suitcase. It was used by their son, passed on to another wonderful little boy, and then our sweet Ellie had her turn with it. Once she outgrew it, it was passed on to a beautiful, active little girl nine months younger than Ellie. And, now that the other sweet girl is on to bigger and better things and our little Abraham is a mover and shaker, he now gets to use this tricycle.

I told you it was special.
