I'm sure it wasn't racing BMX ….
These kids are four yrs' old...
They were called striders...
As the bike or scooter have no peddles, they had to use foot power to race, it was pretty neat to watch these youngster's...

Here in Aus, they're called Balance bikes. The littlies learn to coordinate forward movement & balance.
Once proficient at that, it a small step to add power by pedals. Weren't around in my day, had to ride or crash.
You learnt after a few crashes. They're pampered nowadays.
