Last Christmas, hubs Santa gave Ashley a pair of Barbie roller skates. Actually they are rollers with straps to be attached to the shoes. I didn’t know Santa would give her this present. He said she told him that she wished she had a pair of roller skates 😛 Of course the missy was happy when she saw the gift.
I was a bit worried that she may fall and hurt herself. Yeah, I’m a Worrier Mum while daddy is the cool one. In case you don’t know, I am a Helicopter Mum too…always hovering out there 🙂 Anyway, after a week or so, Ashley mastered the art of skating.
Yay…the happy one zipping around the house. Dressed in pink from top to toe *slap forehead* She is waiting for us to take her to the park to skate. I don’t think our park is “skate-friendly’ though 🙁
Hihihi, lil missy is a fashionista~ She still looks great, going for skating 🙂
Btw, does she practice in the house? No accident so far, huh?
yes she practices inside the home. so far so good 😛
Cool! My boys got this roller skate too, next time can get them wear together and play.
This roller skates is cool. Ashley is so happy wearing it.
Zoom! Be careful of the TV
Oh, so this is just like a pair of “add on” wheels. Chloe saw a girl “skating” in something similar in a mall recently and she told me she wanted that too.
pair off with safety headset, knee and elbow pads..she is ready for the outdoor or indoor skate rinks..like the one in BSC.
she dons the headset, knee and elbow pads sometimes but the paths at the park are not suitable for skating unless it’s a skating rink.
Wow, Have Fun 😀 Don forget to get her knee protected. 😀
Very nice pair of pink skates! You can bring her to my condo to skate at the tennis court if you want. Make sure to bring her knee & elbow pads and helmet 🙂
I like her pink skates and her pink outfits 🙂
There is an old Chinese saying, “the more you fall down, the faster you will grow up!” so Ashley will grow up in no time!
Barb, no need bring her to the park or etc to skate. Just bring the skates out when u go for your regular shopping! (But not in the supermarket haha). Thats how my kids learn before moving onto ice skating & inline skates. Outside road/park, the floor is too rough, so not suitable for them. If u want a rink, then try Jungle Gym @ BSC. After this, Ash can move on to Heelys shoes :p
Hahhha..yeah i saw some kids doing it at the mall but I find that a bit dangerous, unless she’s wearing the Heelys. She actually asked for a pair of Heelys but we told her that we’ll get it later 😛
Once she is able to skate, u can invest on one Heelys for her. I got for my 2 eldest ones when they were younger & lasted many years. If she decided not to skate anymore, can just remove the wheels and turn it into a normal sneakers 🙂
haha….helicopter mom 😀
kids do pick up very fast, next can move on to ice-skating !!
