Ice Rink Fun

This week's Tiny Tykes Event was playing at the Morgantown Ice Rink.  Bobby has been there a few times before and prefers to run around the bleacher area and stay off of the ice.  This time I took him out for a couple of minutes and then let him have a break.

Walking on the ice.

Time for a break.

He started using the walker to help and I figured out a way to make him go further out on the ice.  I would push the walker out into the middle of the rink (it slides very well) and tell him to "go get it for Mommy" and he would.  This made the times out on the ice much longer.

We tried to get him to let us pull him around in a sled, but no luck.  I even sat in one with him while Daddy pulled us around, but he wasn't having any part of the sled.  Unlike some of our friends Sonny and Joey, they LOVED it!!

All in all, I think the ice rink was a success.  Bobby went out onto the ice with only a verbal prompt.  Each time gets a little easier.  Who knows, maybe one day he will actually skate!!
