I haven’t given an update on how my school has been going for my Princess. I was nervous about quitting homeschooling, but of course by the end of the first day, she was a pro. She made friends with all her classmates, and by the end of the first week, her teacher told us that it was like she was there the whole year.
We are busy with this school. She has field trips and after school programs. She loves it. I am already feeling tired. It seems like just yesterday she was riding trikes and now she is skating at the local skating rink with all her new friends.
My Princess hadn’t been to a roller skating rink before but, she was excited. She realized it was harder than she was expecting. Thankfully, our local roller skating rink had plastic-type walkers to help keep the kids upright. My husband and I hadn’t been to a roller skating rink in years, but it’s like riding a bike. You don’t forget!
In addition to visiting the local roller skating rink, we’ve also been to a retirement home to play bingo, a Canadian Brass concert, had a play date, and started a LEGO afterschool program. Next month, she’ll start a conversational Spanish afterschool program. She is loving school and we are too! It was a great decision for our family.
Have you been roller skating lately?
(First Time at the Roller Skating Rink) How great for her to learn, and it is scary. I like the plastic walker thing to help the beginners out too. When I was younger we would go every weekend to the local skating rink across the river from our house. We always had a good time-
Wish I”d had the walker helper thing when I was learning to skate 60 years ago. Haven’t been skating in a long time.
I’m in college now and haven’t roller bladed (I didn’t try roller skating) since I was twelve. I was thinking of taking out the blades again, but even back then I was bad at it. …
I haven’t roller skated in years! I have cerebral palsy so I look funny but I enjoy it anyway. Glad your daughter likes school! That’s wonderful! What about roller blading? kristiedonelson(at)gmail(dot)com Thank you.
So glad the transition went so well for her! Looks like she was enjoying her self. I remember taking my son for the fist time through his school a couple years ago, he struggled a bit and probably could have used a walker thing to help too.
