Fixsen's skate

Our favorite twin family, the Pratts invited us to spend the day at millenium place with them. Wyatt's ear drum had perforated from an ear infection earlier that week so we had to miss the swimming- but we spent te morning on the inflatables, in the play park. After lunch and naps we returned for skating!

It was our first time with the kids. Isla was a natural and zipped around with the frame support. Wyatt found it very frustrating and could not get moving. Girl skates have te benefit of the pick in the front for assisted movement, but on hockey skates wyatt couldn't get anywhere with or without the frame. 
I ended up pushing him around with the frame or me supporting him from the back or side without the frame. It was hard, but we wouldn't let him quit. By the end he was having a bit more fun. I don't think he'll be interested in going again any time soon.
