This year we found out about the Ice Palace in Coverdale. Apparently they've had it since the mid-nineties. They take one of the ice rinks, add Christmas Lights, trees and figurines and have public skating all day for most of the month of December and all of the Christmas holidays. We had a bit of trouble getting Callie on the ice. She didn't like how tight the skates had to be and we went through 4 different pairs and two helmets before we could get her on the ice.
Carter had no problem at all. I might have to see about signing him up for hockey in the next few years. He wasn't too stable but we still had fun with me pushing him around on the ice.
Once we got Callie on the ice she seemed to have a bit of fun though it didn't last very long. She's still using the skating helper thingy but she's pretty close to not needing it. Last year she managed to skate with just me holding her hand. Perhaps we'll go out skating a few more times this year and she'll feel more confident.
For anyone that has checked the Ice Palace out it's a great public skate around Christmas time!
