Today I Took My 9 Year Old Daughter Ice Skating For The First Time

By Chris • October 7, 2022

Today I took my 9 year old daughter ice skating for the first time. She is such a sweet girl but very nervous, and determined- a tricky combination.

We laced up and she took to the ice with the support frame. As she shuffled along the edge, a young boy approached and asked me if she needed some help. I explained this was her first time.

He explained he played ice hockey and just loved to skate and he explained so beautifully what she should do and he helped her around the rink teaching her as he went. Not too much later his lovely mum joined him and both of them

were helping, teaching and encouraging my daughter.

I lost time, but they would have spent at least an hour with her and we genuinely felt we made new friends.

My daughter hasn’t stopped talking about it. Their kindness and generosity of time and knowledge is imprinted on our hearts and will be such a precious memory for us both.

I can’t wait to see the amazing mark you make in this world Lars, I know you will achieve great things.
