I think in Canada, the little ones learn to crawl, then to walk, then to skate. How else can they progress to ice hockey before they've even started school? Boo has observed the skaters on the mountain-top skating pond at Grouse Mountain on a number of occasions, but always been reluctant to don the skates and have a go herself ( and yes, she's in the smallest size they offer for rental). How proud is mama then, when she welcomed the proposal, put on the skates, and managed to make her way around the pond, not once but twice! I'm sure other little ones get out there and go for it at the first opportunity, but our little Boo is a cautious one physically and I am always so thrilled when she relaxes and gives something a go.
