Skating lessons

Last weeks I signed Brandon up for ice skating lesson's. He wants to be a "hockey kid". The pictures are kind of dark which is why I take the little movies too. Here the kids are going around the ice rink and to keep them entertained. The teachers said that they are penguins and polar bears are chasing them. She gathers them together in a "cave" and talks to them for a minute. His teacher told me that he is the fastest and the best penguin ever.
She had them practice sliding on their tummys while they were penguins and Brandon loved that. She told me that she is going to work on showing Brandon how to stop with the skates rather than falling down all the time. He goes really fast and then doesn't know how to stop so he just falls.

Hopping on the ice.

hopping and then falling....
