[quote=bearishgurl]flu, IMHO a toddler is too young to learn ice skating or tennis. Swim lessons are a good idea, though, esp. if a parent can participate with the child.
Ice skating should be begun at six years old and tennis 8-9 years old. Before these ages, children do not yet possess the attention spans to understand what it is they are supposed to do in these sports, IMO.[/quote]
That’s what I thought, except my toddler seems to be pretty attentive when I take her on the ice more so than swimming. I guess different strokes from different folks…And definitely, she’s much more attentive when it ‘s a real instructor teaching than me (she knows she can goof off a bit with me, and get away with it).
