Last weekend, my son started his first hockey school. It’s basically a learn-to-skate with a bit of hockey thrown in. He seemed to like it and more importantly, I loved it! It was quite exciting to see him skating around in hockey equipment and I knew a couple of the other hockey dads which made for a good time.
There were a ton of kids and lots of instructors and while it seemed like a bit of a zoo, it was extremely well organized. There was even a dog in the (very) crowded dressing room to add to the fun.

Thanks for the mention Mike!
No doubt a proud moment for Dad.
Cheers!
Thanks for including us! I remember going to power skating camps as a tyke. They are definitely very effective for producing better hockey players. Unfortunately I had a lot more fun pretending to be Mario Lemeiux with a puck and stick!
Thanks for the mentions, Mike! That looks more fun (and organized) than the gymnastics class that I took my daughter to this week. Toddlers don’t really take direction too well in a giant indoor playground 😉
Thanks for the love Mike. A couple more years and your son should be able to show the Leafs how to play hockey! 😉
@MOA – Yes, I was very proud.
@MUM – I didn’t see any Mario Lemeiux types out there!
@Echo – Haha. The toddler activities are always good for a chuckle.
@Tom – No doubt.
