Tim Hortons Canada never fails me with their Free Skate sessions that they host allover Canada every year. Tim Hortons has just released their list of free skates and where they will be in a community near you, so go ahead and have a glance. Be sure to mark the date in your calendar, the kids will love it.
Skating is a sport that truly defines Canadians. Our national sport is Hockey, and almost everyone that I know has been taught to skate at some point in their life. As a Canadian child, they are almost expected to know how to skate and swim. That is where these free skate session as Tim Hortons come in handy. This is your chance to take your kids to the local arena and teach them how to skate - for free.
I am not sure if all arenas rent skates to their customers or not, but if you plan on picking this up as a hobby with the kids then you may want to invest in some Ice Skates. Amazon.ca has them from $25.99!
I know that a lot of the outdoor skating rinks are usually free, but these Tim Hortons Skating Sessions are generally indoors which means you don't have to battle with the weather, wind or precipitation when teaching your little ones to skate. This is especially important if your kiddos are young like my son. Last year he wanted nothing to do with skating outdoors because the wind made it too cold.
