...a skateboard?

Ds told FC that he really really wanted a skateboard, but mummy says he's too young. FC said "Oh I'm sure we can make sure you get one anyway!"

I know they're supposed to promise the kids anything they want and all, but... come on, he's three!

bah!
humbug!

(anyone got any tips on accident-proofing a skateboard?)

Would he use it if FC did bring him one?

I bought Ds1 a very small skateboard from a charity shop for 75p and he loves sitting on it and rolling and also being on his tummy. He's had it since nearly 3 (nearly 5 now) and loves it. He tried standing with me around but decided that wasn't for him

OnceAPillockNowAnAngel · 06/12/2008 22:40

you're both on my facebook friends, can't you find goober on there psycho and see if the 'add as friend' option is there?

OnceAPillockNowAnAngel · 06/12/2008 22:41

rollerskates is an easy one for a 4yr old, they do kiddie ones that you can set to not roll backwards, making it much harder to fall over!

OnceAPillockNowAnAngel · 06/12/2008 22:48

I see you found each other then

psychohohohoho · 06/12/2008 22:48

we think we is sorted, but thankyou.

she has written on my wall at least.

I sent her a request, and I think that is how it worked out in the end.....not sure entirely tho.
