🛼 Fun Facts About Roller Skating
Classic roller skates, often called quad skates, have four wheels: two in front and two in back, just like in this picture. That setup is pretty steady, which is why lots of kids learn to balance on them. Roller skating has been around for more than 200 years, and the earliest skates were clunky and hard to steer. There's even a competitive style called artistic roller skating, with spins and jumps a lot like figure skating. And remember: a helmet plus knee, elbow, and wrist pads make practice a lot safer.
🎨 Creative Tip: What to Do With the Finished Picture
Cut out the finished skater and tape her to a craft stick so she can roll across the table. Add a little glitter to the wheels and you've got your own roller disco.
