When it comes to family fun, some activities are just better than others. We’ll admit to being a little predisposed, but we still think roller skating is one of the best! There are so many reasons why roller skating is awesome, from the physical benefits (aerobic exercise, core and lower body muscle strengthening, balance and agility skills) to the social value (skating is fun, great for groups, and brings people together with music and games).
Many of us grew up roller skating, but what about younger generations? Read on to learn how to get your kids involved in roller skating.
