Ice Skating

 


All children know that ice skating is fun! It's also a very competitive sport, with many different events enjoyed in the Winter Olympics.

Did you know that experts think ice skating dates back over 3,000 years, to southern Finland? Original "skates" were just sharpened pieces of bone attached to the bottom of the foot!
