[quote=Anonymous]I got my dd roller skates when she was about 5.5. I did not get skates for myself because at the beginning, she needed me to be stable to help her as she went along. As she got better, she is happy to just roll by herself. We got her a skating helmet. My understanding is that the bike helmet is built to absorb a single, large impact. The skating helmet is designed to absorb lots of smaller impacts. There is LOTS of falling with roller skates. Make sure she has elbow and knee pads and wrist braces. I really do think the wrist braces saved her from a broken arm or two.[/quote]
