Moving to DFW will be a bit of a culture shock for my boys who regularly enjoy the frolics of snow and ice. Having a house with a large hill and a big pond for many years, the love of skating has been instilled.
Happily, I have stumbled across the Parks Mall Ice Rink in Arlington. So, if you need to get some shopping done, this might be a great incentive to get the kiddos to cooperate while you get your shopping done. Then, you can reward them with an afternoon of skating!

In case your kids caught Olympic Fever this year, you can sign them up for the plethora of classes and hockey leagues for those interested in pursuing skating at a more serious level.
Does anyone else have kids that experienced culture shock moving to DFW? If so, what have you done to minimize it?
While DFW may not have frozen ponds and hills to sled, I am sure my boys will get some of the activities they enjoyed back home to ease the transition.
Let’s go Ice Skating!
