All children know how to enjoy every day at any time of the year. A happy time is childhood, there are practically no problems, and any weather outside the window is an occasion for new entertainment. In summer, you can walk for a long time on the street, and in winter, although it is cold, there is no less entertainment. You can build snowmen, play snowball fights with your friends and ride down the hill. An ice rink for children will help you to actively relax in the winter, without going far from your own home. What is it, who will need such inventory?

Ledyanki - compact sled for children and adults

Every modern parent knows that riding downhill just on the ass is not fun at all. During our childhood, sleds were often replaced with pieces of cardboard and linoleum. But, you see, walking, even up to a hill with a piece of building material, is not at all respectable today. And why look for a piece of old linoleum, if in any children's goods store a children's ice cube is sold quite inexpensively? This is a compact and cheap alternative to children's sleds. Ledyanka today can be found on sale in various types, shapes and sizes. They also differ in the material used to make them. If you wish, you can find an option that will be ridden not only by a child, but also by an adult.

Iced ice and traditional sleds

With the onset of the first cold weather, goods for winter games are being sold on the street at almost every step. It is worth noting that traditional sledges for skiing are inexpensive, and any family can buy them. However, the ice rink for children has a number of advantages. One of the most important among them is a very low price. The cost of such an accessory for skiing is from 100 rubles. Of course, we are talking about the most budget options. But already for 300-500 rubles, you can start choosing and not denying the child his personal preferences and wishes. The compactness and mobility of ice rinks is another advantage in comparison with sleds. Such an accessory has a minimum weight, even a child of 4-5 years old can independently carry it from place to place. When stored, the ice maker also takes up very little space. Typically, such "mini-sleds" for slides are also distinguished by their durability. But if your ice cube breaks, it's not a big deal, because you can go and buy a new one.

Varieties of ice caps

What to ride down the hill? The simplest and most popular ice cube for children is a circle or a large “heart” with a handle. In fact, this is just a “mat” for sliding downhill, which will not only give acceleration when moving, but also allow the child not to stain his pants. Such icicles are performedfrost-resistant plastic or rubber. The next variety is "basins". We are talking about hard ice-plates, they usually have a fairly large diameter, they can also have an elongated trough shape. This version of the sled is one of the safest, however, when riding, the child must hold tightly to the handles.

Children's soft ice cubes resemble small pillows or filled bags with handles. Such skating accessories look very attractive, as they are usually decorated with bright patterns. Their main advantage is compactness and light weight. A few years ago, our country was "captured" by a new fashionable hobby: tubing. We are talking about sled-cheesecakes, which in the cold season can also be found in stores for goods for children. Tubing is not exactly cheap, however, riding on it is a real pleasure, and in summer you can swim in the sea or a pond on a “cheesecake”.

How to choose an ice cube for a child?

Before you go to the store for a gift for a young roller coaster, you should decide how much money you are willing to spend. It is also important to immediately decide whether adults will ride on the ice, how often the child visits the hill, whether he walks alone or only accompanied by his parents, how much to go to the skiing place. Depending on your answers to all these questions, you can formulate your requirements for the purchase. The children's inflatable ice rink is ideal for a family that regularly travels to ski resorts, in the absence of problems with transportation and storage. If the child often walks alone and the slide is onsome distance from home, it is best to choose a compact plastic or soft "litter". Be sure to check specifications such as maximum weight and allowable operating temperature for a particular product before purchasing.

How much is the pleasure of winter skiing?

Simple ice cubes of small size made of plastic and rubber are quite inexpensive, usually in the range of 70-300 rubles. For the same price, you can buy a soft "litter" for skiing, the price of such an accessory can be 200-500 rubles. What could be better than a "basin" or "trough" - a large and hard ice cube for children? The price of such a product is slightly higher, usually it is 800-1500 rubles. Tubings are even more expensive, their cost is usually 1000-4000 rubles.

Safety rules

Unfortunately, not all children's ice sleds come with an instruction manual. Even the smallest child will intuitively understand how to handle such a riding device. But parents should not forget about the need to regularly remind the child about the rules of behavior on the hill. It is recommended to ride ice-skates only in a sitting position. You can slide down the hill only after making sure that there is no one below. Having finished the descent, the child should quickly get up and move to a safe area, taking their mini-sled with them. If the ice is broken, it is not safe to continue using it for skiing. Learn all these simple rules with your child, and then winter walks will bring you onlyjoy!
