HEELY's Cruise Easily Through the Seasons! Review

 I'm not athletic. It seems to be a gene my children acquired, thought they are eager to try new things. I remember in fifth grade coming home from school on my birthday to discover a pair of white rollerskates with green wheels and getting enough money to go back to school to rollerskate in the after school program. I was so excited. The eighties were amazing and rollerskating was what we did.

Rollerskating and roller skates have come along way in thirty years. We use to be limited to roller rinks now it seems the kiddos are rollerskating everywhere!  Those boot shoes with the big wheels seem only an obscurity when you visit a rollerskating rink. Gone are the lace up boots, the kiddos these days are tearin' it up in HEELY's. Let's be honest, if someone told us thirty years ago we'd be skating in our gym shoes we'd have rolled over laughing!

The Divine Miss M received the Heely's X2 Blossoms. They're all the fun of Heely's with lights! She loves the teal and aqua contrast against the white. She learned to put in and take out the wheels quickly. I love this option as when the wheels are removed, there is an insert cover cap that allows the shoes to be an everyday shoe. She can wear them to school this way. Pop off the cover cap and pop in the wheels and it's roller skating made fun!

Skating doesn't come naturally to The Divine Miss M. She isn't giving up. She's been practicing balance and rolling in the kitchen. Heely's offers skating with two wheels, aligned in the back compared to the four wheels I remember, or the inline skates that came out in the 1990s. We've visited the Heely's Website often to watch the learning videos that offer tips and step by step instructions on how to get started. She is loving the challenge and looking forward to taking her HEELY's out for a spin very soon.

Heely's are practical because they offer the comfort of sneakers and the transition to activity very easily. They look really fun and with a little more practice The Divine Miss M will be able to skate to school, remove the wheels,  and then on the way home, pop in the wheels and skate away. It's a great way to keep kiddos active!

The Divine Miss M has many friends who have Heely's and they make it look easy. Balance is crucial!

Heely's offers an assortment of styles and a variety of colors--bold and subtle. They are a great way to bid farewell to summer and cruise through fall. The Divine Miss M is loving hers and I'm loving that they are keeping her active and helping her learn a new skill!
