Especially fashionable during the 40′s and 50′s, roller skating has remained popular not only as a reminder of times past, but as a fun and exciting form of exercise and entertainment! Kids, teenagers and even adults will love the novelty of a roller skating party as they zip and twist around the rink!
Get your guests excited for the party with die-cut roller skate invitations from invitation designer Picture Perfect that even feature a real shoelace embellishment – perfect for a girl or boy birthday party! For the girls, invitation designer Periwinkle Press features a fun roller skate invite with white skates and hot pink wheels and shoelaces. Pretty pink and green stripe socks add a festive flair. For the boys, another especially fun die-cut invite features a boy with roller blades and of course a helmet and other necessary safety gear!
Skating Invitations
Roller skating rinks offer a variety of party packages that usually include rental skates, a party room, and use of the rink for a certain amount of hours. Some may even provide catering and drinks. Others offer special theme nights at the rink featuring costumes, special games, and theme music.
Free Skate
For most of the time, the kids will like to free skate. Some rinks might even provide someone to conduct games with the skaters during a particular portion of the skating time. If not, though, you can still come up with some exciting games that put their skating skills to the test! One fun game is “Four Corners” that is a variant of “Musical Chairs”. Label each corner of the rink as Corner 1, 2, 3 and 4 and then give the kids 10 seconds to reach a corner. Roll a dice or pick a number out of a hat, and whichever corner number is selected, the skaters in that corner must leave the rink! That corner is also off-limits for the rest of the game. Now they must skate between three corners and hope that their corner number is not picked! Those in the last corner “survive” and win the game. You can also expand this game by using the sides of the rink for more “corners” and labeling them as numbers 5 and 6.
Games and Races
After they have practiced their skills during free skate, the kids will love to test those skills out during a race! You can have races for different age groups or speed levels. Make sure that kids are wearing the proper safety gear such as helmets and knee and elbow pads if they will be going fast! Another idea would be to choreograph a small dance routine and then hold a skate dancing contest where kids must perform the skating routine to a song, similar to ice skating. Of course, the “Hokey Pokey” is another classic skating rink game/song that the kids will love.
Food and Beverages
For food, kids will love finger foods such as vegetable and fruit slices, popcorn, and chips that they can snack on in between skating. For a more substantial meal, pizza, corndogs, or sub sandwiches are usually staples at skating rinks. Juice boxes, soda and water are great choices for drinks! For dessert, serve ice cream sandwiches or cupcakes. Cake decorator, Wilton, provides a skate cake pan that can be decorated with any color of icing.
Favors
For party favors, you can send kids home with stickers to decorate their helmets or fun colored shoelaces for when they change back into their street shoes. Some rinks even provide partygoers with a coupon for a free night of skating for another time. The kids will definitely want to take advantage of that after their fun time skating!

How to watch premiership football match streams on your pc
If you have tried to watch premiership football or any sport streams for that matter on your pc chances are that you had a foreign commentator and a bad picture.The only software freely available was sopcast,tvants,p2ptv or iraqgoals.
Now i love football and would love to watch my beloved manchester city every week but i just can’t afford to.So my only option to watch every single match is to find the games on my pc.
I got fed up of the awful picture and sound on the above pc tv options so against my better judgement i dug deep into my pocket and bought some pc tv software that i saw when i was looking through usfreeads.
I paid for,downloaded and installed the software. First impressions were very good it looked nice loaded very quickly but i couldn’t get a picture.
What a waste of money i thought then i had a brainwave. Why don’t i read the instructions,DUHH.
After that everything was fine,as promised there were hundreds of channels but most important to me was the fact that i could now watch every single premiership game and every single man city game.
I missed one match all season last year and that was only because my brother got married, i know how selfish of him getting married on a match day.
The picture is spot on the sound is great and i don’t have to pay any monthly subscriptions,even when there is no football on i can watch golf,cricket,wrestling you name it you can watch it.
