The kids and I were lucky to get a sneak peak into Disney on Ice, Frozen.
"Disney On Ice presents Frozen is inviting audiences across Australia to accompany Anna on her epic journey to save her sister Elsa and the kingdom of Arendelle this June-July. Featuring world-class ice skating and dazzling special effects, don't miss this breathtaking ice spectacular when Disney on Ice presents Frozen comes to a city near you!"
We were invited to Canterbury Ice Rink to see former Disney on Ice skaters showcase their moves, the kids got some help with their skating and we enjoyed seeing Shelley Craft again. It was a fun day.
Before we entered the ice rink the girls were desperate to go play in the park that is right next door. I thought that would be fine as we were very early. However I did not think it through very well and the grass was soaked due to the non stop rain and muddy. Not good. One kid came back from the play equipment screaming and yelling and of course crying!
Oh no what had happened. She got her pants wet from one of the pieces of equipment. She demanded that I get her new pants. The problem with this was that I did not pack a change of clothes and could not get a quick replacement as there were no shops nearby. I of course was in an area that I was not familiar with and did not want to venture to far and be late to join in the fun with Disney on Ice.
If you can understand what kids are like she was not understanding that I could not fix it and I told her that I was sorry.
I even made a great Frozen joke.
Mummy to the kid with the wet pants," Your pants will dry out soon, you will just need to wait"
Kid with the wet pants, "They are uncomfortable and wet!!!!!!!! I want new ones!!!"
Mummy to the kid with the wet pants, "I thought the cold didn't bother you anyway."
See what I did.... I quoted Frozen. I thought this was super clever. However the kid who was suffering with the wet pants did not see the humour in this at all. Pity really. One other mum next to me laughed and liked it.
Sad that the kids didn't think my joke was worthy of a laugh.
Okay.... now for one of the Frozen jokes from the twins.
Q: "Why can't Elsa hold a balloon?"
A: Because she will "Let it Go!"
Insert laughter... I know you are laughing.... I can hear you.The kids loved watching the professional skaters and marveled at how easy they made skating look. I know hours and hours of practice must go into being this good, and you just don't suddenly get to be this good. If you are like me, I could watch professional skaters do their tricks and clever moves for hours as well.
The girls and I had photos with the lovely Shelley Craft and learnt about how she is the ambassador for Disney on Ice Australia.
We even met Mickey Mouse. At first Alexander was not too sure but Mickey made us all feel comfortable.
The girls got a lovely goodie bag and I was even given the most amazing cupcakes we have had. They were from Black Velvet in Sydney.
I have purchased tickets so that the twins and can see Disney on Ice Frozen in July. We cannot wait. It is going to be a fun girls night out.
Would you love to go as well? Shows are from June - July and are happening all over Australia.
