Power Play Early Learning is thrilled to introduce our new Learn to Skate program - Power Play ICE.


This program is designed to help our early learners enrolled in one of our childcare programs ages 2-5 develop confidence, coordination, and a love of skating in a safe, fun, and supportive environment.


Program Options:

  • Preliminary Learn to Skate (Beginners) – perfect for children stepping onto the ice for the first time. 
  • Learn to Skate Levels 1–6 – progressive lessons that build skills step by step for those ready to advance. 
  • Boots to Blades (for our youngest learners - no skates required, only helmet)


What Families Need to Provide:

  • Helmet (certified) with cage and skates

Physical Activity and Sports and the Inquiry-Based Learning Model


Physical Activity naturally integrates with the inquiry-based learning model by offering opportunities for exploration and questioning. Participating in sports encourages learners to investigate concepts like physics (force, motion), biology (anatomy, physiology), mathematics (scoring, statistics), and social studies (teamwork, cooperation, social interaction).


Power Play offers a unique experience with our on-site ice rink, where children can explore how their bodies move on ice in a safe environment. An optional "Learn to Skate" program is provided in the spring and fall, allowing children to develop ice skating skills led by experienced instructors.
