On Thin Ice

Who says you can’t take your baby ice skating with you? Definitely not this couple from 1937. As charming as this family looks, with Mom and Dad smiling for the camera, it seems the baby was the only one concerned about everything that could possibly go wrong. Even though the parents demonstrated some ingenuity, creating a makeshift baby chair or swing, aside from distributing the baby’s weight between them and making sure they stay together all the time, they might’ve missed a couple of quality control and safety measures. What if one of them slips? What if both of them fall? What if the baby gets tangled between them? Or what if they have to make a sudden stop and their baby get thrown out of that contraption? We could only hope this baby survived the ice skating activity without any injuries.
