If there's one thing you can count on with learning to skate it's falling. Your child will fall. There will likely be tears sooner or later. Knees, hips, elbows and especially tailbones are vulnerable points of contact when your skater falls on the ice and there's no competition as to who wins in a collision between ice and body. The body always looses.
My daughters were well past the learn-to-skate stage when I heard about these product, so I have no first-hand experience with them but I really like the concept. The only tears I ever recall seeing my daughters shed after a skating fall were when they landed on their tailbones. It's happened to both of them at least once and the Dynowear padded pants would have gone a long way to softening that blow.
If you've got a kid learning to skate, consider wrapping them up in some Dynowear Protective Clothing.

the ones that scare me are the tailbone hits bec those can have serious ramifications.
in the meantime, the very nice man at dynowear gave me a name - jerry's padded shorts - when all i kept finding was bunion cushions and heel pads on google (search term too generic).
here's the page for jerry's protective accessories: http://www.jerryskate.com/category/19.aspx
it comes with a dealer locating service, as well - my daughter needs size 10-12, which is probably a youth medium, costs $50 in lindsay, ontario.
