GYM KIDS

Emma started her "Gym Kids" class last week and she loves it. At the start of every class the teacher gets the children to retrieve balls and bean bags strategically placed through out the gym. Emma loves finding the items and runs quickly to place them in the bin.


Next are the stretching exercises, Emma is a lot more flexable than Mom or Dad!! After they are warmed up, the teacher has the kids doing different jumping, running and socializing activites. Last week there was a trampoline set up, so of course Emma was looking for it this week... but instead there were ribbons and climbing activites. Emma was abit confused, as she thought she would spend her time "bouncing" but she adjusted quickly and got into other fun activities instead!


















Emma learned how to climb across a ladder... Her comment to the event... "It was very tricky Mom!" Emma was very pleased with herself.











That is what our Monday mornings consist of now (for 6 weeks anyway). Dann and I think we will enroll Emma for the next session as well, she burns off a lot of steam in one hour!!

Well done Emma, that ladder looks tricky. I can't get over how Emma is growing and looks so much like her lovely Mum. Calli is looking forward to seeing you all and is so "excited" about that baby in the tummy. Emma and Calli will have lots to talk about and discuss their "gym experiences".
