Kettering Gymnastics and Kindermusik

Signed Adam up for Gym-tots (gymnastics for toddlers) and he absolutely enjoyed it albeit 3/4 of the class being gurls. LOL In fact I think there were 2 boys Adam and another white boy. Hence the shyness and a lil clingy to me.

It was really exciting to watch Adam try out all the stuff they had there. I particularly loved how he was really enthusiastic on the balancing bar (which was prolly 10 cm above ground :))Also he did alot of climbing and balancing on the 35degree bars and coming down the plank. It was so fun to watch and also it's so good cuz they give 15mins of free time (with the equipment) then sing-a-long with all the other toddlers then they give an activity sheet where the kids should try and achieve the moves and when they do they get a stamp on the hand and on the sheet.

The session lasted for about 45 mins - 1 hour and it was only for GBP3.50 per session.


Recently, my life's not really turning into how I expected it to be so I'm swamping myself with Adam's activities and I'm really enjoying it! So Adam's schedule starting June:

Monday: SureStart Kettering program 1-2.30pm (Free)
Tuesday: Aquababies 10.30-11.30am (GBP3.50)
Wednesday: Full day nursery (GBP44)
Thursday: SureStart Stay and Play (Free) 10-11.30am, Gym-tots 2-2.45pm (GBP3.50)
Friday: Kindermusik 9.15-10am (GBP3.50)

So tomorrow we'll be going to Adam's first Kindermusik lesson too. Why Kindermusik? because 'The bottom line: early, positive, age-appropriate experiences with music—like Kindermusik—can have a remarkable and research-proven impact on children’s learning, including language and literacy skills (e.g., vocabulary, comprehension, listening, expression); social and emotional development; mathematics and pattern-recognition skills; and even ability to plan, guide, and self-regulate behavior.' We'll see how it goes.
