Gym Class

I've been struggling to find a "class" for Maree to take this spring.  We both need out of the house/a change of pace once a week & going to the grocery store just isn't cutting it!!  Last fall we did Kindermusic and she seemed to really enjoy it; however, we tried another music class in January and she suddenly seemed too old for the class. Most classes are 0-18 months, and Maree was quite honestly disruptive in these because she'd just want to do her own thing and she'd take everyone else's toy!  SO after a month of searching, I found a Gymboree gym class for 16-24 month old kids -- this is so much more her speed!!!

It is fun to see how much of a "little person" she has actually become!!  She often thinks she can do anything, which is good and bad.  It makes her willing to try pretty much everything, but it also causes lots of falls/tears of frustration when she can't do something. Luckily, everything in this gym was something she could master pretty well!

She immediately went to the climbing stairs

A little unsure of going through a tunnel... she's never even seen one!

The only way I got her through was to put a ball at the other end!

Her new favorite game at home has been "dunking" all of her balls into her laundry hamper, so putting balls into this foam thing was a big hit!

She LOVES bubbles - these must be different though because they are harder to pop, so it gave her more of a chance to actually catch them!

Parachute time is always fun

Pretty impressive balance - she always likes to go up things the wrong way!
