So I just recently signed up Gavin for Baby Gym at Gym Kinetics. Its a local gymnastics center where every morning they have a baby gym class.
Gavin absolutely LOVES it. They do lots of activities to focus on gross motor, balance, coordination, etc. This includes lots of climbing over big foam mats and through tunnels....jumping and climbing through "the pit" full of spongey squares (think McD's playland but cooler and less gross)...running and jumping on trampolines....practicing forward and backward rolls...the list is endless.
Gavin just smiles and laughs the whole time. We've only had 2 sessions so far but we also sing songs while we stretch and this last time got to play with the parachute, play on some baby gymnastic rings and practice walking on a few inch high balance beam.
I'm telling you so far it is money well spent. Gavin cried when we left the first day. They do a great job with the kids and keep them entertained the whole time. He definitely loves our new gym class...hopefully one of these days I'll take my camera in with me and get some shots of him.
