Today Peanut started off the class with her Daddy for the first time. It began really well, Peanut did the gallop between stars while holding his hands and then touched the ground and jumped up. With his help she did the candlestick exercise. She also participated in the bean bag activity, even though she ran instead of jumping. Overall a great warm-up for our kiddo!
After warm-up, the kids went to bars and that's where things started to get shaky. With Miss Lina's help, Peanut made it through the bars rotation one time completely, and then she fought with Daddy about doing it again. She was having a rough night even before the class started, so I wasn't surprised we hit a snag on the bars.
From bars, the group went to beam. Peanut threw a huge fit for Daddy, so we switched roles for the remainder of the class. With Miss Lina's help, I got Peanut to do the kicks on the middle beam and the side step on the high beam. Miss Lina decided that Peanut just needed her to be goofy to participate :).
After beam the kids did floor. Peanut did great with the back walkover exercise twice, and did one rotation all the way through the floor exercises (donkey kicks, forward roll, straddle jumps over the cones, cat stretching on the mats). After one rotation though, she was ready to be done. She wanted to go bye-bye until I reminded her the the trampoline was next - then she lit up like a flashlight. She was SO excited.
The kids stayed on trampoline for a long time. Peanut was all smiles. Huge grins from ear to ear - and she even got off of the trampoline!! A HUGE accomplishment for our kiddo. She stayed on the trampoline and had a blast for the entire time.
From trampoline, the kids did one pass each on the tumble track and Peanut actually went into the pit with Miss Lina and my help. YAY Peanut! Then the kids got stickers and stamps and said thank you and bye-bye to Miss Lina. So sweet. Another day at the gym!
