Gymbaroo

Today we had a make up class at Gymbaroo, due to our delay in flights last week, that so kindly gave us a few extra hours in Broome! Anyway this term the theme is 'colourful characters' and todays colour was 'orange'. We are asked to dress our children in the weeks theme colour so they are able to associate with the colour. Well late last night I realised we had no ORANGE. However I did manage to find a very bright 70's looking fabric in my fabric stash, so I ended up making her a top.
Emily loves Gymbaroo and it is really helping with her development. Today was all about Bi laterality, they were learning to climb up ladders and there was a big focus on jumping.
We were given an interesting hand out on Bi-Laterality which I thought may be of interest. It is focused on the 18-24month age group.

Our toddlers are now fully developed bi-lateral little ones. Once they start jumping during this period, there is nothing as exciting as practising this new skill. At first it is a bit 'hobbeldy hoy' a quick sort of step/jump, especially when trying this new skill off the lowest step of the stairs.
