Little Tykes Tumbling

Brady and I attended the first of four "tumbling classes" today. It really was just a room with a bunch of mats where the kids could run around and play. The teacher knew better than to have any truly structured activities (with the exception of the parachute) for this age level. This time was fun for Brady, the super physical kid. After his initial "warm-up, let me figure out what's going on here" introductory period, he was all over the mats, jumping and laughing. I'm not sure if Brady is the oldest kid there or if he's just the most physical. The teacher kept using him as a role model for the other kids for things like, well, rolling. There was an incline mat that she wanted the kids to try rolling down. I plunked Brady down and began to roll him and he squealed and laughed the whole way down, got up at the end, and said, "Again!" The same thing happened with jumping off the mat and walking on the balance beam. Boy, all boy, he is! There are no great pictures because it was impossible to take them while also trying to keep safety first with this kid. :)
