We just started ballet too! It is so stinking cute. Can I ask a question about your class? Do they tell the kids that no one talks during class? I was surprised to hear this in our second class, but I asked around and it seems pretty much the norm for ballet. I don't know how she's every going to be quiet for 45 minutes. She talks nonstop.
This is a good question and I can't answer with great authority because I was only able to see/hear bits from the open door to the parental holding tank. The teacher started class letting them skip around for 5 minutes and get it out of their systems and next thing I know, the only sound coming out of the room is music and there are two rows of mostly still toddlers. I was impressed.
Since DD#1 started preschool this fall, which was pricey, I am determined to not put her into any other activities right now, but I so want her to be in ballet, just cause of the cuteness, which is not a really good reason.
I cannot wait for DD2 to be old enough for ballet! The kid is constantly dancing and making music, I think she'll love it. DD1 took a couple years but wasn't that into it.
