I'm thinking of putting DS1 in a class this fall.  Does your DC like it?

My 4 year old LOVES it!

They teach them tumbling stuff, have them do stuff on the trampolines, jump and play in the foam pit, walk balance beam, do obstacle courses, stretch and all kinds of fun stuff.  He took a break for the summer, but will probably be going back in the fall.

Halee loves it.  She has been it since she was 2 and goes back in Sept (theyare on a school schedule)  Danica also start in Sept.  Halee does swim too and will be starting dance in Sept also.

dd is in gymanstics, but its not like a fun tumble class...there is fun, but definite structure and at first i hated the lady thinking she was too strict for 2 year olds.

but she has lightened up and dd is learning a lot.  plus dd loves it, which i wasnt sure she would. 

its more the kind of gymnastics that is working towards becoming a future gymnast, not just to learn about the body.

This is how Halees is too

The twins are in gymnastics...they started at 17 months and they love it. Ours isn't a "fun" kind of class either- it's structured and they teach real gymnastics but the coach announced that at the very first class. My DH's sister and her husband own the gymnastics academy we go to so gymnastics is "In the family" LOL.

My oldest son did it when he was younger (starting around 5 or 6 years) & then was on a team until he was about 12.  He loved it.  Now, our 3 & 5 year old DD's are in it & LOVE it!! They have such a blast!

My dd has been doing it for over 2 years and goes year round.  She loves it and it is the structured gymnastics learning the skills.  She has super muscles from it and loves it.
