Gymnasts in the making!

Our momstown toddlers joined the Milton Springers today for a parent and tot gymnastics demo. The kids were absolutely amazed by the gym. You could see their eyes widen as we entered the facility that was filled with a multitude of brightly coloured equipment that they had never been exposed to before. What a treat!





We started off the demo by doing a warm up session and then learned how to "present". For the girls, you place your feet together and then put both hands in the air like a "Y". For the boys, you place one arm at your side and one arm in the air. They were taught that they should perform this stance after completing each move.




After we had that mastered, we participated in a circuit style activity which allowed us to experience a variety of the equipment available. The trampoline, the foam pit and the climbing wall seemed to be the top three favourites!





The parents were thrilled that the little ones enjoyed themselves and got a great workout in the process! Our Milton mamas and tots would like to thank the Springers for a fantastic demo! We will see you again in September.

My daughter didn’t experience going to the gym when she was toddler. Her younger sister is still a toddler and I think I will bring her to the gym because she likes seeing her sister do some gymnastic moves.
