A couple of months ago, we enrolled Cullyn in gymnastics. He was getting a little jealous of sissy's dance class {basically just wanting to join her class} and we realized we he was probably ready for an extracurricular sport as well. Many of the real 'boy' activities {wrestling, basketball, soccer, karate etc.} don't start before three {or in some cases 5} around here and he has a huge love for climbing, so I thought tumbling would be a good idea.
As it turns out, the class for 2 year olds is a parent/toddler class {we actually had Jordyn enrolled for a short bit right before she turned 2!} which we didn't feel would be the best option for Cullyn {he tends to be more 'spirited' when I'm around & it's on Friday morning when Adam is at work}. It's in the same building as Jordyn & Cullyn's preschool, so we know all the teachers, staff, & director well. They insisted that he would be able to keep up with the 3/4 year old class {which is coach led} and to enroll him in that {*The staff at Triad is so freaking awesome!} So we did. Bonus that his tumbling class is right before his preschool class on Fridays.
So he's a foot shorter and over a year younger than most of the kids, but I can assure you, if it weren't for the physical characteristics, you would never know. He is small but mighty, that is for sure!
Small class due to Spring Break |
Not in his class, just bored waiting & telling me that I should let her tumble too! |
For size comparison {crying emoji goes here!} ;) |
