Gymnastics class

Thomas took a gymnastics class as a supplement at his school last semester. We wanted him to take a supplement, and that was about the only not-too-girly class that worked with our schedule. He likes to tumble around at home too so I figured he would enjoy it. Even though he was only one of two boys in the class of 12 children, he enjoyed it very much.

On December 16, parents were invited to come to class so that the kids could display all that they had learned.

First there was "the bridge":



Walking the "balance beam":


Ta-dah!


Preparing for his flip:


Pushing up on the bar:


And then at the end, they earned their certificates and their medals. Thomas was so proud of his medal!


Since there was nothing else that fit our schedule next schedule, he'll be taking gymnastics again in the spring. I think he'll enjoy it just fine!
