Parent / Child Classes

12 Months – 3 Years
Parent/Child classes are an exciting way for toddlers to develop basic tumbling and motor skills with the help of an adult. Vibrant obstacle courses, upbeat music, singing, circle time, and props are used to help develop gross motor skills, and build the ability to follow instructions. Children also learn body awareness, locomotive, and balancing skills. As children age into older parent/child classes they participate in activities and obstacle courses to encourage their independence and creativity.
