Jumping for Gold
Jump! GymnasticsVancouver
(Aug.07.08)
Now that our little ones are rolling, crawling and bouncing, we proud mamas see future Olympic gymnasts (a little presumptuous, sure, but these kids have potential).
OK, so it might be too soon to start a rigorous training schedule, but our bouncing babes can still benefit from some time on the mats.
Vancouver's Jump! Gymnastics is the perfect place for our tiny tumblers. This all-new kid-focused gymnastics centre offers a class that suits the active needs of our growing kiddies. BabyJump! ($90 per session) is 45 minutes of exploration, socializing, stretching and, of course, jumping. Best of all, moms and dads participate too! Each class ends with a five-minute goodbye circle and mommy teatime. (Now that is our idea of physical activity!)
It may not be the kind of training that won Mary Lou Retton the gold, but it's fun and it just might lead our little ones to the podium (or just tire them out for a record-breaking nap time).
