My son was never really all that crazy about craft time or sitting in circles singing. He wanted to be running and climbing. I heard about the gymnastics program at Eastern Gymnastics and long story short: this is Luc's second year. He LOVES it there. He really thrives in this environment. They are very low key... it's okay if your kid prefers to run in circles and the rest of the kids are on the trampoline. The instructors are SENSATIONAL here. I highly recommend gymnastics as a great way of teaching your child coordination, body awareness, strength, and it's a great ego boost.

This is a really nice program. It's a caring and fun environment. They also have seperation classes
if you are planning on sending your child to nursery school in the future. I think Mom & Me starts
