Aidan started gymnastics class at Whitney Institute this morning.
I say "class", but it's really just a more structured version of the play gym he's been going to in St. David's for some months now. There, the kids just run around for a couple of hours playing with whatever bits of equipment they please.
Today, the equipment was grouped into stations, and the kids into groups. Each group of kids was assigned to a station and would follow a (relatively) orderly circuit through each piece of equipment in that group - walking along beams, doing somersaults, running along an inflatable track, and so on. Then after ten minutes a bell would ring and everyone would move on to the next station.
It was as much of a workout for us parents as for the kids!
