Kanga gym: Group 1 – FULL
Oct 19 @ 9:00 AM – 10:15 AM

The image shows two young children, a boy and a girl, playing in a colorful indoor gym or playroom. The boy, wearing a blue shirt and dark shorts, and the girl, wearing a white dress, are both smiling and holding onto a wooden climbing frame. The background is filled with various play equipment, including hula hoops, a small basketball hoop, colorful balls, and wall-mounted climbing bars. The atmosphere is bright and cheerful, suggesting a fun and safe environment for kids to play and exercise.
Note: Due to high demand, we have added a second group for this activity.   Group 1 is complete, but there is still room for Group 2.

Group 1: 9:15-10:15 a.m. ( FULL!)

Group 2: 10:30-11:30 a.m.

Join us for our first-ever toddler gym class. Kanga Gym is an activity designed for toddlers aged 2 to 5 that focuses on developing your child’s gross motor skills while giving them a chance to have fun with others. These parent-child sessions also provide an excellent opportunity for you to connect with your child as they navigate the stations.

What your kiddos will practice

  • Climbing on our new Montessori climbing structures
  • Jumping
  • Balance
  • Coordination

Kanga gym is a unique activity will challenge your child’s physical and emotional abilities in a fun and social setting. While climbing and jumping may be risky sometimes, science has shown that children thrive when experiencing risky play. It helps them to develop physical skills while promoting learning and overall development.

Register now because space is limited.

Due to space restrictions, we need to limit the number of places for this activity.

  • Register here to reserve your space for this fun parent-child activity!
