Tumble Tots class - 12th Oct















My colleague Meggie has been asking whether i am keen to try out classes for Adelle. Since I have a $10 voucher for Tumble Tots trial class so i told her let's bring the babies there! So i booked a trial class for Adelle and Kyden on 12th Oct. However, Kyden was having fever on-and-off that week, thus couldn't go for the trial. :(

Anyway, the class was at Tampines Sports Hall. It took us quite a while to find the entrance of the Sports Hall. We reached there at 10.45am whereby the class starts 10.30am.. Haiz... So baby adelle missed out the first part which is the warm up session. The babies there all look quite big and seemed like they are at least 10mths and above cause they are crawling very well and some are attempting to walk already. Btw, the trial class that I signed up is Gymbabes and it's for babies from 6th mth to walking.

While all the babies are busy exploring around, i tried to let Baby Adelle to walk in between the pole. However, the teacher found out that baby adelle can't even crawl so they told me to teach her to crawl first then walk. She emphasize to me the importance of crawling and say it trained the coordination between the hands, legs and head also. Thus, she brought me to a mat area and put a round booster to support adelle tummy. The teacher also told me to massage Baby adelle legs and knees often so that it won't be so stiff as Baby Adelle is on walker during weekdays. Then she put a stick infront of adelle and told us to roll it to attract baby adelle to use her hand to reach for it. Well, baby adelle was quite cooperative and tried to reach for the sticks. Then the teacher rolled Adelle and put her on kneeling down position. She say this is to train baby adelle to learn to support her weight using her knees wor. Anyway i think my baby hates the class cos she was in tears becos of the "torture"... hehehee..

At around 11.30am, the teacher gathered everyone and blow bubbles. I can see all the babies are very fascinated with the bubbles. Lastly, the class ended with a bye bye song and the teacher bring out stickers and the babies crawl towards her for the stickers?!?!? Wow i didn't know babies at this age already LOVE stickers. Hmm... I wonder if it works for my baby? I don't think so cause her greatest temptation is not stickers, toys but rather FOOD! Wahahhaaa... :P
