Fun in the Gym

With the colder weather we have been spending more time going to the gym.

In the gym we not only have a chance to work on large muscle skills but we also learn to:
  • listen to directions
  • share a larger space
  • move safely
  • participate in new activities
  • learn new vocabulary (e.g. soaring, tiptoeing, slithering)
  • and of course have fun!

We recently spent time in the gym moving like different animals.

Here are a few short videos demonstrating how we are learning to move.

1.  Jumping/Hopping like a frog.



2.  Slithering like a snake.



3.  Running like a monkey.  I think this was our loudest animal.



4.  Soaring like an eagle.  We really can be quiet.



5.  Tiptoeing like a mouse.



We hope you enjoy watching us learn to move in different ways.
