Jillian loves going to preschool! I thought that it might be nice to sign Carter up for some kind of class also. So on Tuesday mornings we all go to Family Fun Time!!!!! And it really is! We meet at a school and spend the first 10 minutes in one classroom singing songs and dancing, then we walk to another classroom that is set up with all kids of equipment. It is like Chuckie cheese meets gymnastics. The kids have free range. There is no structure in this room and they get to climb on anything and everything. It is so fun to watch them explore and become more confident.
Today was spatial awareness day so there were a lot of tunnels for them to crawl through. There are about 15 - 20 kids so there is a lot going on. The parents play with the kids and just follow them to make sure they are safe. We only help when they need it. It is a really good place to learn how to interact socially too. For example, Jillian was very caught off guard today when a little boy smacked her in the face as she was hanging upside down on the bars. Apperently he thought her turn should be over:). His mother was so embarrassed and made him track jillian down to apologize (she got out of there fast). It is important for the kids to learn how to handle situations like that too. I am just always so relieved it is not mine doing the hitting that it never bothers me much, as long as the other parent is nice about it.

Carter spends a lot of time playing in the ball pit and shooting baskets. We think Santa may bring a basket ball hoop this year:)!
