Nora's first tumbling class was yesterday morning. She was very excited when she walked into the gym, but decided that she didn't want to follow directions during circle time. So I had to do the stretches all by myself while Nora stood next to me and all the other kids listened and followed along. After the stretching she did a really good job going through the circuits. Her favorite part was bouncing on the trampoline and doing the bunny hop on the balance beam.
Unfortunately she did not want to make friends yesterday. The class is made up mostly of girls and Nora has played with boys her entire life. There was one little girl who was a little younger than Nora who desperately wanted to play with her, but Nora wanted nothing to do with her.
Then we did parachute time. Nora had to be pushed into every activity and she still wouldn't do it. Finally at the end she did do the slide activity and the mushroom activity. Hopefully next week will be better.
