19.01.2022 This week we worked on our kicking and throwing skills. Next week we will concentrate more on using our arms with hand eye coordination. Have a lovely weekend everyone

19.01.2022 ! is an incredibly important building block for motor skill development and is a joyful activity that wi...ll have your kids smiling. A jump can be broken down in three parts: take-off, flight and landing. Your little one is learning a lot whilst bouncing around! When jumping they are: . - Jumping is a cardiovascular exercise and gives the heart a healthy and organic workout. . - When kids jump, it involves virtually all major muscle groups in the body. . - Jumping helps kids understand their body better. Both sides of the brain and body work together to maintain balance and coordination. KinderGym provides a fun and safe environment with nationally accredited early childhood Leaders on hand to support and guide your child. So whatever developmental stage your child is at, you can rest assured that at KinderGym they are learning for life.

09.01.2022 It’s been great watching everyone exploring the little creatures and trying to name all the different insects. This gives the children a chance to slow down from all the moving and exercising they are doing. The magnifying glass helps us to see how different every creature is.
