I don't know about other locations, but ours was so great because they weren't strict about the class. The kids could participate in circle time, songs, games, parachute, etc. OR they could just run around. There was no pressure to follow directions or participate. They set up all the equipment in such creative ways (bridges, climbing structures, etc) and change it up every few weeks to keep things fresh. It was perfect for Wagon Jr. when he was becoming an active little boy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-gym-or-gymboree-membership#post-127276 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 19:39:47 +0000 banana 127276@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@andrea: The one by my house has Saturday and Sunday classes at 9:30am! Those are the ones I'm considering. My LO doesn't go to daycare so I figure he needs some sort of socializing. I hope the music and dancing don't turn him off. lol. If he could have it his way, he would just run around and climb stuff all day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-gym-or-gymboree-membership#post-127272 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 19:38:20 +0000 Andrea 127272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it would be fun! I have always wanted to take my LO but all the classes are during the week and she goes to daycare. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-gym-or-gymboree-membership#post-127251 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 19:29:42 +0000 mrs. wagon 127251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@banana: I definitely think it would help!! Wagon Jr. was like that too until just recently. But it was great to just have him play among other kids. </p> <p>The unlimited classes definitely made it worth it... we also got promotional pricing for the first 3 months, I think a discount of $10 per month. Then we didn't renew in the fall since that would have just been one class a week at the higher price. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-gym-or-gymboree-membership#post-127250 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 19:29:41 +0000 sulli301 127250@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wish we had these options closer to us! I'd love to do them </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-gym-or-gymboree-membership#post-127241 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 19:27:05 +0000 banana 127241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs.wagon: Oh cool! Maybe I should check out Gymboree then and take advantage of the free class. My LO is kind of a loner (he likes to play independently and isn't the happy go lucky music/dancing kind of kid) so I think a class like this would be helpful for him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-gym-or-gymboree-membership#post-127205 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 19:19:03 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 127205@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The first visit at both places is free. That's how we figured out which we liked better for her developmental stage :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-gym-or-gymboree-membership#post-127202 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 19:18:52 +0000 mrs. wagon 127202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did Gymboree for one summer. It was great because during the summer you could go to unlimited classes, including the music classes! We were there at least 3x a week. Nice air conditioned place and everything was padded and safe. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-gym-or-gymboree-membership#post-127197 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 19:17:44 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 127197@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@banana: It's not my favorite song, but we sing it. Lala is partial to the parachute songs :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-gym-or-gymboree-membership#post-127196 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 19:17:43 +0000 banana 127196@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: Man, I wish they were free! At the little gym by my house, it's $250/month! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-gym-or-gymboree-membership#post-127195 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 19:16:38 +0000 regberadaisy 127195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had assume they were free! Didn't realize you had to pay for them but then why wouldn't you right? Sigh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-gym-or-gymboree-membership#post-127183 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 19:13:18 +0000 banana 127183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs.jacks: Do you sing the "gymbo" songs? LOL. I heard my friend singing it the other day and she said it's from her gymboree classes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-gym-or-gymboree-membership#post-127139 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 18:49:12 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 127139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did gymboree until Lala started walking. At that point she stopped being so interested in the class, so we dropped it. It was also kind of far from our house, so it had to be really value-added for me to want to continue.</p> <p>I should say that we still sing the songs from there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-gym-or-gymboree-membership#post-127107 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 18:37:18 +0000 chopsuey 127107@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. I think all of the "gyms" offer a free class. Check them out and see which you/your son likes better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-gym-or-gymboree-membership#post-127104 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 18:36:01 +0000 heffalump 127104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm pretty sure you get one free class to see if you like it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-gym-or-gymboree-membership#post-127092 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 18:27:15 +0000 banana 127092@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Has anyone ever enrolled in classes at places like My Little Gym or Gymboree? I'm thinking about enrolling my son but not sure if it's worth the money. </p>
