Harrison is currently in his second session of preschool gymnastics. He is one of the youngest (most of them are 4-5) and he is one of the only boys, but he loves it! They learn to tumble, walk the balance beam, crab walk across parallel bars, hang from the high beam, and do obstacle courses.
The warm-up is the most difficult for him to pay attention. Though the teacher tries to make it fun, he just doesn't understand what stretching is all about.
The first few weeks were a bit rough because he had to learn how to stay on his carpet square and wait his turn, but now he is used to the routine. Here he is waiting patiently for his turn on the balance beam.

Another trip across the balance beam stepping over the eggs.
He noticed me taking pictures!
He loves the balance beam.
He tries to "walk the balance beam" at home all the time on different things like the edge of the carpet.
