Is Baby Ready for Gymboree?

Is Baby Ready for Gymboree?

I have a curly-haired, 7-month-old baby boy named William. Wills is one of those “angel” babies, who has been all smiles since day one,

only cries when absolutely necessary and reaches all his milestones on time, with no trouble whatsoever. And when he started crawling

a couple of weeks ago, it completely took me by surprise because this didn’t happen with my other children until they were 8 or 9

months.

With his new found mobility, Wills seemed to be getting bored with his routine, and I don’t blame him - who would want to go from the

foam squares on the floor to the exersaucer to the sofa - so I thought it may be time to try a class at our local Gymboree, which luckily

lets you try every class, in every level for free.

My 3-year-old boy already goes once a week for the art class which he enjoys thoroughly. It has to be said though, that with my #2, we

tried Gymboree several times, from the time he was about 7 months on, with little success, only signing up when he was around 18

months as he refused to crawl and actually seemed quite annoyed by the whole thing until he was older.

So, as we made our way to the trial class I wondered, was Wills ready?
