Kinley Started tumbling about a year ago. She couldn't do a cartwheel or much more than a somersault. after a few months of being in the preschool class her teacher told me she was progressing very quickly and needed to move to a more advanced class. So, they moved her up. She is the youngest in the whole group but is doing fantastic! Each class the teacher chooses a star student and they get a couple Starbursts. Kinley works so hard each week in hopes of being the star student.
Over the Christmas break she came up to me and said, hey Mom, look what I figured out how to do!
She just kept doing back walk over, after back walk over til her body I'm sure felt like Jello! She kept telling me she couldn't give up. I finally got through to her and helped her understand that taking a little break wasnt giving up. :) It was just resting her body
After the next class she had, she came running out to me with the biggest smile! She got to be the star student!
She was so excited and told me that she earned it because she didn't give up and kept practicing. :)
Im thankful she has opportunities like this. She is not only learning so much about coordination, and getting to do what she loves, but she is also learning that hard work and practice pays off. :)
