Gym Class

Very common in Austria are also gym classes for kids called "Eltern Kind Turnen". We found a great location in Dornbirn, about 20 minutes from our house and the kids really have a great time there.

It is a big gym/ hall were we meet every week on Thursday morning. There are about 10 kids in the class if all of them are there. Our teacher is called Sabine and we start off with a welcome song. After the song we do some different movement games every week before we have time for our "free play". We can swing, bounce, climb, run, play, etc. We then all help to clean up, have some apple together and sing a good bye song.
We look forward to it every week and we have already made some new friends who we met up with outside class as well. Here are some pictures.

Finn likes to climb up this thing and jump off.

Lilly likes to bounce on the cow.

They have some cool swings. This one is Finn's favorite.

There are swings, bouncers, tunnels, climbing things, etc.
