Show Day!

Cade took a Sports Class last semester at The Little Gym with his best buddy, Jake. He looked SO forward to Thursday afternoons! After months of learning about basketball, football, bowling, soccer, etc. with a little gymnastics thrown in, the last day was upon us. The last class of the semester proved to be the most exciting one by far-show day!!! They get to show off everything they learned during semester with a performance for the parents. My little man did not disappoint. I have said many times that his motto in life is "go big or go home". And that is exactly what he did...

They begin the class with their song, then each boy does a trick. Most boys ran really fast in a circle, but Cade tried something different. He ran and jumped straight onto his head. He basically did a dive into the mat.



I love his teacher's reaction!!!



Then they sat with their parents while their teachers called them up one at a time to go through the different stations for their performance. Cade was up second. He started out kicking the soccer ball around the cones then gave a big "umph!" as he kicked it into the goal. Then his teacher passed him the basketball, he dribbled it, then made a shot. Next, he walked down the tape, did a tuck jump and a back bend over a round mat. Then he did a donkey kick, a straddle jump (see below) and a straddle roll.



Next, was bowling. STRIKE!



Then he got into a football stance, his teacher handed off the ball to him and he tackled the cheese mat! This was by far my favorite part!



Next, he walked on the beam, did a roll, and a cartwheel off the end!



Class picture! An energetic bunch, I must say!!!



Our little champ! Way to go, Cade!
