Little Steps Kindergym

Little Steps Kindergym 🌟 Welcome to Little Steps Kindergym! Gymnastics develops a strong foundation for skills needed in all sports.

We provide a fun, safe, and supportive space where little ones can explore, play, and develop confidence, coordination, and social skills through active, engaging sessions. 🤸‍♂️🎨✨ Gymnastics and early childhood movement education is directly attributed to developing neurological pathways in students and promoting reading readiness. While the gymnastics coach runs about and plays with the little ki

ds in her class, they are preparing the students for successful experiences in school; children who have participated in movement education activities have longer attention spans, increased communication skills, general problem solving skills and improved self-esteem. Early Gymnastics Education can enhance and benefit your child’s development in many ways including;

Physical Benefits:
Coordination, balance, agility, flexibility, fitness, strength and power. Because it’s fun to do gymnastics, children develop positive feelings associated with exercise and fitness that can last a lifetime. Mental Benefits:
Focus, concentration, visualization, listening and following directions, goal setting. For many children gymnastics class is their first experience working with a teacher. Because it’s fun they chose to participate, resulting in a positive ‘class’ experience. This creates a successful model for them as they enter school. And as they master basic skills, they set goals to learn more advanced skills. Emotional Benefits:
Confidence, stress management, and working through fearful experiences. Learning how to manage the fear associated with new experiences will enhance a person’s life. Whether it’s learning a cartwheel or speaking in front of your class at school – associating risk and fear with joy and excitement instead of apprehension and dread will make a lasting difference in anyone’s life. Because we introduce new skills only when they are achievable (the student is ready to succeed), and because we define success as personal best instead of better than others (our non-competitive philosophy) children quickly become comfortable trying new things expecting to succeed (improved confidence). Social Benefits:
Teamwork, cooperation, working together supporting others. In a competitive environment children are taught “for me to win, you have to lose”. Many studies have shown that, while youth sports are popular, most children are forced to experience failure, resulting in kids quitting sports and becoming unfit. Our “Personal Best” non-competitive philosophy helps every child experience success, resulting in higher self-esteem, greater cooperation (the opposite of competition), friendships and healthy social bonds.

✨ Tummy Time Tuesday with Rory ✨

Today Rory has been working hard on his assisted leg pushes and little “worm crawls” along the bed with Mum 💪🐛

These movements might look simple, but they’re doing some big things for his development! Assisted leg pushes help strengthen his lower body muscles, especially through the hips and legs, while also teaching him how to generate force to move forward. The worm crawl is an early form of coordinated movement, helping him connect his upper and lower body while building core strength.

Together, these exercises support:
• Stronger core and postural control
• Improved coordination between arms and legs
• Increased body awareness
• Early movement patterns needed for crawling

All of this is laying the foundation for independent crawling, exploring, and eventually those first steps! 🌱

🤸‍♀️ In gymnastics, we use our hands almost as much as our feet!

From hanging on bars to crawling, balancing, and supporting our bodies, little gymnasts quickly learn that strong hands are just as important as strong legs.

In Kindergym, activities that build grip strength and coordination help growing bodies in so many ways. When children hang, swing, climb, and hold their body weight, they strengthen the small muscles in their hands, wrists, and arms. This helps develop better control, stability, and confidence in movement.

Grip strength also supports important developmental skills like:
✨ Improved hand–eye coordination
✨ Better control for writing and drawing later on
✨ Stronger shoulders and upper-body stability
✨ Confidence in climbing, swinging, and exploring

Most importantly, our gymnasts build these skills through playful movement and exploration. Every swing, hang, and climb is helping their bodies grow stronger and more coordinated.

💛 Strong hands today help support confident movers tomorrow!

Today Rory had a special helper — his big brother! Together they practiced visual tracking by watching colourful scarves gently float down from above. 👀🌈

Activities like this help babies strengthen their eye muscles and coordination as they follow moving objects, which supports early visual development and focus. Having big brother involved also adds something extra special — social interaction. Hearing his voice, seeing his face, and sharing the moment helps Rory build connection, communication skills, and emotional bonding.

Tummy time doesn’t have to be complicated — a simple game, a sibling, and a few colourful scarves can turn it into a fun learning moment. 💛

👇 Give it a try at home and tell us — does your little one love watching things fall from above?

Today we leveled things up! By placing Rory on a small folded blanket with his feet just dangling to the floor, he has to really engage his core to lift his legs and kick the hanging toys on his wooden A-frame.

✨ On his back: a great starting point! He works on lower ab activation, coordination, and intentional kicking.
✨ On his tummy: more challenge! He has to push through his arms, engage his core, and activate his hip flexors to lift and kick — building strength for rolling, crawling, and future mobility.

This simple elevation adds just enough difficulty to encourage purposeful movement and motor planning while still keeping it fun and playful.

Benefits of this activity:
✔️ Core strengthening
✔️ Hip flexor activation
✔️ Upper body weight-bearing (on tummy)
✔️ Coordination & motor planning
✔️ Sensory exploration
✔️ Builds foundations for rolling & crawling

Small changes = big developmental wins 💪

Save this to try during your next tummy time session!

Kindergym Week 3 was full of energy and smiles! 🤸‍♀️✨

This week we practiced lots of jumping and balancing, sorted through our sea creatures and coloured coral, worked on our counting skills, and enjoyed some wonderful social time with friends. 🐟🐡🔢🌈

Physical activity at this age helps build strong muscles and bones, improves balance and coordination, supports brain development, and boosts confidence. Most importantly, it encourages teamwork, resilience, and a lifelong love of movement.

In Kindergym, we teach “motorbike landings” — feet apart, knees bent, arms forward like you’re holding handlebars, and eyes up — to help kids land safely and confidently every time they jump. This strong shape builds balance, coordination, body awareness, and safe movement habits that support every gymnastics skill (and everyday play!). Watch our coach demonstrate the ideal model in the video, then practice 5 motorbike landings at home and show us your best “stick!” 👏
