Super Hero Tumbling Camp
Back before COVID-19 ruined a lot of our plans, I intended to sign Melody up for gymnastics this summer, and we were going to skip dance this summer. I know she loves dance, but we have struggled to get her to enjoy gymnastics. My assumption from the last two years of summer gymnastics is that she didn’t enjoy it because it was a mommy and me style class. This summer was the chance for her to do it alone. But we just didn’t feel entirely comfortable sending her with COVID still prevalent. Also, dance lasted through a good portion of June. So we actually figured we would not join anything this summer. Dance starts back early August. Then I read about a tumbling camp offered by her dance studio. It was a 3 day camp lasting 3 hours a day. I loved the idea of it being a longer day, and it offered tumbling and fun. And I really trusted their attention to detail when it came to COVID. So I jumped at the chance to sign her up!
Day one we received a few of fun pictures. Melody spoke a lot about the craft they did which were shields. You can see her in a few pictures below. They also took her picture in front of a super hero back drop. I dressed Melody in one her favorite Rainbow Rangers shirt too to fit the theme.
Day two they decorated capes and a mask. Then they learned a super hero dance.
On her last day, she had a bit of an attitude, ha! But she did have a lot of fun. She did an obstacle course, and while she did do any true tumbling according to her, she did have a lot of fun. She brought home all of her crafts along with her craft supplies since they each have their own bag of crayons, markers, and glue.
