Music Class

So if you are a full-time working parent, especially one who is a teacher, you get pretty pumped up for summers. This summer I am extremely pumped. Having 3 kids now keeps me pretty busy and even though 2 of the 3 are still pretty little and can't do much yet, Gracie is at the age where she can participate in many park district classes. The other week I registered her for 5 classes. Now before you label me "one of those moms" some of the classes are a one-time deal and actually one she is on the wait list for. 3 is typically the age you can register your child for a variety of classes. Gracie is not only on the wait list for tumbling, but she is going to a storytime in the park, swim lessons, a class called "3's that's me" where she will attend by herself for 45 minutes for a couple of days, I figured I needed to get her ready for preschool which starts this fall. I know she is used to going to a babysitter but I need to prepare her in the school setting. But we also signed up for a music class. This is nice because siblings 8 months and younger can attend for free! So every Monday, we head there. Last week was our first class. We sang songs and danced around. Gracie really loved dancing with the scarves.

Evie and Presley loved them too. Evie really loved the class. She was smiling the entire time and moving her feet in excitement. Presley liked it too but it took him longer to warm up to it.

And when it was time to play instruments, Gracie grabbed the drums right away but Evie and Presley got to shake some bells too!

Presley's favorite part was shaking the bells.

I'm glad everyone had fun. We get to go for a few more weeks.
At least it gets us out of the house. We heart music class!
