Hello everyone!
We have just arrived home from Keira-Elise's morning baby ballet class.
She is currently having a nap so thought I would pop on here and write a quick blog.
We absolutely love baby ballet! I cannot recommend it enough.
At first when researching baby ballet, a few people said to me 'she's too young' 'she won't know what to do' and 'what if she doesn't want to do ballet?' How wrong could they be?!
She is almost 19 month old and absolutely LOVES it.
It isn't all little pink tutu's and prancing around. They learn discipline and manners, colours and shapes, numbers and nursery rhymes.

The biggest change I have noticed in her is her vocabulary. As the children range between 18month-3year and Keira is currently the youngest in the class, she has learnt so many new words from the other children that I am amazed!
She can say so many different words; hello, bye bye, night night, mummy, nanny, daddy, gan-dad (grandad) peppa pig, house, car, tree, dog, cat, cow, duck... The list goes on!
If you have an active toddler girl or boy, I strongly recommend you take a look at www.babyballet.co.uk
You can pay £15.00 for the 3 week introductory sessions, so if you or your child don't enjoy it after those 3 weeks, you don't have to go again. I would recommend definitely trying it out for the first 3 weeks.
On Keira's first session she was a little monkey. She didn't want to do anything but try and take the dance teachers ipod out of the dock, open the cupboards or the doors and climb on everything!

I remember leaving and feeling exhausted!
The second session and she really settled down. She learnt how to say a few more words, twirl around, point her toes, stamp her feet and it was fantastic to see her joining in.

The third session and I think i'm safe to say she was a pro ;) Haha.
Only joking, I wouldn't go so far, however it is so rewarding to see her so happy.
It's so cute how they make little friends too. On each morning when we arrive, she says hello to the same little girl and they give each other cuddles!
Anyway enough about ballet! Just thought I had to share this with you.
Today we are going to get a few jobs in the house done, then take a walk to the park and maybe go and feed the ducks, however I am not sure if I can handle the steep hill! I am so unfit since becoming a mummy, or maybe I am just getting old :(
Tonight we will be going late night shopping to the White Rose Shopping Centre as my other half is treating me to a pair of Converse and a new handbag! Lucky girl.
