A Rousing Start!

Our first class at Nellie's was a huge hit! The class consisted of two three year old girls and two baby boys, and a mom with each child. The older toddlers were on their feet immediately, singing along and dancing. And the mom/baby duos were also enjoying themselves. The highlight for me was during the parachute, however, when a mom and baby went and lay down under the parachute, unprompted by me, with the mom lifting her baby in the air each time the parachute flew up. This made the toddler girls giggle and they joined in by lying down and watching the parachute together in community. For a first time at a new shelter, this class wa ssuccess!
