Tumbleweeds is a safe, creative and fun, year-round program that meets once a week for children 6 months-8 years. Our program develops gross motor skills, spatial and directional awareness, reading readiness skills, increase self-confidence, color & shape recognition, hand-eye coordination, patience, enhance parent/child bond, making friends and having an absolute blast while learning!

An educational approach to gymnastics and fitness by using themes and props. A child practices different skills at stations in an obstacle course that are centered on weekly themes. Our clean, brightly colored gym is decorated to coordinate with the theme of the week. We also offer beginner to advanced gymnastics.

We use real gymnastics equipment scaled down for pre-schoolers such as: balance beams, bars, parallel bars, trapezoid vault, inclines, tumble trak, parachute, tunnels, mini-climbing wall/slide, mini-trampoline, ladders, octagons, rings, trapeze, zip-line and fitness equipment.

Tumbleweeds is very excited about our Art Program. Scribbles is an Art program designed for young artists. The program teaches young artists a variety of styles including painting, collage, mosaics, sculpture and much more. Children's books and music will be used to help inspire your child's imagination as they create treasures that last a lifetime. This unique approach to the world of art instills a love of learning in a fun and creative atmosphere. Children will have a blast making their creative keepsakes and best of all, the mess is on us!

Parents
Encourage your child to try new and different things. Children who are comfortable with making mistakes and exploring will more likely create and invent new ways to think and solve problems on their own. The most important aspect of this class is the process instead of the outcome. Display their artwork, these are their treasures of childhood that you will want to have as keepsakes! Please spread the word to your Family and Friends about this great program!
