GymboWeen

Have I told you how much I love Gymboree? Seriously, it is the BEST investment of money ever. Braylon has developed so many skills, motor and social, that I know he would lag on if he did not go. I love the friends that I have made there too. None of these women have become super close friends but they are all very supportive and helpful. If you have a Gymboree near you and a kid under 5, you should definitely check it out. I promise you will not be disappointed!

Today, was our Halloween party at Gymboree. It was neat because it was a sign up type of thing and it was ages 10 months to 36 months all in one big group. Braylon loves older children, so he was in heaven. 

I am going to warn you. This post is picture heavy. But everything was just so cute!
The little Dino playing before the party got started.
 The teachers started off the party with a Halloween song. Braylon is obsessed with these women. In class we do lap rides where every kid gets on their parents lap. Well, not my kid. He makes a bee line for the teacher and sits on her. Ms. Chris even calls him boyfriend for how much they love him and he loves them back.
Braylon is in awe
 Next up was this ring around the rosy game with the parachute. And then a song to call Halloween out.
 Braylon quickly found Miss Alysha and decided he would just walk around with her.
 Next they were suppose to go find all these little pumpkins hidden all around the gym floor and bring them back to the mommy pumpkin. Well, Braylon decided that finding them was way too much work and he was just going to sit in their home and play with them in there.
 You can't have a Halloween party without witches, right? So the kiddos all lined up and got to slide off of the witches broom stick. I think Braylon liked this activity the best.

Ms Chris and Ms Alysha with Braylon. He does not seem to be enjoying it :)
 At Gymboree, there is ALWAYS parachute time and bubbles. Today the kids were suppose to stomp the ghost out from under the parachute.

 And then it was good ol bubbles. They all got stuck to my hair. Cute look right?
 The last activity was a house that we made. It was a parachute house. Braylon loved being in there and looking up at all the pretty colors.

 Finally, the party was winding down and it was snack time. The kids got apples and water while the parents got the sweets. As it should be!
 Braylon loved pushing this cahir all around the snack room.

 After we gor our goodie bag we got a quick picture with all of the teachers before we headed home.

It was such a great party! I am so happy that we are party of this group. We have had the chance to do so many fun activities and Braylon has developed such an amazing personality because of it.

Now, for a much needed rest and recovery day tomorrow before we do the real Halloween Monday!
