monkey business
As soon as we walked into the place Aiden ran right up this pretend mountain and jumped off the top to the ground.
The little copycat Sky did exactly what her brother did except she jumped on the mat.
Aiden was in heaven. He was running around as fast as he could climbing on everything. Here he is letting out his excitement with a gratifying scream.
Aiden's first attempt at a climbing wall. I bet he'll get into climbing when he gets older. He is freakishly strong and incredibly coordinated....and oh yeah, he's totally fearless.
We had the entire gym to ourselves. Uncle Dullah joined us since is place is not far from the gym. Uncle Dullah added another layer of fun to the gym by throwing soft balls at Aiden while Aiden climbed on the equipment. That anticipation of getting hit with the ball as you climb made Aiden laugh from the soles of his feet.
My little girly-girl went right for the hoolahoop.
Aiden hiding from Uncle Dullah in a pretend "cave".
Uncle Dullah, you can't get me in here!
Sky wasn't in the least bit shy about climbing on the equipment. As a matter of fact, she'd watch her brother and mimick his every move. I guess she figured if Aiden doesn't get hurt, I won't either.
Oh no! We were sitting ducks for Aiden an Unlce Dullah to hit us with the balls.
I need one of these at home.
It would entertain Aiden and Sky for hours upon hours.
Aiden's face when I asked him if should go back to Monkey Business next weekend. I'd say that's a "yes".

There were never anything as FUN as this when my children were little and I know for a fact that leaving would create a simulated World War III with most children, including mine. Great fun for all of the kids, including Mommy and Uncle Dullah. Wish I could have some fun!
ReplyDeleteMonkey Business is way cool and exciting especially if you are part MONKEY! That Sky amazes me with all that she does and how she observes Aiden's every move. She is a prissy Tomboy who will never sit on the side lines..."No one puts Baby in a corner."
ReplyDeleteAiden looks like he could burst with that smile :-)
