Playball is a wonderful ball skills/gross motor development programme offered at most pre-schools.
It seems that even in this day and age stereotypes abound as just like there was only 1 boy in her ballet class (you do need the boys in ballet you know) she was the only girl in her Playball group.
Anyway, today was the last Playball day of the year so parents were invited to come along and join in the fun.
Most extramurals will have "watching day" at the end of the term/season/year but with Playball there is no watching - only doing!! Each child paired up with their parent and we did the games/activities together. It was fun.
Then they were each awarded with a certificate and a smiley face ball.
My camera's flash is broken so it wasn't playing the game but I did manage this 1 half decent picture! They had to stand on the star and shake hands with their coach and everybody had to clap for them, it was very sweet.
(It reminded me of Abigail at 4 and a bit getting her first certificates, she called them ferticiates!!)
1 thing to tick off on the loooong list of things to do at this very busy time of year.
