So, was anyone at Tipee Toes, and/or goose green playground on Monday morning?

[Keef]

As I'm on half term, I decided to take my daughter, so I could see where she goes every week with her nan. Just wondered if I saw any forumites there.

[mumra]

Yes to both :)

[anna_r]

Yes I was at tippeetoes sitting to your left with a baby on my lap and a curly haired two year old :) I thought it was you (remember your pic from the NHS brochure!) and thought about saying hi but got shy and you disappeared quickly afterwards :) now I sound like a weird stalker...

[Saffron]

Oh no, where were the 'I like biscuits' badges when you needed them!

Is Tippee Toes any good? We are thinking about going... :)

[Gussy]

Yes I was there too about 4 to your right with little girl and crawling baby boy. I thought it was you because I knew who little Keef was from your post a while back about your mum taking her to tippeetoes. Btw, mini keef at one point was kissing my little girls hair - very sweet. She didn't even notice!

[anna_r]

I know, I forgot my badge - perfect opportunity. My toddler was the one having a full on tantrum outside the door as everyone was trying to get in, in case anyone else saw us. She didn't want to leave the playground and I had to carry her under one arm while pushing pram....not an easy feat as she is very big and was very angry!! Perked up once we were inside though.

I liked it. It was our first time there as we usually do something else on a Monday. Its a small space though and was quite crowded. Person leading it was very nice though and did a few different things besides all the usual songs.

We go most weeks and the kids enjoy it. Kimmy (teacher) is lovely and they always love the bubbles and parachute bit at the end. As Anna said though it can get very crowded. I think Mondays are generally for toddlers and babies and there's another class on a Thursday (?) for just babies, so you have the option of 2 classes....

PS Anna I think I saw you as I was trying to get in, I felt a bit sorry for you! Will say hi next time :)

Anna - Whilst awful you have no idea how it cheers me that I am not the only one this sort of thing happens to! Little sb was the same at tumbletots last week and I nearly cried with frustration...took him a good while to perk up too.... X

Anna, I wondered if you were a forumite. Your baby is very cute!

Yes, she is very free with her kisses, the harlot! ::o

Was with my friend and his little boy. He is much more used to groups than me, as he runs Little Kickers (he used to do it in Dulwich, but has moved oop north and started his own franchise.

I'm not experienced at these groups, but IMO it seemed a lovely group. It is a small space, and from what my mum tells me, it usually gets pretty full, but I think Kimmy is great, and very inclusive of all the kids.

ah thank you, she is very good natured and smiley and quite happy to be carted around to all her sister's activities!

your little girl is very cute too :)

[Kimmy1080]

Aww, thanks for the love!!!

I'm in the process of sourcing a larger venue so I can incorporate more movement into my class structure - will keep you informed and truly hope you will all continue to come along.

By the way, did you get the parachute idea from trips to Whirl.Y.Gig in the past??? It brought back memories of my mis spent youth :)-D

[Kimmy1080]

LOL no, not at all, though I'm sure it would give me plenty of inspiration for future activities!!!

Ah the whirly.y.gig! What a place. not been in years. Apparently you can now take your kids there! Now THAT would be a venue for a toddler party lol!

Is anyone intending to go on Monday? We are and it would be good to put faces to some of the names.

Alas, I'm back to work, but my mum Marie will most likely be there with my little girl (Tami).
