Our Little Ballerina

So we enrolled KennaDee in a ballet class and she just loves it. She only goes once a week and from that day on, she repeatedly says "gigi, dance." Gigi is one of her friends from church that goes to the same ballet class as well. Here are some pictures of her dancing. This is KennaDee, on the right, before we left the house. Her ballet outfit is under her dress.

At this part, they find the yellow "T" on the floor and stand on it. They tap their toe 3 times while making butterfly wings, then run, run, run, and they jump over a little animal in the middle of the room then walk to the opposite side of the room and do it again. So, the top picture is her tapping her foot with her butterfly wings spread and the next picture is of her jumping over tigger. The teacher put tigger there because that's what they are reading about right now.

Then, on the left is their story time. They are reading about Winnie the Pooh. After they read the story, they get into costumes and act out the story. So the first one on the left here is them reading their story, then the next one down is KennaDee turning in circles like a ballerina and the last one is her and her classmates waving their balloons as they walk to "piglets house."













And at the end of class, they all get fairy dust or a sticker on the hands, then they make a train by holding on to each others shoulders and choo-choo out the door. It's kind of funny sometimes because some of the girls DO NOT like people touching their shoulders. Some days we have success with our train and others we do not.

  1. She looks sooo cute. This is really good for her - I bet she just loves going to class. This will help her a lot when it is time for her to go to school and she will interact well with the other students. She's adorable.
