Fun, engaging program!
Kari is a first-class athlete and an engaging teacher. We love this! My five boys, ages 2 to 9, all participate in Tiny Tumblers together and they remain interested throughout the program. Each skill is introduced simply and enthusiastically. My kids appreciated seeing both Kari's professional skills and the child gymnasts' beginning skills. The video has introduced my kids to a sport that they might not otherwise be exposed to, and now they're thinking that classes at a gym might not be so intimidating. Thanks, Kari, for this experience!
Tiny Tumblers
This was what I was looking for for my 3 year old. She enjoyed this kids in this dvd and the teacher was great.
Not bad - but definitely for the under 4's
I purchased this for my 4 year old daughter, who has been doing gymnastics for a few months. It's an enjoyable dvd - the presenter is keen, friendly, up-beat and entertaining, and she introduces the skills in a fun and safe way for kids to try at home.
I'd say, however, that the whole tone is really aimed at the under 4's. The songs go on a *bit* too long and are a bit too childish for my 4 year old, who wanted to know more about each skill, and how to practice it, rather than hear about it in a song.
The other disappointing aspect of this dvd is that, in many of the skills the presenter is demonstrating, the shot is framed in a such way that the lower half of her legs are cut off...which means when she's trying to show what a lunge is, for example, you can't actually SEE the lunge. The show then cuts away to a whole heap of very gorgeous little kids, all trying the skill at home...but none of them are doing it correctly either. So if you're watching and...
