MINI MUSCLES WOULD LIKE TO THANK MACALISTER TODD PHILIPS FOR THEIR GENEROUS OFFER OF PERFORMING ALL LEGAL WORK REQUIRED TO ESTABLISH MINI MUSCLES AS AN INCORPORATED SOCIETY-FREE OF CHARGE-THANK YOU
Thanks to Renee Hadlow, Andrea Fyfe, Helen Wootten, Jo Bridges and Jo Young, for volunteering their time and ideas to the new Mini Muscles committee. We are still looking for parent reps in each area. You would be responsible for passing on suggestions, feedback and info, from your area to the committee. You do not need to attend meetings.
WHAT IS MINI MUSCLES?
Mini Muscles is an interactive, fun, children's movement programme for parents/caregivers to play with their infant, toddler or preschooler. Sessions are based on free choice for children and we support parents to understand their childs physical development. We offer music and movement as part of the class and children are welcome to join in if they wish. Physical movement plays an important role in early childhood education and is necessary for your infant's brain development. You will learn how your new baby's movement, supports this growth. We introduce you to ideas from specialists and theorists and help you to answer all those questions that you have, about your childs physical development as they grow. We have mums, dads, nannies and grandparents who come and enjoy our sessions, everyone is welcome.
Competition results coming soon A FRIENDLY REMINDER- MINI MUSCLES IS FOR THE WELL CHILD
Please keep your child away if they have a runny nose and remember your child needs to be free of runny poo or vomiting for 2 days before it is safe for them to be around other children. Viruses and germs spread quickly in warm rooms.
GUIDELINES FOR PARENTS AND CAREGIVERS
Please help keep Mini Muscles a fun place for children to come. You are responsible for your child within this environment and you need to have them in your sight at all times. If you are involved in a conversation with another adult, position yourself so that you can see your child and that you can step into help if needed. Children cannot see through groups of parents standing talking in the middle of the room, grouping like this can block their view of equipment and activities. If your child is participating during group music time, please support them to do so by keeping this time a chat free zone for adults in order for the children to gain the most from the activities they enjoy. One hour of your week is a short time to devote your attention to your child's amazing developing skills. Mini Muscles is for the enjoyment of you and your child together
Thanks for your consideration
When the Crown Range Road is closed in Winter, due to snow, we need people willing to step in at the last minute to open up and set up equipment until I am able to drive safely to Queenstown from Wanaka. Please contact me if you are interested
