My daughter loves the Y. There have been several activities that she has participated in over the past few years, including swimming, art, and science. I like that it is a place she enjoys where she gets to engage in healthy leisure.
Love the warm pool for my little one! Makes easing her into the water so much easier.
My only complaint about our class is the class size, it is quite large and makes hearing the instructor a little hard.

I recently tried Parent and Tot Yoga and it was amazing! It helps you breathe, stretch, and connect with your little one.
