Emeraude as the wind, having fun during free time.

The look on her face says it all, this was a really fun morning!

Manitouwadge Best Start Hub’s prenatal programmer Reene Warren welcomed parents, caregivers and children to the Recreation Centre Arena Wednesday for Gross Motor Family Fitness.  The program, geared to children 2 – 4 years of age, is an excellent opportunity for families to get out of the house and chase away the winter blues.  Warren guides participants through fun filled activities which help them develop gross motor skills, crucial in healthy, early childhood development.  Warren encouraged everyone to come out and join in the fun! 

Learning teamwork... Check out next week's Echo for more photos of the fun.
