Re: Gymboree
Honestly I am not that impressed by it. I had a pass for a free month (which was a whopping 1 class per week at 40 minutes, I believe) but if I had to pay the monthly fee, I would be pretty disappointed. I was pretty surprised when I found out that the free month meant just 1 class per week, because initially I thought it meant that she could attend any and/or all of the 3 classes offered for her age group(I think they were scheduled for Wed, Fri, or Saturdays) But when I found out that the $50 per month was for 1 class per week at less than an hour each, plus an enrollment fee!.... I felt it was overpriced and not worth the money.
I took my daughter when she was 8 months old. The play is VERY directed, but to the point that my daughter got a little frustrated. For instance it would be time to climb on one piece of equipment and explore.... and just as she was beginning to explore on her own, we'd have to move on to the next activity. The short class time was good because of the age group, but the frequency was lacking IMO.
Anyway that was my take on it. Maybe it's better for older kids, but I didn't think the baby classes were all that great.

Very true! DD isn't in daycare yet so I am trying to think of ways to get us both out of the house. I'm making less money since I'm only PT. Between the California trip and our upcoming CT trip I am broke. I'd be fine if we didn't travel anywhere. I miss having my extra travel money! It's all worth it for me to only work PT though so I will have to get better at stretching every dollar to where I think is best.
