“Gymboree is a wonderful interactive
program. Parents and children will be delighted to spend time together building
strong bonds that will last a lifetime.”
___Dr. Harvey Karp
It’s that time of the year again when I am eagerly anticipating the celebration of one of my favorite toddler’s birthday. My little nephew is turning a year old soon and we cannot just contain our excitement for planning his very first birthday party! A perfect birthday bash, however, remains incomplete without a special birthday gift for the little munchkin. Although, it’s pretty easy to find a super-duper cute birthday gift from any toy store, I had been on a hunt to find something exclusive and entertaining at the same time and that would benefit the baby in the long run. It was when I stumbled upon Gymboree Play & Music Pre-school after being suggested by a close acquaintance.
Getting to Know Gymboree Play & Music
Before I could finally enroll my little
nephew into any of Gymboree Pre-school programs, I decided to explore more
about this unique learning space, which eventually led to my very first visit
at Gymboree Play & Music Clifton Center in Karachi. And I am so glad I made
the right decision!
Greeted by such an amicable staff
at the reception, I could clearly tell that I was in for a delightful
experience. Ms. Javeria, a professionally-trained instructor at the center,
introduced me to various facilities including state-of-the-art Play Gym, Art
Studio and Skill Room. She further elaborated about how the colorful and unique
class equipment and various play & learn activities being conducted at the
center contributes towards early childhood development while producing a breed
of talented toddlers. The best part about Gymboree is its curriculum that has
been designed by its program directors in collaboration with the international
child development experts, Zero to Three.
By the time she had ended her
presentation, I was truly convinced about signing up my nephew for the
Pre-school program and following are the five reasons why it turned out to be
the best birthday gift for him;
- Learning
Through Play & Fun
One cannot just deny the
significance of playful learning in early childhood development process. Be it
physical play, construction play, symbolic play or language play, the
age-appropriate and goal-directed playful activities serve as an effective
vehicle in ensuring the best enrichment education to children. Gymboree provides such opportunities for learning through age-appropriate play &
learning activities that build confidence, creativity and imaginative skills in
a child aged between 0-5 years.
“Through Play & Learn, art,
movement to music, and tactile exploration, children start to figure out how
the world works around them.” And that’s exactly what I wanted for my little
Columbus.
- Where
Safety Comes First
From padded floors to various
super fun and colorful playing objects, every equipment is being specifically
designed by keeping the needs of children in mind. The play floor at Gymboree
provides a safe and secure environment for the kids to have fun, learn and explore
under individual attention by professionally-trained teachers.
- Treasured
Time with Your Munchkin
The best part about Gymboree
classes is the flexibility being given to parents to take part in various fun
activities along with their kids. Play dates and parties are being hosted each
month for the members to experience a specialized Gymboree party. At Gymboree,
it’s not just about kids but it also focuses on fostering a strong parent-child
bond. Even the aunts like us could play! 
- Fostering
Friendship
Gymboree Play & Music classes
not only let your tiny tots socialize and communicate in a friendly environment
but it also lets you network with mothers in the house making it a perfect hang-out
for new moms over cups and cradles.
- The Next
Best Kid
Gymboree Play & Music is a
center of holistic development that supports social, physical, emotional, and intellectual
growth of kids and preschoolers. It is a place where children can find a
plethora of learning opportunities and activities that are best suited to their
needs. Through these activities, they are not only able to develop academic and
cognitive skills but these also play an empirical role in cultivating
confidence, communication, perseverance, and cooperation that eventually builds
foundation for a healthy and happy future generation.
“Thank you Gymboree for giving my daughter the most amazing memories!
She learned to speak when she came here. You’ve taught her such wonderful
things,” says Mehreen Ahmed whose daughter had been taking classes at
Gymboree while Aima’s mother adds to it;
