On The Go Chicago

This morning I visited Bellybum Boutique , and attended their Dance With Me Toddler class.  If your toddler loves to dance, they will love this class.  The instructor, Malik, has an eclectic mix of music and props to get your little one’s and your booty shaking.  Between jingling hip scarves and maracas, everyone was wiggling and giggling around the room.  The kids were having a great time, and us moms were burning some serious calories.  It took a little while for my two year old to warm up, but once she felt comfortable, she was jumping around the room with a big smile on her face.  My one year old was ready to bounce and dance as soon as the music started, and I had to pry the maraca out of her hands at the end.

It was great to find a class that was appropriate for both of my girls.  With a one and two year old, I have a hard time finding classes we can all attend together.  Bellybum even offers a sibling discount, which us mom’s of two always appreciate. I also loved that they allow drop-ins. I always like to try out a class before I purchase a series.
