Spotacular Children in Need

Posted: 7th November 2022

Children in Need is coming soon and it’s going to be SPOTacular!

Whether you want to Walk with Joe, take on a SPOTacular challenge, or host a SPOTacular bake sale, you’ll be doing it for a very good cause.

Children in Need believes that every child should have the chance to thrive and be the best they can be. They are committed to funding grassroots organisations and project workers in every corner of the UK, who provide the vital relationships and support to help the children who need them most.

Gymboree Play & Music is getting involved this year by encouraging our members to come to classes in SPOTacular fancy dress during the week 14-18 November! We’ll have a bucket for you to throw some spare change in or you can donate via the QR code, or online if you want. But please don’t worry, there’s no obligation to donate, your classes will run as normal, we’ll just be having even more fun!

In the meantime why not have a go at some spotty colouring-in at home to get you in the mood!

Both of my children (3.5 years and 11 months) go to Gymboree Play & Music and love it. My toddler goes to their drop-off Lego class which she raves about. It's very creative, working not only on Lego skills but also painting, drawing etc. My infant son loves his Gymboree Play & Music Crawlers class - particularly loves crawling all over their props, through the tunnels, etc. Great way to get the infant crawling over obstacles! Gymboree Play & Music is part of our weekly schedule for both kids and we look forward to participating every week. Invaluable!

Gymboree Play & Music was a lovely and positive experience for my son Leo. We started when he was 9 months and he is now 3 years old, I wish we had started sooner.
He loves the songs (which is part of our daily singing at home), the freedom to explore and he was happy there. He looks forward to class every week and once class is over he will tell everyone about Gymbo and what he did.
For me, I liked that it taught him how to get down safely from a height, how to learn to use his body, and touching on different topics every 2 weeks. It gave me confidence in other environments to trust that he has the ability that he learned from Gymboree Play & Music and to trust him.

I’ve been taking both my newborn and toddler to Gymboree Play & Music for a couple of months now and both boys are really loving the classes and open gym sessions. It’s a great way to meet other mums, entertain toddlers at witching hour(!) and get ideas for sensory play with babies. Sophie and Cat are fantastic and have so much energy and loads of different ideas for the classes, plus make sure the activities it’s help children meet their development milestones as well. Highly recommend this if you’re thinking about joining!! Thanks so much Sophie, Cat and the wider team :-)
