Best of All: GiGiFIT Participants!

is continual, measurable, celebrated and it never ends. It is a daily challenge to do a little better than you did the day before and it’s always celebrated. Possible manifestations: standing just one second longer, reading just one more word, learning just one new number, taking just one more step, never a competition, never completed.

Our goal at GiGi’s Playhouse is to celebrate every display of a learner’s Best of All! We do this through purposeful programs at our Playhouses that start at the prenatal stage and develop into adulthood, such as GiGiFIT!  Participants in GiGiFIT are motivated by their peers both physically and emotionally as they strive for their personal Best of All, and we wanted to share some celebration moments with you!

  • Infant – Olivia (12 months old) was standing with minimal support during our most recent session! And Cece (6 months) had great visual scanning this past week when utilizing the egg shakers!
  • Toddler – Joyanna (age 2) is really engaging with jumping on the trampoline and started marching at home after practicing at the Playhouse during a recent session.
  • Kids – Matthew (9 years) has been really engaging with peers and making sure everyone gets involved – what a great way to motivate his peers!
  • Teen – Maylee (14 years) has been coming out of her shell recently – she was engaging with peers and initiating conversation and we are so proud of her for this.
  • Adult – Tyler (35 years) put his full effort into engaging in the battle rope activity and has been improving steadily since week one.

We are so proud to see the continued learning and growth across the lifespan. That’s just one reason why we pride ourselves in making a lifetime commitment to families! Learn more about our GiGiFIT family of programs and how you can get involved HERE.
