Reach for this book when your child is about to start their first gymnastics class, sports league, or even just a new preschool program where they will be expected to follow instructions in a large, unfamiliar space. This gentle concept book follows Corey and Abby as they demystify the sights and sounds of a gymnasium, turning a potentially overwhelming environment into a playground of discovery. Through their journey, children learn that being active is a source of joy and that mastering new physical skills is a reason for pride. It is a perfect choice for parents who want to normalize physical fitness and build confidence in toddlers and preschoolers who might be hesitant about big, echoey buildings or trying new movements. By focusing on the fun and social aspects of exercise, it helps frame physical activity as an exciting 'big kid' milestone rather than a chore.
