Can you believe they have t-ball for kids these little? The starting age is 3 so when Jonah and Leila turned 3 I didn't waste any time signing them up. It's so exciting to see your kids in their first sports. They loved it. It was a good team building experience as well as taking instruction from a coach. They learned how to run bases, catch ground balls, throw properly, and hit a ball with the bat.Then as their reward for being good kids in practice, they got to play on the playground at the park! They sure loved that playground. It was good motivation for them to listen because at first they had a really hard time paying attention to Coach Eric. When they would stretch at the beginning of practice, Jonah and Leila were too shy and would just stand there. Then they'd have to warm up by running and chasing the coach. Yeah, they weren't into that much either lol. Then when it came to running the bases, Leila would mope her shoulders and literally walk in slow motion, not wanting to comply. They will hopefully get more comfortable as they go along :)

I used to play softball as a kid. I have such fond memories of the game, I hope to get Alex into it when he's a little older. :)
