for a healthier body and mind

Before spending our winter vacation , my first week was intended for recreational activities. My parents have enrolled me for a five day sports activities from 9 in the morning to 5 in the afternoon. It was really a good timing because my Mom just got her license and she was able to accompanied me going forth and back to sports center. If not, we are obliged to take the public transportation (metro and bus) in the middle of winter, carrying bags and stroller on the side ! With thick clothes, gloves and bonnet though Marseille is not the coldest place in France but we are anyhow oblige to wear them. Bringing me there is not an easy task to do, it requires a lot of effort! Not to mention bringing my little sister in the midst of coldness but I guess she doesn't pay attention anyway! Look at her, she's even happy to play and I am sure if she's just a bit older (btw, they accept children of 2 years old there) she will be eager to join the club !

This was my first day and the 2 young women behind me were my animatrices (organizers or leaders of the group where I belong ages 3 & 4years old) there are also other ages and activities are more rigid co'z they are older than us !



These are the activities we do !

1. Football (Soccer)
2. Basketball
3. Gymnastics
4. Lutte or what we call martial arts (but very basic)
5. Dance hip hop
6. Handballl
7. Volleyball
8. Athlétisme (Running)
9. Rugby

And many other things ! We also have some presentations and games indoors especially if it's too windy (mistral as we call in Marseille)!




My Mom stayed for half an hour to see how things work out for us children! She took pictures and videos ! Then, what do you think ? I prefer going to SMUC and do sports....it is good for the health! Staying at home is good but I will just be tempted to watch TV so better to go out and play, that way I can develop my physical skills and gain more friends !
