"Our children have a fabulous time at the Leaps and Bounds classes. They are on the 2nd set of classes now and they absolutely love it. They have all developed their physical skills really well and we are delighted with the impact that our classes has on them. Parents are keen for the children to continue with the programme as they can see how much their children get out of them. We would highly recommend Leaps and Bounds classes".

"My daughter Millie absolutely loves Leaps & Bounds, we as parents have noticed how much more confident she has become and how well her balancing, catching and general motor skills have improved in such a short space of time. Millie can't wait for the class each week and we would recommend it to all parents. It's certainly Millie's favourite activity and I hope that many more schools and educational practices offer Leaps and Bounds as it's such a popular and important way to learn in a fun filled way.

Thanks for the success of Leaps & Bounds at Busy Bears. The children love the activity and it brings good variety to their daily routine. Their progress from start to end of the programme is excellent and the children do look forward to the weekly event. Staff are pleased to see how the children progress and improve weekly, and parents in turn are delighted that their children are both enjoying and learning at the same time. At Busy Bears we have great facilities with enough space indoors (and outdoors if the weather is very sunny). This in turn maximizes everyone’s enjoyment.
A great activity!

We are absolutely delighted with the Leaps & Bounds programme. The staff have noticed such a difference in the children - in their confidence, their self-esteem and their flexibility. The children have thoroughly enjoyed the session and the leader has been really wonderful with the children and must have the patience of a saint!
Karen Hudson - Head of Centre Coquet Early Excellence Centre
Older children enjoy weekly Leaps & Bounds (Tumble Tots) sessions, which provide further variety to their physical play. Children are very enthusiastic when particiapting in these sessions and are gaining good control of their bodies. All children move freely and confidently within designated areas of the nursery. They delight in the excellent range of activities, which they tackle enthusiastically.
