The group of 20 children aged from 18 months through to five-years-old joined with their mums and local gym instructors Lisa McGrath and Nicky Western for a special morning of fitness fun.
The event marked one year since the inception of Kinder Gym to Fun Fit Kidz in Scone.
Kinder Gym is only one of the services offered, but it is also one of the most popular.
After starting out with about 12 youngsters, the group now runs on Tuesdays and Thursdays with about 20 in each.
The aim of the activity is to develop balance, upper body strength, fine motor skills and other gymnastics skills in young children and to get them out and about in a fun environment.
The group is operated by three qualified gymnastics and kinder gym coahces – McGrath, Western and Belinda Woodley, at the new revamped Scone Youth Centre shed.
The shed has come up well for the use with its new carpet donated from the old library building, upgrades and a fresh paint job.
The youngsters that attended this week enjoyed 45 minutes of jumping, dancing and circuits based on gymnastics movements before a yummy cake baked by one of the mothers.
All are welcome to go along to a Kinder Gym session on Tuesday or Thursday from 9.30am.
