cartwheel (Photo credit: juliecampbell)
What kinds of fun can you get into with your kids and more importantly what kind of fun can they get into on their own??
I like cartwheeling, because I remember I worked on it with my aunt and my mom for almost an entire summer, I was probably 4. Then I remember when I finally got it I would spend all afternoon doing cartwheel after cartwheel after cartwheel.
I did lots of cartwheels up until I was a teenager and started again when I had my first daughter. When she was around 1, I found that cartwheels were super impressive to her. Now she’s 4, almost 5 and I’m trying to help her learn cartwheels.
I honestly haven’t seen anyone else do them in forever.
If your kids cartwheel what age did they learn, and how?

So agree with the childhood love of cartwheels. I used to do them until I was so dizzy the sky was spinning. My son is sooo not coordinated and NO, does not know how to do one!
