My daughter likes to tell me she is strong like daddy because she does CrossFit and we get the flexing of the biceps that comes with that."
We signed up our 3 year old for the Kids CrossFit program at CrossFit Viral pretty much as soon as she turned 3. We were a bit concerned that she would be overly shy and intimidated and we were told we could come do a free class to dip our toe in the water before we signed up.
Our daughter was, as expected, very shy at first. The coaches do an AMAZING job at making the kids feel included while still maintaining order and making it fun for everyone. The real heroes of the classes are the coaches, as you would think trying to organize a group of 3-6 year olds would be like herding opinionated cats, but they do such a good job without making the kids feel bad if they get overly rambunctious.
It really is about organized fun for the kids with some exercises and movements the kids can all do. My daughter likes to tell me she is strong like daddy because she does CrossFit and we get the flexing of the biceps that comes with that. She also likes to tell us about her “Strength Power”, which is fun and cool.
Lastly, I like that you can sign up and drop it whenever. We hit pause on the Kids Crossfit during soccer season and picked it right up as soon as the season was over. We love it and the kids do as well.
