Now, it's your turn. I also teach the parents how to spot so they can carry their children through each rotation. It is a good time to explain safety issues such as spotting above the elbow or around the torso. I also demonstrate holding the child around the torso as they swing on bars to support their body weight and lifting their hips and supporting their neck as they roll. If the parent has any concerns or doubt about spotting, I ask them to allow me to do it.
Most parents get the hang of it and are soon very adept at spotting their children.
This frees me to move among them, working with children at each station or placing myself at the most important spotting station. The social aspect of these classes is a double-edged sword. As the children progress and the parents become more comfortable in their child's abilities, they tend to stand back more and chat with other parents. This is a common problem. I don't mind it as long as the children are able to remain on-task and can do the skills on their own.
