Definitely not too young!!:)
We started at 11 weeks at a mommy & me that did circle time and then each week there was a mommy question and answer time. It was great to see how much my ds would remember as the weeks went by! I was so happy to get out of the house and be with other moms who were also exhausted!!Chat Icon

Re: When do you start taking classes and stuff with your infant?

I took DD to a trial class at the little gym when she was about 5 months. I think she was too young to do anything.

But I signed her up for the summer session, she was about 8.5 months and she loved it. We still go and she is the "mayor" of her class. Chat Icon

Our library has a class for babies 0-17 months. I think music together is great for any age. I wish I started my son earlier.

We started DD in Music Together at 9 1/2 months. She is still in it and loves it!

Re: When do you start taking classes and stuff with your infant?

If I were a SAHM, Id have had Abby in classes as soon as I could. Weekends are fine too but I felt that Abby deserved to spend time with both of her parents on the weekend. This summer, I will not be working and I look forward to participating in classes with Abby during the week. Odds are I will also enroll in weekend classes during football season - it's not like I am going to see DH anywayChat Icon

Re: When do you start taking classes and stuff with your infant?

I did a new moms group from Good Sam. at 4 wks and now swimming lessons at 6 months and story hour at the library. For the Moms who thought Gymboree was a waste, do you mind me asking why? I used to work there a few years back and thought about returning for a class. What made the other programs better? Now that it's Spring I want to try a few other classes. Does anyone have any Baby Yoga info?

ETA: You can always do trial classes to see what you think!

ETA Again: I should also clarify - it's def. not a waste if you go, but I don't think at that age she will get much from it!

I agree...we waited until a year to do most of the classes because I felt DS was too young to really gain anything from it.

I would look into the library. They have a free story time and I know our library has a few branches so they have them a few times a month.

I did a trial class at gymboree and didnt like it as I felt it wasnt active enough for DS but I think it would have been great a few months ago.

We do tot music (music together program) and he loves it there is a child about 7 months in the class who "participates" but the infant maybe 12 weeks stopped coming as she just slept through the whole class.

What area are you located in?

ETA: A friend does a mommy and me at CFA in smithtown for ages 0-6 m onths
