DD (3) started Kindergym this year and absolutely loves it, she doesn't really interact with the other kids much, but she is always talking about 'Kindergym on Fridays'!
Ours is only about $80/term, and there are plenty of mums there with two kids, some have three. I don't think there is a strict 'one parent for one kid' rule and while I can see the safety aspects of it, I think it's a bit odd to be so strict about it. I'm sure there'd be many parents who have more than one child at the same time?
Apparently they are quite strict on it - DD1 & 2 must follow each other (so same equipment same time) and there is to be no more than 1 adult per child (so if DP came and it was only DD1 then we both couldn't be on the floor with her.
It's going to be more of an issue keeping DD2 occupied and following on that it will DD1 so i will see how we go.
DD2 does gymnastics and we have a couple of parents who have 2 kids with them. It's hard work but if one runs off the other parents help regroup them. DD2 loves it but has only really started being good about following directions and doing what she is meant to in the last few months, and we pay about $120 per term!
