tennisstar88 agony auntPerhaps she had an argument with one of the other children and she feels alienated. Or she's not making in friends?? It can be anything.

Just tell her that you're going to go with her to her classes and watch her do a good job. Then give her positive feedback when she's jumping, flipping, whatever you do in tumbling class.

This is verified as being by the original poster of the question

she is 6 years old and she loves it when shes there and the children all get on well in the group as its only a small class and the coach is very supportive and encouraging she wont really say what she doesnt like its just when we are leaving to go to the class she doesnt want to go, is there any way i could possibly distract heras i would love her to continue as she is progressing well and fear that she may regret me not keep taking her in the futre?

thank you

tennisstar88 agony auntReally, they have trampoline classes? Is it sort of like gymnastics?

Are you doing this to get her socialize with children her own age? If she all of the sudden doesn't want to go for whatever reason, there's no sense in forcing her or paying for them. In that case just purchase a trampoline for your backyard(if you have one).

Now if you've already shelled out for the classes up front and they were pricey then I'd make her go and perhaps sit at the class if that's feasible with your schedule.

angelDlite agony aunthow old is she? what doesn't she like about it? is she scared or she doesn't like the other kids? or she would rather stay at home playing with her toys and watching tv? i don't see the point of you struggling to take her to a club she doesn't want to go to, its supposed to be fun, not a chore

i think trampolines can be dangerous anyway. is there something else she might prefer? a dance school for example
