Let's Play!

Watson has been itching to do something the big kids do--we decided to try a little soccer. I guess 3 is a little young for the sport so there aren't many teams to choose from. Little Kickers was available with once a week sessions. Watson got a cute little uniform and his own soccer ball. Coaches Ollie and David taught him to do "tiny" kicks and control the ball. They played games like the ball was a car driving around with red, yellow, and green lights. Watson got to practice kicking the ball into the goal and really attached to the skill of not using his hands. Coach Ollie was from England and Coach David Scotland. Their accents were enough to keep him interested and they were great to play with him. He liked it but got a little restless about not being able to kick the ball really hard. He listened really well and stayed with the group during the games. He will be ready for the big leagues come spring!
