Back in June, we decided to enroll Lydia in a Tae-Kwon-do class and it's been such a good decision! She loves it! Last week she was able to do her first test and moved from a white belt to a yellow belt.
It's great because not only is she learning the skills, they talk in class about self-defense, confidence, and respect. In order to test for her belt, she had to get her five strips. The green stripe is for performance in class, the red stripe is for performance at school (and is a form filled out by her teacher,) the black stripe is doing chores at home, the blue stripe is for reading 5 books, and the yellow stripe is behavior at home.
We've seen a significant improvement in Lydia's behavior since she started the class, which is probably a combination of the class, getting a little bit older, having her own activity, etc. Plus, it's been fun to watch her learn the techniques and become more confident in the class.

The lighting in the room isn't very good so it's been hard to get good pictures, so these aren't great but they are the best I have.
