The fun at Gymboree Play & Music began in 1976. Its mission states that the programs are based on the understanding that relationships and experiences in the first three years of life have a profound impact on a child’s future, and that Gymboree Play & Music programs can aid parents and caregivers in nurturing this component of development. The programs are research-based, created by experts in early childhood development, and use specially designed classes with age-appropriate activities that support physical, cognitive, and social skill development as children play. Gymboree Play & Music centers are owned and run by people described as caring about giving children the absolute best start in life.
Parents describe Gymboree Play & Music, Toms River as welcoming and friendly, and mention that the space is super clean and that everyone is amazing with the kids. One parent of a 2½-year-old says their child never wants to leave, and another parent of a 4-month-old credits the tools taught in class with their child being described as advanced. Families note that staff take time to help children who have a hard time separating at drop-off, and that music class with Miss Rachael includes the origin of an artist or genre, motor skills, memorization, and parent involvement. Parents also report that children especially enjoy activities with the parachute or bubbles and that they have seen their children’s confidence and abilities grow over the months they have attended.
