Move over Baby Einstein, there's another youngster brain booster in town.

GymbaROO centres are stimulating playgroups designed to maximise learning retention and basic motor skills for kids six weeks to five years old. Essential knowhow they'll master includes walking, running, language understanding and speaking. Which, let's be honest are not as easy as they look.

Operating for 24 years - with one in 1,000 Aussie kids attending the sessions each week - GymbaROO staff fuse scientific methods in neuroscience with fun activities and are updated on the latest pediatric articles. Parent participation is also key to success. Through parent evenings, weekly progress reports, home activities and videos, they are able to keep the stimulation on an upswing. Your kids will have no idea their new favourite game is promoting maths skills. Forty-five minute weekly BabyROO classes or Kindy GymbaROO sessions are run from 20 locations around Sydney. Your child will be ruling the ivory tower in no time.
