Kids, like tomatoes, grow on their own and bruise when squeezed too hard with a set of tongs. Today’s Groupon lets you coddle your human tomatoes: for $49, you get a one-month membership with waived initiation fee plus unlimited open gym attendance (up to a $125 total value) at Gymboree Play & Music. This Groupon is redeemable for learning-filled fun at either the Central Toronto or East Beaches locale.

Gymboree offers a bevy of baby-engaging classes in which parents and wee ones work together to build tots' creativity and encourage development through play. Weekly classes are available for all ages between the freshly born sapling to the 5-years-young wise wanderer. This deal includes rhythm-building music classes, imagination-expanding art classes, exhilarating sports classes, and Gymboree's most popular class, Play & Learn. The month-long membership allows you to take one class per week, with make-ups available during enrollment if you miss a class.

One Groupon must be purchased for each child, and each child must be accompanied by at least one adult (but more than one adult is welcome). The 45- to 60-minute classes help to build an everlasting bond that will feel like being tethered to each other with Ethernet cable. Bond with your baby, or exercise childlike energy in a public forum, with today's Groupon to Gymboree.

This deal is not valid for birthday parties, toys, or school-skills classes. Valid for new families only.

Reviews

Gymboree Play & Music was featured by More for Mom, and three Toronto Parents Guide reviewers give it a five-star rating:

• My daughter’s favourite thing was the huge tummy time mirror that the babies were placed on each week and balls were rolled around for them to watch…There was also a short time for moms to discuss different milestones or issues going on with their babies and it was a great way to seek advice from other moms. – More for Mom
• Gymboree is not a regular playground. It has a great educational and developmental focus. – a Toronto Parents Guide reviewer
