Sebastian is my six-year old and he says some of the funniest things–we have no idea where he gets his material since his mother and I are rather boring, serious people.
Monday was Sebastian’s second try at breaking his first board in Tae Kwon Do. The first immediately followed his brother’s successful attempt on Saturday, which did not go well (it ended in tears).
The following two days included at least a dozen requests to buy some boards of our own to practice on. There was also this exchange:
Sebastian: “Can I try to break Nathan’s board again?”
Me: “No, the pieces are too small.”
Sebastian: “Can’t we just tape it back together?”
At the next class, Sebastian was determined to try again. Here was the result:
Good for Sebastian!!

Ok, now I want to try it myself too! Seems like a great exercise for inner thighs, lower back, thighs, ankles. Not so great for self-esteem considering I will fail repeatedly
way to go, Sebastian!!!!!!

It was eating him alive that his brother had already done it (depite the fact that his brother is 5 1/2 years older).

Excellent job – and his board holders seemed antsy. He should get extra points for that!

The one closest to the camera was his brother, and wanted Seba to break it so badly….

Do the boards get thicker each level they go up? They do at our TKD 😉

I am not sure about thicker, but I think they stack a couple together at some point.

YES! Forget boards. That child will be breaking hearts before you know it. So fantastic!
