Tennis

Li is into pretty much anything involving a ball these days but one sport he has really taken a liking to lately is tennis. He goes to the playground and takes turn hitting the ball against the wall with his little buds. The other day we were in the playroom and he gave me a pot while he was holding a skillet and we hit a ball back and forth…so, figured it was time to buy Li his very own racquet.


Paragon Sports is a large sporting store (four floors) at 867 Broadway & 18th St. They have pretty much everything sports related here, ski equipment, golf, tennis, running gear, baseball, football, soccer, hockey, camping, North Face, children’s sportswear, and a great selection of men’s and women’s sportswear as well.


Li is tall for his age, 90th percentile for height since the day he was born, and a natural born athlete. He’s quick and very coordinated so tennis seems to be a great sport for him. He loves to hit the ball against the wall and compete with me on who can hit the ball the most times in a row 😉 He has a lot of fun and he also is learning the more he practices, the better he will become. Go Li!
