Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

What organized activities is LO involved in?

I'm wondering what you do with your toddlers?  Trying to expand our horizons. 

DD takes swim lessons once per week. I'm thinking about taking her to the library for reading time.  There are so many other things I want her to try: ballet, karate, piano (though we don't have one so not sure how that will work out), gymnastics, horseback riding (which is my hobby so I al keeping fingers crossed that it is something she is interested in pursuing as well).  But she is too young for most of these activities.

Re: What organized activities is LO involved in?

  • DS1 started a gymnastics class around 18m and the post we're currently stationed at offers a class called Monkeynastix that you can sign up for at 18 months we will put DS2 in.  Aside from playdates and the occasional library story time, we don't have him enrolled in any activities at this point.

  • DD did a swim class around the time she turned 1, and will do that again when she turns 2 this fall and moves up to the next level class.  We went story time at the library a few times before she aged out of the Saturday one, but that's the only organized activities she's been in.  I think she would love a gymnastics class, but the times/days for the classes around here haven't worked out for us to be able to do it.  Plus, we want to be outside in the summer.  Maybe we'll find another class or something in the winter.  She just started part-time day care and they have a music program on Mondays where a Kindermusik teacher comes in, so I guess she has that, too.

    They're still so young to worry about organized activities, I think.  We go to the park/playground a lot, we have memberships at the zoo and aquarium and go to those places with her and sometimes with other friends of ours and their kids, we take her to the beach or swimming at family/friends' pools, we've gone to two different children's museums in the past month or so when they have discount Friday nights.

  • We do Little Gym on Fridays and swimming on Saturdays. She started both at 10 months and loves it.
