A toddler at play at The Cradle

Toddler, 13 - 24 months

Room to explore for your busy little mover

Curious, on the move and into everything, exactly as they should be. We turn your toddler's boundless energy into language, movement and discovery through guided, hands on play, for ages 13 to 24 months.

The stage

Big feelings, busy hands, fast growing minds

Between one and two, the world cracks wide open. Your toddler is walking, climbing, naming things and testing every limit. We meet that energy with structure and patience, channelling it into play that quietly builds real skills.

A predictable daily rhythm of stimulation, rest and play gives toddlers the security to be brave. Our facilitators guide each child through our stimulation centres, where building, sorting, sounds and stories grow young brains across cognitive, physical, spiritual and character development.
