Any of you who have a toddler at home know how difficult it is to keep them busy. My 2 yr. old Liam and I were feeling a little lonely and uninspired at home. I knew he needed more structure and exposure to new activities and children and I was looking to add more programs to his schedule.
As if she read my mind, Sharyn, of Toddler Adventure Group (TAG), sent me an email and invited us to experience one of her playgroups . Sharyn is a toddler expert who runs structured playgroups for 18-36 month olds in the Thornhill Woods area. A playgroup is 90 minutes long and includes skill development through play, songs, crafts, and much more.
As soon as Liam and I sat on a carpet covered in colourful little pompoms, I knew that this wasn’t just another playgroup. Every minute at TAG is planned to help toddlers grow and hone skills that most of us take for granted. Sharyn brings warmth, energy and new materials every week to engage and stimulate the little ones and she reminds us to do things at toddler speed, toddler height, toddler fun. While Liam was enjoying every minute of his participation, I too was learning. Being in the company of other adults while focusing on my child felt great. Learning to teach my toddler important skills through play was inspiring and being reminded that toddlerhood is a magical time was simple here.
