Tumble Tots York

The moment they discover they can climb everything.

One day they are walking. The next, everything becomes a potential climbing frame.

While it might look like chaos at home, this stage is an important part of developing strength, coordination and confidence through movement and exploration.

Book a session or find your nearest Tumble Tots centre to support your child’s development through structured physical play.

Walking is often seen as the point where development becomes more established, but in reality it is one of the most important transition stages in early childhood.

This is the moment where movement shifts from being supported to being independent. Children begin to explore their abilities more intentionally, testing balance, coordination and control through everyday movement.

These experiences form the foundation for how confidence and physical capability develop in the stages that follow.

Our Walking to 2 Years class is designed to support children during this key period of rapid growth, providing structured movement opportunities that match their stage of development and help build essential physical skills over time.

👋 Come and say hello! 👋

🔴 🟠 🟡 We are at TOTFest TODAY!! 🟢 🔵 🟣

Joining us for your first Tumble Tots session?

To help your child feel comfortable and ready to explore, we recommend:
🟡Comfortable clothing suitable for movement
🔵 Bare feet for grip and balance on equipment
🟠 A drink for after the session
🟢 Arriving ready to explore at your child’s own pace

Every child responds differently in a new environment. Some are eager to try everything straight away, while others prefer to watch before joining in.

That is all part of the process, and our sessions are designed to support children as they build confidence over time.

Starting the 3 years to school age class marks an important step in a child’s development.

At this stage, children begin to take on more independence within sessions, build greater control in their movement and engage more confidently with structured activities.

It is not just a new class. It is a progression into the next stage of their development journey.

Across the Tumble Tots network, we love to see children make this transition, each one building on what they have already achieved and moving forward at their own pace.

Tumble Tots will be attending TOTFest Yorkshire at Wetherby Racecourse on 17th May.

A full day designed for little ones means plenty of movement, excitement and very tired toddlers by the end of it.

If you are attending this year, make sure to come and find the Tumble Tots team during the event.

Development does not begin when children take their first steps.

Before walking, children are already building important physical foundations through movement, exploration and sensory experiences.

The Tumble Tots 6 Months to Walking class is designed to support this stage of development through carefully structured activities that encourage balance, coordination, body awareness and early physical confidence.

These early movement experiences help lay the groundwork for future stages of development across the wider Tumble Tots programme.

Understanding the importance of this stage helps parents see that development is already well underway long before independent walking begins.
