Monkeying around in the park – give your toddler the freedom to climb and explore

What you need 

  • A local park with play equipment 

 

What to try 

  • Visit a local park and encourage your toddler to climb on age-appropriate equipment.  
  • Look for mini climbing frames, slides and furniture.  
  • Give them time to try exploring where to place their arms and legs on the equipment. 
  • Step in only when necessary. 

 

Good to know 

Parks usually have a soft surface underfoot so are ideal for practising this new skill.
