What Are The Benefits?

All our sessions have been created on the understanding that toddlers learn best when they are exploring their world, with an attentive adult, engaged in play.

Each session consists of developmentally appropriate activities for children and adults to enjoy together. It also provides a place for parents to meet, share common experiences and learn about their child’s development.

Toddler Explorers is the perfect way for a parent/carer and child to experience a museum visit at an early stage in the child’s development.
