Rhyme ‘n Climb
£45.00 for 4 weeks
CHILDREN AGED 2, 3 & 4YEARS
TUESDAY 9:30-11AM or
FRIDAY 9:30-11AM
Our Rhyme ‘n Climb classes offer a safe, supportive and nurturing environment, where parents, carers and children can enjoy our climbing arena.
Each 4-week block is planned around a theme and linked to the Early Years Foundation Stage framework.
Sessions begin with stories and songs, before harnessing up and climbing in our climbing arena. After their climb, children are provided with a drink and snack to refuel before completing a craft activity.
In our Rhyme ‘n Climb Sessions, children wear our specific full body harnesses designed for toddlers, which have parent support ropes on to help guide them down the wall safely, for this reason we have a 1:1 ratio in our Rhyme ‘n Climb Sessions. Unless your child demonstrates independent descending skills and progresses from a toddler harness, they will not be able to reach the top of our walls.
Some of our walls are easier for smaller children to climb than others, just as some children are more confident to climb than others. If your 2-year-old is unsteady on their feet you may wish to wait a little longer before joining one of our Rhyme ‘n Climb classes.
