Following. I wish it was one yr old. But it seems most activities are geared towards 3 year olds. Some for two

I would just start looking into different classes. I got my girl in gymnastics and she’s in the 18m-3yr class. They just wanted to make sure the kids can walk before they join. We actually started her around 20m or so just because money was tight before so as soon as we had enough money to pay monthly fees, I signed her up

We have Gymbaroo here which is more for motor activities from 6m and a sing along session and then there’s fairy ballet which I put my girls in when they were 2.5 and they continued dance until they were 14. Google around and see what dance schools are in your area or any gymnastics type groups it varies by state as well

Between 18 months and 2 years. My toddler started gymnastics at 19 months and now she’s done it so much she’s bored because the class isn’t changing anymore.

Most group activities like sports start closer to 3 because younger kids dont know how to work as a team and even at 3 it is a stretch. But you could start dance or gymnastics or something more personal than team before that. Maybe music classes?

we are doing soccer for 18-24 month age group and it’s so cute! i say worth it rn she learned how to flip cones this season. Dance classes at this age i feel like can be done for free but it’s up to you!
