I set up these classes so you and your child can just be yourselves, connect, and explore, all without worrying about making a mess at home. ### What We Do - Sensory play is big here. Think oobleck, colored rice, muddy art, and water play. I love seeing the kids dive in, and you join the fun too. - Every session has a fresh theme. Sometimes we paint with spaghetti or read a story like "Gajapati Kulapati," then make something crafty from it. - We mix in music, movement, a bit of yoga, and always leave space for kids to follow their own curiosity. ### How It Helps - These are not just fun and games - activities are planned to help with fine and gross motor skills, creativity, and social confidence. - You'll get time for proper parent-child bonding - no distractions, just you and your little one. - Kids learn sharing, waiting turns, and that all feelings are totally normal, all in a mixed-age group. ### Doing Our Bit - Most crafts use recycled or natural stuff - like Amazon boxes, coconut shells, or old bottles. It’s a small way to show kids that making something cool doesn’t need fancy materials. ### Who It's For If your child is between 6 months and 5 years, and you’re keen to learn and play together, these sensory play classes for toddlers are for you. Any parent, grandparent, or nanny is welcome to join in. ## Highlights Browse through Doe A Dear's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/doeadear_earlyyears/parent-toddler-development-classes/featured) - ![We believe play is the most important work of childhood, and it's even more magical when you join in.
