Glasgow offers dozens of different classes for babies and toddlers.  Glasgow babies can learn to throw balls, swim, play music or speak a foreign language.  But classes aren't too serious.  They're mainly a fun way to spend an hour or two in a safe and stimulating environment with friends.

Click on the menu to the left or the links below for details of specific types of classes.

Art classes
Unleash your child's creative potential in a toddler art class. Or simply have a lot of fun painting and craft-making without any of the usual mess on your kitchen floor, walls, ceiling...

Gym classes
Gym classes for babies and toddlers offer fun indoor exercise, using age-appropriate soft toys, climbing frames, balls, slides and balance beams to give opportunities to crawl, climb, run or jump.  Most classes include music, action songs and circle games.

Languages
This list is not for foreign language classes, but for bilingual parent-and-toddler groups that meet for play sessions.  After all, learning languages should be fun!  Native speakers, fluent outsiders and culturally curious parents are welcome.  Baby signing, another form of communication, is also listed here.

Music classes
In a city so famous for its vibrant music scene, you should expect brilliant musical offerings for babies and toddlers.  In addition to the great classes listed here, check our current events listings on the Home page for children's concerts and dances.

Story hours
Most libraries in Glasgow host Bounce and Rhyme sessions for children ages 0-3.  Check this list to find the ones nearest to you.

Swim classes
In addition to swimming classes for children aged 4 months to 4 years, these sports centres have learner's swimming pools for babies and toddlers (always accompanied by their parents), which are open for general swimming during non-class times.

Yoga & massage
Yoga and massage for babies and toddlers are activities that are rapidly gaining widespread acceptance in Glasgow.  They may not have existed when your parents were raising you, but now even your health visitor may suggest that you try them!
