Keeping busy with toddlers in winter in Edmonton

Since it’s cooled down outside, I’m finding myself going a little stir crazy with a busy toddler running around. My daughter has lots of energy to burn, and our house is not always the place to do it. I searched out some local spots for us to visit and keep us both happy.

The Discoveryland gallery has an awesome assortment of activities for little ones to explore. Kids can climb aboard an airplane and pretend to be pilots in the Sky High gallery. Cloud Burst, the water play area, is equipped with a water table and plastic balls that travel down a whirlpool! At the Blue Sky section, kids can play music on a cloud piano, climb up into a treehouse and build with blocks. And, if your kids are fairly young, Tot Galaxy is specifically for infants and toddlers age three and under, and has an infant care room.

Edmonton Public Library

10212 Jasper Ave NW, Edmonton, AB T5J 5A3

The Edmonton Public Library is like hitting the jackpot for keeping little ones entertained. You can hang out in the kids’ section, read books and take some home to read. They also have a great program where they offer a free library card to your new babes and a cute welcome package (you get to pick out a free board book!). There are also free programs, like singing, signing and rhyming, for ages 0 to 3. This is a great way for parents to learn new songs; we seem to be stuck singing the same ones over and over again.

Strathcona County Kinsmen Leisure Centre

2001 Oak St, Sherwood Park, AB T8A 0W9

This indoor playground is designed from children ages six months to five years old. Admission for children two and under is free. I love the variety this indoor playground offers: There are soft climbing structures, perfect for younger toddlers who are learning to climb and explore. The pirate ship has a slide and a little cave below deck. One of my daughter’s favourite things about this playground is the trolley full of balls. The playground is usually quieter on weekday evenings, which is a perfect time for post-supper playtime. It’s a great way to tire out the munchkins before bedtime.

Fitness studios with classes for moms and babies

Before becoming a mom, fitness was a huge part of my life. I exercised up until the day before my daughter was born. As soon as my doctor cleared me to workout, I couldn’t wait to get back at it. The difference now was that I had a cute little sidekick. Finding places to workout where I could bring my daughter along was a great way to get out of the house, bond with my daughter and set a great example for her.
