Boulder Babies

A weekly climbing and play session for those little ones aged 1-4.

Club overview

Got a little one who can't walk past a climbing frame without attempting to scale it? Boulder Babies is the perfect introduction to the wall — a relaxed, playful session where toddlers and pre-schoolers can explore movement, build coordination and burn off some of that seemingly endless energy.

Part soft play, part low-level climbing, all fun.

How it works and what to expect

Boulder Babies is a parent-led session, which means you're right there with your child every step of the way — guiding, encouraging and probably having more fun than you expected. One of the FBR team will be on hand throughout to facilitate the session and help out, but this is your time together on the wall.

Sessions run during term time only, on Tuesdays and Fridays, and booking is strongly advised — these sessions are popular and spaces go quickly.

A welcoming, unhurried environment where little ones can move at their own pace. Some will be bold from the moment they arrive. Others might take a few sessions to find their feet — and that's completely fine. There's no pressure, no agenda and no wrong way to play.

What they'll develop

Coordination & balance — low-level climbing and soft play that challenges little bodies in all the right ways

Confidence — exploring movement in a safe, supportive space with you close by

Spatial awareness — learning how their body moves and what it can do

A love of climbing — the earlier it starts, the deeper it tends to go
