Weekly activities for an active 19mo near Kensington
Hi all,
I am currently in search for some activities for my active 19 month old, Leo. I’m having a hard time finding anything close to us. We live in Kensington. Looking for tot soccer, tot gymnastics, weekly music/dancing etc. Anything for an energy outlet. I’ve found Little Kickers but driving to Alameda is a bit farther then I’d like. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
Best,
Talia

Hi,
I have active 2 and 4.5 year olds in Kensington. Here are some places I like taking them to to get energy out:
- Gymboree at the El Cerrito Plaza
- Totland park near North Berkeley Bart
- Blake Garden in Kensington to climb through the two tunnels in the gardens
- Kensington Park (the play structure)
- Soccer Shots on the weekends in Cedar Rose Park
- We're on the waitlist for CAL youth gymnastics (https://recwell.berkeley.edu/youth-recreation/year-round-programs/gymna…)
- El Cerrito Recreation offers several active classes, such as soccer and gymnastics. I think the youngest a kid can be is 2, and several classes don't start until your kiddo is 3 (https://www.el-cerrito.org/DocumentCenter/View/19133/Fall-rECguide-23-O…)
Lastly, I do a Moms' bootcamp workout in Kensington Park offered M, W, and F from 9:30 am - 10:30 am. My 2 year old plays with the other kids and has fun in the park while I work out (and chase after him). It's a great group of Moms, so I get a workout and friendship!

Have you considered Gymboree in El Cerrito Plaza? We take our 17-month old there for some indoor free play.
