What to do with active 3 yr old? activites?
I have read QL inside and out and all see like older post regarding activities/playgroups for kids. My 3 yr old son is bouncing off the walls and I am about to join him. We currently don't have him in nursery/preschool as we are here just til Dec. HOwever I need to get him involved in something, as he is bored at home with me...any ideas, solutions (kind ones, plz :-) ) 3-4 days a week, drop him, go where ever...thanks in advance for any info!!!
I just started my daughter at a small private nursery and am thrilled with the results. The teacher is Indian, well qualified and very experienced. She covers the KG1 +Kg2 Indian syllabus plus does loads of extra activities like singing, art & craft etc It's a very safe and happy environment & my child loves going. Also the fees are very reasonable. If interested you can contact her at 4566703.

thank you Archiwoman, thats good news then. :D
IN ASPIRE THE REGISTRATION WAS OPEN LAST WEEK FOR YOUNG CHILDREN STARTING FROM9 MONTHS.
I also have an active 3 year old. We often go to the malls and play at the playplaces there. Our favorite is Fun City at the Centerpoint mall. You could also try Rays Reef at the Royal Plaza. We haven't been there yet but I understand they have art etc to do. Good luck!
no chance to go to aspire, they have long waiting list.
I dont know where do you live in Doha, but maybe you can try this playgroup:

Playball class :
Playball is a sports activity programme that teaches children ages 2 – 6 the basics of 8 ball sports together with
fine and gross motor skills, sportsmanship and enjoyment of sports in a non-competitive and fun environment.
The activity is taught by a trained Playball coach.
