Ages 1.5 to 2.5 years
Play Group in Kothrud, Pune
A gentle, play-filled first step away from home for toddlers aged 1.5 to 2.5 years — building comfort, curiosity and early social skills.
Kilkari's Play Group is for toddlers aged 1.5 to 2.5 years and runs 9:30 AM to 12:00 PM, Monday to Friday. Children settle in gradually through sensory play, songs, stories and outdoor time, with helpers supporting diapering and early toilet training.
Play Group is often a child's first time in a classroom, so we keep it short, warm and familiar. Toddlers settle in at their own pace with sensory play, songs, stories and lots of gentle encouragement from teachers who know how big this step is.
