About Us

Welcome to Tumble Tots Bolton and Bury!

Tumble Tots launched in 1979 and our franchise has been going from strength to strength ever since we opened our doors in September 2015. The programme which we run is designed to develop a child’s physical skills, specifically agility, climbing, balance and co-ordination and this is done through the use of our specially designed colourful equipment.

All our classes are run by specially trained staff who adapt and tailor their delivery so that each child gets the most out of the programme whilst having fun with others of a similar age. In addition to the physical skills we also include numbers, shapes, rhymes, action songs and social skills. We understand that each child is unique and we love watching little ones grow in confidence and developing that sense of achievement when they have mastered a new skill / obstacle.

Tumble Tots Bolton and Bury hold classes 5 days a week (Monday to Friday) for children from 6 months up to school age. We change the layouts every two weeks so that your little one will always have new challenges to take on.

Our classes are currently held in Blackrod on Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday, Prestwich on Thursday, Tottington on Friday.

We have won the following awards which we are very proud of:

- Raring2go Winner of best pre-school class 2018 in the area

- Finalist in the Bolton Mark Sports and Health Initiative of the year awards for our Healthy Heroes week

If you would like to find out more about our classes please give me a call on 07496 212259 or email us at carla.hamilton@tumbletots.com

Our Mission

Our mission is to develop children’s essential ‘Skills for Life’ and to create a positive association with physical activity at an early age, helping little ones grow up healthy and happy.

Our Values

Development is at the heart of our programme because children develop faster in the first three years of their lives compared to any other time.

Therefore, it is important to introduce little ones to a range of different activities as early as possible to help them learn and develop physical, cognitive, and social skills.

Our Values

Our mission is to develop children’s essential ‘Skills for Life’ and to create a positive association with physical activity at an early age, helping little ones grow up healthy and happy.

Our Programme

Our programme is designed to develop children’s physical, cognitive and social skills through a range of activities using our brightly coloured bespoke wooden, foam and handheld equipment.

Each individual piece of apparatus and the activities that accompany them, are specially designed to aid a different aspect of children's development, and vary between the classes to reflect the developmental needs of that age group.

We provide a happy and safe environment for children to meet and engage with other little ones, as well as grownups, forming and building relationships which are important for social learning and personal wellbeing.

As children progress through the programme, they will develop and refine their skills further, learn new proficiencies and gain more confidence in their abilities, which is one of many reasons parents chose Tumble Tots.

Our Motto

“Your child’s springboard to confidence!”

We believe that we provide children with a platform to gain confidence:

•  Physically - the confidence to try new activities and take on bigger challenges.
•  Socially - the confidence to interact with others and express themselves.
•  Cognitively - the confidence to ask questions and take initiative.
•  Personally - the confidence in themselves to be able to achieve their goals.

Our Story

Tumble Tots was first created in 1979 by former British Olympic gymnastics coach, Bill Cosgrave who identified that the children coming to his sessions were not equipped with the necessary fundamental physical skills needed to perform basic gymnastic movements.

Consequently, he developed classes to teach children these simple but essential skills, before moving on to his gymnastics lessons, which evolved into the progressive physical play programme that we know and love today.

Whilst our classes have remained largely unchanged over the years, our programme has evolved through a greater understanding of the importance of physical activities in overall early years development.

The longevity of Tumble Tots is a testament to the quality of our programme which is demonstrated by past generations who see the value of classes by benefiting themselves and therefore bring their children and grandchildren today.
