My Child Is Too Young for Camp — What to Do at Off The Wall Kids for Ages 0–3 (London)

Your six-year-old is registered for camp. Your two-year-old is not. Now what?

Camp at Off The Wall Kids (539 First St, East London, Argyle near Fanshawe College) is ages 4–12 only — no exceptions. Here is what families with babies, toddlers, and three-year-olds do instead, and how to plan things to do in London when only some of your kids are in camp.

"Why 4–12 only"

Our camp license requires campers to be at least 4 years old. Anyone older than 12 is too old for our camp program — especially in a mixed group that includes four-year-olds.

That is legal and licensing — not a preference we can bend for one family.

"PA Days and school breaks — under 4"

Three-year-olds and younger use the building as parent-supervised drop-in play — pay admission, stay with your child, socks and waivers for everyone past admission.

Camp kids follow camp drop-off rules. Non-camp siblings do not join the camp floor.

"Sibling split day — what it looks like"

Six-year-old in camp: you drop off at camp admission; counsellors have them for the camp day. You do not need to supervise that child during camp hours.

Two-year-old not in camp: you supervise them as drop-in play — stay in the building, hands-on parenting.

Can you stay on site with a toddler while your other child is in camp? Yes — but parents tell us it often distracts the camper and can ruin the camp experience for the registered child. Many families prefer drop-in on a different day instead.

Smaller daycare outings can email info@offthewallkids.com — but most families with littles simply book drop-in individually.

"Realistic expectations"

Under-four drop-in is welcome year-round — including camp weeks. The building will not be empty. Other families, parties, and camp programming mean noise and activity. Parents love quiet days; we cannot promise them on peak weeks.

After camp pickup, the whole family can still hit the donut slide and ballistics arena on a future drop-in day.

Too young for camp rapid-fire

Age 3 camp? No — drop-in with parent. Age 4 minimum? Yes — licensing. Stay with toddler during camp? Allowed — but can distract camper. Over 12? Too old for camp. Facility empty on camp weeks? No — plan for activity.
