What age do you consider toddler?

Hi ladies. DS turned 1 last month and I wasn't sure which forum to put him in if I had questions-babies or toddlers? Thanks!

Hmmm good question. I consider toddler ages 1-3. I'm not sure that's the "offical" rule, but that's kinda how I SEE IT. tHEY TODDLE WHEN THEY BEGIN TO WALK (sorry hit cap locks)

from the time they start walking until they turn three, I would classify as toddlers......but with the whole preschool movement starting now at two, it is kind of murky waters.....I am sure you could post your questions in either forum and they would get answered.....

I agree, with the ladies above. Once they start walking until age 3 i consider them toddlers.

i agree also with the ladies above :)

i also agree with from walking to about 3. then preschool age starts at 3-4.

that's a good question.. I still think of one year old's as babies..

ha. kalihi, got ya beat. I still think of our 2 year old (he'll be two in one month) as a baby. LOL

I think when we were growing up, they were toddlers from 2-4, but with the "rush em up and out" more like 12 months until 2 1/2-3. I think if their clothes have a "t" in them, (ie: 2T, 3T, or 4T) they're toddlers. :-) But I can't look at Bri and think toddler even though he's only about to be 3. He's just so tall, he doesn't LOOK like a toddler.

BUT Pat on the other hand, he's our little short cake. He still wears 12 months in most things. The ONLY reason he has to have 2 in his shirts are his belly, and since he's losing it, and thinning out, he fitting back into his 12 months shirts. So he's a "baby" to me, looking at him .

I honestly, have no clue, though.
