A message from Todd and the Toddle team:
"Thank you everyone for taking part in the Big Toddle! I really enjoy reading all your brilliant stories and looking at your great photos. Please send in more fantastic pictures and share them with your fellow Toddlers."

Hazel says that Alex, Jack, Katie, Amelia Izzy and Tilly all had a great day as they toddled around Southover Gardens in Lewes, East Sussex - here they are:
Kat (mummy of Oscar) reports that "Oscar & Scarlett (aged 2) both enjoyed a great day out at the Bunny Park, Ealing - between them they raised nearly £150.00, some of their money raised will be put to good use at their St Albans Playgroup."
Neil says "Here is a picture of Joseph and his Grandma from the Big Toddle at Temple Newsham, Leeds. He had a great time and will be toddling next year".
Sandra says "We had lots of fun and raised lots of funds doing it - Thank You!" - here she is with toddling team:
And Nattie says "Eleanor, Daisy and Isabella (2 years old) toddled around Braunstone Park Lake on Tuesday 10th July at 10am with their Mummys. The sun was shining and with only a few detours, one to chase the ducks and one where we decided to run back the way we had come, we toddled our way round the lake. We toddled for half a mile (kindly measured by Eleanor's Daddy), we had two juice stops and no-one had to be carried or pushed. We even had enough energy to run the last few steps. After a big lunch we all had to have a very big sleep. So far we have raised over £125 for Barnardos."
Joe is a supervisor at the Croft Play Group - "We took part in the big toddle and the children really did enjoy it. PS - looking forward to taking part next year."
Last year a quarter of a million under 5s toddled their way round the country, raising over £1 million for Barnardo’s (you’re never too young to have a social conscience!).
This year will be even better - throughout June toddlers around the country will be popping on their walking booties to do a half mile sponsored walk. If you’d like to join them visit www.bigtoddle.co.uk to register – you can either join an organised toddle or arrange your own.
Once you’ve registered visit Bmycharity's Big Toddle site to set-up a personal fundraising page to make collecting your sponsorship money a doddle. Then you and your nipper can concentrate on training for the big day (it's child’s play to set-up but email us or call 0845 0580549 if you’d like help).
