I like the breakdown @Arden did.

You can also put ages in brackets so that people will know for sure. </p> <p>I'm excited for a new board since DD is going to be 3 before I know it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-name-of-the-next-stage-after-baby-and-toddler#post-358391 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 12:56:31 +0000 Arden 358391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think - </p> <p>0-1: Infant/Baby<br /> 1-3: Toddler<br /> 3-6: Early Childhood<br /> 7-9: School-Aged<br /> 10-12: Pre-Teen<br /> 13-17: Teen </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-name-of-the-next-stage-after-baby-and-toddler#post-358350 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 12:45:36 +0000 brownie 358350@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Everything I have taught (crossfit, gymnastics, dance) calls it preschool level for the 3-5 age group. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-name-of-the-next-stage-after-baby-and-toddler#post-358340 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 12:41:04 +0000 photojane 358340@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i've always seen/heard it as @Honeybee mentioned! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-name-of-the-next-stage-after-baby-and-toddler#post-358335 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 12:37:28 +0000 Mrs. Pen 358335@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@alayaya: I like early childhood</p> <p>I agree that preschooler sounds more like it relates to schooling rather than age.
