Active toddler

I have a 16 mth active toddler. He loves walking around, and only allows us to hold his hands in carpark, or dangerous place. Otherwise, he will shake off our hand. In classes, he's the only one who can't sit still to listen, and went around to explore things he's interested. Are these normal at this phase?

Watch whether he has eyes contact and ask teacher whether he peeps while they are teaching. Some kids cannot sit but still watch the teacher teaching from far. It is good to teach early that always follow parents and he cannot running around while go out together. Give a stern voice to him when he let go your hands. I am Mother of 3 and I hope this helps. My eldest one also cannot sit still since young and he has now social behaviours issues and under therapy. I suggest see whether he learn or not. My Son go 3 hours school is like playing the door, play the toys, no interaction at all in the class. I withdraw from the school and At the end the childcare help a little bit of his condition.
