Make and Play Workshops - Book Now!


Make & Play workshops are alternative stay and play sessions for parents and toddlers aimed at encouraging creativity in the early years.

“Every session is an adventure!”

Each week the room is transformed into a magical world where different materials are provided to enable exploration, expression, creativity, and skill development.

These workshops are aimed at children aged 18 months - 4 years (but younger children are also welcome!) A free goodie bag of scrap and a snack are provided at each session. Workshops run on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays for 6 weeks at a cost of £27 (that’s only £4.50 per session!) Places are limited so book early to avoid disappointment.
