All pop-up sessions are aimed at children aged 6mo–5 years. Under 6 months attends free. We are also able to cater to older children as we know sensory play doesn’t have an age limit!
We use a variety of food-based sensory materials throughout our experiences. While these materials are selected with young children in mind, we do not recommend mouthing sensory materials for babies under 6 months. Babies under 6months are free with a sibling and welcome to attend, but families are to keep in mind there are materials used that are not recommended for mouthing.

Our sensory play invitations are made using taste-safe ingredients. However, taste-safe does not mean intended for consumption. Our activities are designed for sensory exploration, not eating.

Bookings are generally non-refundable. However, if you need to cancel or can no longer make it, please provide at least 24 hours notice, and I’ll be happy to offer a credit for your session.

A parent or carer must supervise their child for the entire session. Messy Kids Club is a parent/carer-supervised experience, and you are responsible for supervising your child at all times while they explore and play.

If your little one is unwell, please follow our cancellation policy and keep them home from the session.
We know it can be disappointing to miss out, but our sessions are attended by babies and young children, including some who may be more vulnerable to illness. Keeping sick children home helps protect our little community and reduces the spread of sickness.

Our sessions still run with light rain, although a session may be cancelled or rescheduled depending on weather conditions. In this case, you will receive a credit for the next session or a refund. We will always communicate via email or text.

We use a variety of food-based ingredients in our sensory play experiences. While we do not intentionally use dairy, eggs, or nuts, we cannot guarantee that our activities are completely allergen-free, as some ingredients may carry a “may contain” warning from the manufacturer.
If your child has any allergies or dietary concerns, please let us know before your session so we can discuss whether our activities are suitable for them.
-
Messy clothes are a must! Please dress your child in clothing you’re happy for them to explore, create and get messy in. For warmer days, we recommend sun-safe clothing, a hat and sunscreen, as our sessions take place outdoors.On rainy days, we recommend a raincoat and gumboots.

Bookings can be made online. We recommend booking at least one day prior to a session so I can prepare materials and setups accordingly.
