We are thrilled to introduce you to our weekly award winning classes, parties and our carefully procured, handmade Messy Play sensory kits.

Our classes are a dedicated space for parents, caregivers, and anyone who believes in the transformative power of unstructured, messy and sensory play experiences for children.

At Messy Play, we understand that learning doesn’t always happen in a neat and orderly fashion. Children thrive when they can explore, experiment and discover through their senses and that’s exactly what our classes are all about.

We’re here to inspire and guide you on a messy, colourful and sometimes chaotic journey that is both educational and incredibly fun!
