Background

Embracing mess and chaos are fundamental parts of a child’s development. Most of all, children learn best when they are having fun and getting messy!

Giving your toddler a chance to explore textures, shapes and colours through messy play will start to enhance their world of imagination.

By using the paint brush, for example, they are beginning the process of developing the fine motor skills needed for writing.

We provide a fun, messy environment for you and your child to come to interact and spend time together through messy play. The classes have a variety of messy play activities and craft areas which change every week. The added bonus for you is that you leave the mess behind!

Maggie Cleary and Joanne Goody are mothers of young children. They are also life-long residents of Benfleet and have been friends since childhood.
