Messy play invites young children to explore their senses through hands-on interaction with various materials in a fun and open-ended environment. This activity encourages creativity and sensory development, making it perfect for toddlers and their parents to enjoy quality time together.
What to Expect
Children will dive into sensory experiences that stimulate touch, sight, and smell. The sessions focus on the process of play rather than any finished product, allowing kids to experiment freely. Parents are encouraged to participate and get messy alongside their children, fostering bonding and shared discovery.
