Messy Monsters

Parent/Carers and toddler groups are a lifeline to many parents and carers as they provide a welcoming and supportive environment during the week. Because of this, toddler groups can have a great impact on their lives, and the lives of the children who attend.

Children naturally make friends through joining in group activities such as the craft table, story and song times. Often children can be accompanied by someone other than a parent; this could be a friend of the family, a childminder, a grandparent or other relative.  The great part about Messy Monsters, is that parents, carers, and team members all join in with the activities and chat with each other in a friendly, safe, and warm environment.  Jayne, our Group leader says.

People come along for different reasons.  For some it is to help their child mix with other children, while for others it is because they are hoping to meet new people. Others will be there to prevent isolation and to gain support in the responsibility of parenting.

So come and join our playgroup on Wednesdays 9am to 10:30am for activities and singing, for only £1.
