Food glorious food – a gentle introduction to messy play for babies.

Our lovely franchisee Amanda in Harrogate and Craven is leading the way with messy play sessions for teeny tiny monkeys by introducing weaning workshops for babies!

Usually babies and toddlers start our messy play classes at 6 months old (that’s when we are super confident they are going to stay super safe while exploring our fantastic sensory stations) but messy monkeys in Harrogate, Skipton, Ilkley and Long Preston are able to start messy play early with Amanda’s fantastic weaning workshops for younger babies!

This gentle approach to messy play introduces babies to weaning and encourages a baby led approach to starting solid food.  In Harrogate, Skipton, Ilkley and Long Preston Amanda will be running a 4 week ‘weaning workshop’ with a focus on messy play and it’s benefits for introducing solid food to babies.

Babies will be introduced to different textures (some wet and sloppy, others hard and dry), colours (to encourage a relaxed approach to new visual sensory experiences) and temperatures (for babies who’ve always had room temperature milk this can be an interesting experience!)    Babies will be able to explore this messy play in a relaxed environment alongside their trusted carer using hands and feet as well as a variety of messy tools relevant to the weaning process.

If you are looking for super safe, messy play for babies in Harrogate, Skipton, Ilkley or Long Preston don’t hesitate to contact Amanda who will be delighted to help you on your weaning journey (she’ll also clean up all the mess – you’re going to love her!)
