OUR PLAY AREAS

Our play areas are specifically designed with children’s happiness, well-being and development in mind. We use open-ended resources throughout that encourage children to be independent and hands on throughout their session. Our staffing team are not only wonderfully kind and engaging, but are also experienced in childcare and early years education. Head over to our Staff Page to find out why we love to work at World Of Play and the skills we each bring to the team. Our aim is to deliver an engaging, unique experience for you and your child through the magic of play.

SENSORY ROOM

SENSORY ROOM

Our Sensory Room is a soothing, low stress environment that has been carefully put together to provide children with a visual, auditory and tactile space for play. A multi-sensory environment can help to control sensory stimulation, while aiding with emotional regulation, particularly in children with SEND. Please note- we hold our After School SEN Group on the 2nd Thursday and every last weekend of the month. This is a smaller, quieter session and a safe space for parents, carers and children to meet like minded people. 

Role-play Area

Explore multiple role-play areas including a Mini Market, House set up and Cafe. Each areas has been created with early years education in mind and is full of resources to inspire imaginative play. Engaging in role-play is a fun way for children to build their social and communication skills, teaching them. co-operation, turn-taking and helping to grow their sense of empathy. At World Of Play, we encourage parents to engage in play alongside their child and as staff, we can often be found getting stuck in too!
