Hi, You're receiving this email because {name} thinks the Messy Magpies - Messy play sessions for under 5's article would interest you. Messy Magpies runs messy play sessions for kids under 5 years old.

We make sure all their senses are involved in messy play activities from playing with gloop and slime to foam, popcorn and so much more.

Messy play is an essential part of a child's development, so let your kids create, explore and learn. Best of all we do the tidying up!

We encourage Mums, Dads and caregivers to take part and have fun with their kids, whilst not stressing about the messy spills they would usually have at home!


Messy Magpies - Kids messy play sessions


Our Messy Magpies sessions are now held in 2 locations around Auckland: 
 
  • Glendowie Community Centre at 83 Crossfield Road, Glendowie
 
  • Howick Sea Scouts Hall at 10 Gibraltar Rd, Howick

Each session costs $20 and you can either sign up for the whole term or just come along to the sessions you want to.

We also offer Early Bird discounts if you pay in advance and discounted sibling fees.

Please note that parents and caregivers are required to accompany and supervise their children during each session.

Why messy play?

Babies and young children learn and develop through play, but especially through unstructured, exploratory play. This allows them to make their own discoveries using their senses, curiosity and knowledge.

Messy play fosters your child's curiosity, imagination and experimentation and practices good concentration skills.

Because messy play and sensory play are all about exploring, there's no right or wrong way. This type of creative play gives kids endless ways to develop and learn.

Young children rely on sensory input to learn about their environment, and research suggests that sensory play helps build neural connections that support their thought, learning and creativity.

The sensory experience of messy play enables them to understand how things feel, smell and taste and it also supports their physical development.

Messy Magpies kids parties

Messy magpies now offers birthday party packages. They’re lots of fun and a great way to keep your little guests entertained.

Our party packages include 7 - 10 messy sensory play stations and a present for the birthday child.

You choose the theme or we can choose the theme for you, and we’ll make up the play stations to suit. We will also set up all the messy play stations and clean up after.

The cost of our party packages is $220 for 1 hour of immersive play for 12 kids. Extra costs apply for additional kids.
