What it’s like

Baby massage, music and gentle sensory classes for newborns up to five year olds, plus private birthday parties.

This is a class-based sensory setup for babies and small children rather than a soft play you turn up to on a whim. Little Sparks is the gentle end, aimed at bonding and early sensory discovery with newborns. Spark Shakers picks up the pace a bit for 6 to 13 month olds who are starting to move and interact, and Spark Movers is the toddler version, built around confidence and coordination for 8 to 36 month olds who are properly on the go. There's baby massage too, and Stay and Play sessions that are more free flowing if structured classes aren't your thing that day.

The age range across the whole offer runs from newborn to five, so it shifts with your child rather than expecting a five-year-old to sit through the same session as a six-month-old. That's the sensible bit of the design: you're not paying for one generic toddler class and hoping it lands.

Birthday parties are the other strand, and they're private sessions rather than shared party rooms. A Mini Experience is 30 minutes for £65, which is a decent taster if you've got a one-year-old who won't last much longer than that anyway. The Classic Party stretches to an hour for £110, and the Signature Party goes to two hours for £180, tailored to your theme. Two hours is a proper stretch for the under-fives crowd, so that one's really for the parents who want to make a full afternoon of it rather than the toddlers themselves.

Need to know

Best for
Newborn to 5, with classes split by age and stage
Parties
Private birthday party sessions from £65-£180 tailored to your theme and venue
  • Classes are split by age and stage, so check which one suits your child's development rather than just their birthday
  • The two-hour Signature Party is a big stretch for under-fives, more of a treat for the grown-ups organising it
  • Stay and Play is the option if you want something less structured than the named classes

Plan your visit

What ages are the classes for?

Newborn up to five, split across different sessions so a six-month-old and a three-year-old aren't doing the same thing.

How much do the birthday parties cost?

£65 for a 30 minute Mini Experience, £110 for the hour-long Classic Party, and £180 if you want the full two-hour Signature Party.

Are the birthday parties shared with other families?

No, they're private sessions tailored to your theme rather than a shared party room.

What actually happens in a session?

It depends which one you book: baby massage and gentle bonding classes for newborns, movement-based Spark Shakers and Spark Movers for babies and toddlers who are mobile, or a free flowing Stay and Play if you'd rather not follow a structured class.
