Small on purpose
Booked sittings, not a Saturday crush. You can actually hear your own child. That helps families who’ve come a bit further, and anyone local popping in.
We open Sunday 30th August. Come and say hello on Facebook for the latest.
Bishop Auckland · County Durham

We don't put an age limit on children, as they all develop differently. If your child still loves role play, please bring them along. SEN friendly, with sensory play.
Booking a sitting is advisable. Walk-ins are welcome, but not guaranteed.

Weekdays
Tuesday to Friday
Weekends
Saturday and Sunday
Booked sittings, not a Saturday crush. You can actually hear your own child. That helps families who’ve come a bit further, and anyone local popping in.
A submarine, a sand pit, a volcano with a cave, a castle tea party, a red barn, and a dark room of stars. These rooms are why you come, not a climbing frame with a café stuck on the side.
We’re SEN friendly, with sensory play in ordinary sittings. If a quieter sitting would help, say so when you book or drop us a message.
A town of little worlds
Six handmade rooms, not a plastic frame. Wander from one little world to the next.

Stop 1 · First stop
A submarine with portholes, a painted reef, and sea creatures waiting just beyond the glass.

Stop 2 · Along the shore
A large sand pit and a boat. Shoes off, socks on, hands in.

Stop 3 · Through the cave
A painted volcano, a cave tunnel, and a dinosaur or two keeping watch.

Stop 4 · Over the drawbridge
Turrets, arched doorways, and a tea party table ready for whoever is ruling today.

Stop 5 · Down the lane
A red barn with white trim. The kind of farm a three-year-old would draw, then walk into.

Stop 6 · Among the stars
A darker room of fibre optics, projected stars, a light-up rocket and tactile wall panels.
