Hi Everyone, as many of you know I’m currently in the process of setting up my business over at the cottage (name change pending!).
So I’d just like to share with you my new weekly messy play class starting in September 🧺🤎 Nana’s Cupboard — Messy Play Curiosity Cabin- Carlisle 🍁
Come and step inside Nana’s Cupboard, where little hands are encouraged to explore, squish, splash, scoop, sprinkle… and get wonderfully messy! 🥣💦🌿
Inspired by the simple joys of childhood and those wonderful treasures you might once have discovered tucked away in Nana’s kitchen cupboards, our weekly messy play sessions are created for little explorers aged 1 year upwards.
Each week, there’s a new invitation to explore…
✨ Squishy sensory textures
🥣 Messy mixtures to scoop, pour and stir
💦 Splashy water play
🌿 Natural treasures to discover
🎨 Creative mark-making
👐 Hands-on, child-led exploration
There’s no right or wrong way to play at Nana’s Cupboard. Little ones can follow their curiosity, investigate at their own pace and discover through their senses.
Because sometimes the very best childhood moments are the messy ones…
Flour-covered little hands.
Fingers squishing through something wonderfully gooey.
A splash of water that turns into a fit of giggles.
The excitement of discovering something completely new. 🥰
And while the little ones explore, there’s time for grown-ups to slow down too — to play, connect, chat and make those precious memories together.
At Curiosity Cottage, we believe childhood doesn’t need to be complicated. Sometimes it’s the simple, sensory, slightly messy moments that become the memories we treasure most. 🤎
🌿 Nana’s Cupboard is for 1 year+
🧺 Sensory & Messy Play
🎨 Creative Exploration
👐 Child-Led Play
🌿 Indoor & Outdoor Adventures
Come and make a mess… Nana won’t mind!🥣🤎
🍂 Our Autumn Term is now available to book. 🍂

A huge thank you to BEE UNIQUE for inviting me back to host another wonderful session at Petteril Bank Community Hall! 🐝✨
We had a fantastic messy time exploring our superhero and princess-themed sensory trays!
The children loved discovering new textures, revisiting their favourite trays again and again, and spending time playing alongside their friends.
Thank you to all the families who came along.It was such a fun-filled session, and I can't wait to come back again for our seaside special in August. 💙👑🦸♀️🦸♂️
💚 What a fantastic time we had at Daisy Lane again today! 💚
It was lovely to see so many familiar faces, as well as lots of new ones joining us. There's nothing more exciting than seeing the smiles and expressions of children experiencing something new for the very first time! ✨
Today's biggest hit was definitely “Bing's Carrot Ice Creams”🥕🍦—they went down an absolute treat!
We also had the pleasure of TruContent popping along to capture all the fun, and we can't wait to see the results! 📸
A huge thank you to everyone who came along and made today's session so special. We hope you had as much fun as we did, we have another session at Daisy Lane Carlisle on 13th August if you can join us we’d love to see you there! see you all again soon! 🌈
