Our school starter sessions have finished now and I hope you enjoyed them! πŸ’›

It was so lovely seeing how the older children play and interact with each other. They certainly got stuck in and at times it got very messy! 🀎

If you have any feedback, comments or suggestions for next year please do let us know as we would love these to be a regular thing! πŸ’œ

And that's a wrap from me and my little team!! πŸ’œ

What a gorgeous last day of play - so many lovely little ones and such lovely comments and kind messages πŸ’œ

I want to say a HUGE thank-you to everyone who has ever come to one of our sessions, hired one of our sets, booked us for a party or even just liked our posts!

Three years ago I started this little businesses with a one year old in tow and I'm so happy of the journey we've been on. To get through a pandemic and add a new baby to the team, it's not been an easy ride but I have loved running play sessions for you and I have met some amazing people.

Thank-you for being a part of the Playful Penguins journey so far. For looking after my boys during sessions, and never making me feel judged for bringing them along when one was kicking off or one was left abandoned in the pram! You've all been so supportive and I can't thank-you enough.

I am SO happy to say that I will be leaving you in the capable hands of Rachel who will continue to run play sessions for you, so keep an eye out for updates over the next few days!

Hopefully I will see you at one of her sessions soon - please continue to support us and keep the muddy play fun going!

As next week is my last week of running play sessions, I'd love to set out all your little one's favourite invitations to play!

So let me know in the comments which is your little one's favourite play activity?

It can be anything we've done in the past - I think I know the most popular ones but would love to hear it from you!

It would be lovely to see as many of you as possible tomorrow so please do come along to say goodbye!
