Let your child learn through MESS!
Join in the fun for Term 2 of Little Messy Learners hosted in Let’s Plays fabulous educational venue—Canberra’s most exciting hands-on program for babies to 5-year-olds!
Designed by early years educators, these classes combine messy play, sensory exploration, and early writing skills in a fun and supportive environment. We follow a unique mark-making programme that introduces children to pre-writing skills through play, helping them develop the strength, coordination and confidence they’ll need for school—without ever picking up a worksheet!
✏️ What to Expect Each Week:
Messy play stations (think rainbow spaghetti, slime, foam, and more!)
Sensory trays and mark-making activities
Fine motor development games
Role play, small world play & art
Warm, welcoming classes where parents and children learn and explore together.
We focus on a different early writing "mark" each week—like straight lines, zig zags, curves and circles—through themed play that supports children’s development at every age and stage.
