Happy Halloween Pandemic Style: Trick or Treat that'll keep Boris and his besties happy
October 19, 2020Mask wearing this October 31st has a whole different meaning than it did last year. A bobbed apple a day *should* keep the doctor away, but maybe not in 2020- with new official restrictions and common sense dictating that parties, trick or treating, and the usual halloween celebrations are off the table, here's some ideas of how to keep the kiddos entertained.
TL;DR
Brilliant indoor soft play with a beautiful imaginative play village. Affordable entry prices and decent range of child and grown up friendly food. Covid considerations, safety, and cleanliness are excellent. Car park off of main road with plenty of spaces; two spotless toilets inside, with baby change facilities and toddler toilet seat and step in the larger accessible one. Soft play climbing area and imaginative play themed rooms for children, and a padded, enclosed play area with mini black lit sensory rooms for babies and toddlers.
Softplay. Both a blessing and curse to parents of small children. While they are a savior to those of us living on this soggy British island, they are more often than not sweaty vinyl padded altars to D&V.
If you have more than one small (but mobile) charge to wrangle, then size matters. You want the place not so small as to be boring, but also not so cavernous that you spend the entire time with your heart in your mouth, scanning the room for your missing child whilst faux-cheerfully screaming: 'stay together, STAY TOGETHER'.
