That’s completely okay. Many children take a little time to feel comfortable in a new environment. Our facilitators create warm, welcoming sessions where children are encouraged to join in at their own pace. The focus is on building confidence through positive play experiences, never pressure or competition.
Where possible, sessions will move to an indoor venue so that children can continue enjoying Play Parks regardless of the weather.
Not at all. Play Parks is designed for every child, regardless of their confidence or ability. The programme focuses on helping children develop movement skills, confidence and a love of being active through fun, play-based activities, not competition or sporting performance.
We keep our sessions small enough for every child to receive individual attention while still enjoying the social benefits of playing in a group. Most sessions accommodate around 20–30 children, supported by trained facilitators to ensure a safe, engaging and inclusive experience for everyone.

"Our daughter was nervous at first, but after just a few weeks she couldn't wait for Play Parks every Wednesday. We've noticed such a difference in her confidence, and she talks about the friends she's made all week."
