My 2-year-old daughter, Ivy, is not the type of child that sits still and plays with quiet activities. Not at all. I like to describe her as an ‘outdoor child’, who’s always running and jumping around – which you might have gathered if you’ve seen any of my other soft play reviews! Given that my child needs ways to burn off energy that aren’t hanging off various parts of furniture, I’m often looking for places to go to do just that. I realise soft play isn’t for everyone, but for me, it can be a godsend – just letting her run around and climb whatever she wants! We’re a big fan of stay and play sessions for under 5’s at the moment, so went to visit MK Springers for their Waddler to Toddlers session to run around on the gymnastics equipment and soft play!
MK Springers Waddler to Toddler sessions is very similar to the Arabian School of Gymnastics stay and play sessions that we’ve previously been to – where there’s gymnastics equipment you can play on as well as soft play.
The sessions are around an hour and a half/ hour and 45 minutes long – although you don’t need to stay for the whole time, it’s very informal.
Some of the gymnastics equipment around includes these long trampolines, which is easily Ivy’s favourite reason for coming here. Jumping is her current favourite activity, and having a whole lane to run and jump on – perfect when you’re a toddler!
There’s also equipment like balance beams, bars, and crash mats to jump onto!
Ivy’s a big fan of the soft play wherever we go, and here’s no different. There are lots of bits to climb on, climb through, jump off of, jump on – it’s perfect for Ivy. She had great fun climbing up everything, and hiding in tunnels.
We really like the Waddler to Toddler sessions and have been a few times now. Tickets for an adult and a child are only £5, so you get to spend quite a long time there for the money you spend in my opinion. Ivy absolutely loves them as she can crash around and jump to her heart’s content – it’s a great way to tire her out!
