Tips & Advice
- Book your Elf School and Christmas Grotto experience in advance, especially for the extended party dates on December 23rd and 24th, as these popular sessions fill up quickly.
- Arrive a little early to allow your children to explore the magically decorated soft play area before their Elf School session begins.
- Consider booking the SEND session if your child thrives in a calmer environment, as these sessions are designed with reduced capacity and a more relaxed pace.
- The 'Make your own themed hot chocolate' activity is a take-home treat, so bring a suitable container if you wish to keep it pristine for Christmas Eve.
- While the main event is Elf School, the venue is an award-winning indoor play centre, so factor in extra time for children to enjoy the soft play facilities before or after their scheduled activity.
