Easiest after party tidyup ever

Becky and her daughter arrived promptly, set up the x4 play areas that we asked for efficiently. All the items were clean and well presented. The kids had an amazing play time and party. At the end of the party they came and cleared away quickly and with no fuss. It was the easiest clean up after a party ever. Thank you Becky and your pop up party crew.

Fantastic experience for birthday party

Becky (and her family of helpers) were absolutely amazing start to finish for my daughter's 2nd birthday party. She was extremely helpful in narrowing down my choice of playzones that fit with my daughter's interests, prompt on both set up and take down, as well as really friendly and professional. This took all the stress out of planning a party for a toddler.

My daughter absolutely loved the party and the set up was perfect. Thank you! I'd definitely recommend and use her services again.

You can't go wrong

I don't know what to say and I'm not sure what I was expecting. I had a kids party with kids from 2-8 years old and judging by the parents faces its the first time in a long time the there kids have not been clung to them at a party. The kids had an amazing time and I can see hiring them more and more in the future

Brilliant party for a 5 year old

Becky did an amazing job setting up four play areas for our 5 year old’s party. The set up and clear up were really quick and efficient, and took so much of the stress out of the morning. There were loads of lovely toys in each area and the kids loved playing with them. Becky was great to deal with during booking and responded really quickly to emails. Thanks so much!

We absolutely loved the Pop Up Play…

We absolutely loved the Pop Up Play Village for our son's 3rd birthday! Becky did an amazing job setting everything up, and she even included the art studio for free. She was also really responsive and helpful in planning everything, which made everything so much easier. Our son and his friends had the best time playing at the different play areas and all the parents were raving about how lovely it all was. It was a fabulous birthday party! I would highly recommend this!! It's really the perfect way to celebrate a child's birthday and, with so many different play areas, there's something for everyone to enjoy.

Becky set up the hour before our party and just cracked on, no fuss, didn’t get in the way, and had everything ready and beautifully laid out. The kids loved all the activities and parents commented what a great idea it was for a birthday party. Tidy up was super easy and we didn’t have to do anything! Would highly recommend

Wonderful for birthday parties

Our 4 year old was so happy with his party from Pop Up Play Village! Becky arrived promptly and set up some lovely play stations - the children really engaged with them and particularly loved the post office! It was so helpful having the clean up at the end as well. It really took the stress out of having a kids party at home! Thank you so much!

Great 4th birthday party

My daughter loved her pop up play village birthday party for her 4th birthday! It went down so well with all the kids and the parents were impressed with what a good party it was too, and a nice change from a bouncy castle! Becky was lovely and set everything up really nicely, easy to communicate with in the run up to the party too. Would definitely recommend!

A wonderful enhancement to our curiculum

Pop-Up Play is a wonderful resource to enhance our curriculum and promote oracy, creativity, collaboration and well-being across the school. Becky's planning is detailed, fool-proof and easy to use and apply in different contexts. She has offered us ongoing help and support in implementing Pop-Up Play and in embedding it within our planning and practice.

Waste of money

My son and I attended the pop up play village today near Horsham. I was disappointed as soon as we arrived. We have been to a lot of free playgroups run by local churches and there were less toys/ activities at the play village. There were just a few dolls and tea sets on the floor, no construction area or sit on vehicles as advertised (which my son would have loved). There was no tea and coffee for parents as advertised either. For £9 it really felt like such a con. Most £2 playgroups are better than this.

Construction area loved by everyone!!

They set up a pretend play station in Bournemouth for my son’s birthday and every kid played!!! Both the young toddlers and the older kids played! I was pleasantly surprised!
Definitely recommend them!
We only used the construction area but it had so many things!!!!!

Oxfordshire review. Nothing more (actually less) than a £2 baby toddler group

This is only a review for the Oxfordshire group.

Firstly like others have said, it wasn’t much more than what a normal £2 baby toddler play group would give you. And actually the £2 play sessions for this area actually offers more than the pop up play village. I was expecting something different to a baby toddler group at that sort of price.

On top of this, we arrived only with the person in charge to totally ignore us and not even try and welcome us…..there were only about 5-6 families in a decent large space. Enough to avoid someone if needed.

We arrived 5mins late with another family. The person in charge went straight to them and had a chat, totally ignoring us.

I went up to the table they were chatting at hoping she’d make conversation but nothing. Ten minutes in, I thought she was walking over to say hi, only for her to walk straight past me to the mums behind me….I never felt more unwelcomed in my life!

I don’t know if it’s because we were an Asian family and the rest were white English. The person in charge at one point even gave me eye contact but nothing. It was a very clicky group I’m afraid. Which happens I understand but at least try and pretend to be welcoming. I felt so uncomfortable, we left after 10minutes.

Great birthday party

This was a great activity for my son's 4th birthday party. The children all loved the building blocks and wheelbarrows and made a massive tower together. Katie was very friendly and efficient and everyone had a lovely time.

Excellent experience at Pop Up Play North Plymouth, Saltash & Tavistock

I regularly take my daughter to Pop Up Play sessions in Plymouth, run by the lovely Jackie. We love the sessions - my daughter enjoys exploring all the areas and especially loves the arts and crafts section - Jackie always provides a fantastic range of resources for the children to engage with. The sessions are brilliant and offer a wide variety of stimulation for imaginative play.

So much fun!

As a private nanny I am always looking for fun and exciting things to do with my charges.
I came across the pop up village in Chester and decided to give it a try.
WOW just WOW! What a lovely welcoming fun session this is! My little charge was enthralled in dressing up and let’s pretend, there’s so much to see, do and explore and it kept us both engaged in activities and having the best time!
This has firmly become our favourite class!
