MESSY PLAY TRAYS

All come with a 30x20 foil tray and a table cloth to put it on the floor. These trays are completely disposable for ‘no mess’ messy fun (well as non messy as we can get it for you).

The trays come with all you need to set up a beautiful themed tray as home with little keepsakes for your little ones and you. There are some items you will need to make and some have optional ingredients you can add should you wish. 

EDUCATIONAL

Messy play is a fantastic way to let your little one explore textures, improve dexterity and build confidence with things that are new. The trays have colours and items that will appeal to babies. Some items require interaction from you and you’ll always get the most out of your trays if you participate with your baby (blow the bubbles, stick the items in the playdough, put the spaghetti on your arm or theirs….) 

DON’T RUSH… allow a good 30mins to an hour for your play. It will take most babies a while to adjust and want to start exploring what is in front of them.

ALLERGENS

All trays are ‘taste safe’ and include no toxins. The 14 main allergens have been avoided. If your child has additional allergies please check ingredients on the packaging before using. If unsure feel free to message Libby prior to purchase. 

Some trays contain sugar, there are alternatives you can use if preferred and you can message us if this concerns you.

HEALTH & SAFETY

The trays and their content are to be used under close adult supervision and your child should never be left alone with the trays. Some items are not intended for consumption and can present a choking risk.
