Read, Play, Create – Where Stories Spark Sensory Adventures
Messy, magical, and made for learning – messy & sensory play classes for babies, toddlers, and pre-schoolers across Bromsgrove, Redditch, Rubery, Belbroughton, Rowney Green, and surrounding areas.
At Read, Play, Create, we turn beloved books into hands-on sensory adventures filled with messy play, storytelling, and child-led learning. Rooted in early language and communication development, our sessions are designed to support growing minds while sparking joy and creativity.
We welcome children aged 6 months to 7 years with no fixed age brackets – making our classes ideal for siblings, friends or mixed-age groups to play, explore and learn together.
What Makes Us Different
Messy & Sensory Play at the Heart
From squelchy gloop to themed sensory trays, our messy play activities are designed to excite the senses, develop fine motor skills, and encourage independent exploration.
Books Brought to Life
Each class starts with a beautiful book and unfolds into themed sensory stations, interactive storytelling, and playful prompts that invite children into the story world.
🗣 Language & Communication Focus
We carefully choose key vocabulary, use repetitive phrases and songs, and encourage early conversation skills — supporting your child’s journey from babbling to confident talking.
Builds Fine Motor Skills
Scooping, pouring, threading, mark-making and more — every activity strengthens little hands and builds coordination in fun, practical ways.
Inclusive for All Ages
Our sessions are carefully planned to engage children at a range of developmental stages. Whether your child is 6 months or 7 years, they’ll find something to enjoy and learn from — perfect for sibling bonding or playdates with friends.
