Messy play workshop for babies begins in Holyport

The former manager of The Belgian Arms has started up a new messy playtime for babies.

Laura Parkinson has left the pub to run her own business called Splat Messy.

The franchise sees babies 'get as messy as possible' and strengthens their motor and sensory skills.

This week the session at Holyport Scout HQ was themed around bakery products and included flour, cupcakes and chocolate chips.

Laura said: "It's a complete change in career for me as I really wanted to work with people and do something creative.

"I've bought the Berkshire franchise of the business and I'm going to run weekly sessions in Holyport, Windsor and Maidenhead

"The aim is to get as messy as possible and I'm hoping to expand the business into Bracknell and Marlow."

Parents can book a taster session if they are interested in joining with their babies.
