Our parties are great for a mixed age range of children as well as for children of the same age. What is so great about role play is that children of different ages access and explore the play areas at their own level of learning and in their own way. Children's imaginations lead the way!

Our packages include:
▪ Bespoke Pop Up Play Village for your child.
▪ Invite up to 30 children and their families.
▪ Play inside or outside or a mixture of both.
▪ Pop Up Play Village Invitations.
▪ Your Pop Up Play Village host will set up and clean up the village.

To find out more about our party packages, contact your local Pop Up Play Village franchise owner today or direct message this page!

Our village has been designed with siblings in mind! Here's a blog that our franchisor Becky has written all about it:

The idea of Pop Up Play Village came to me when I was looking for somewhere to take my children to and I couldn’t find anything suitable. At the time, my son was two and my daughter was a couple of months old. I was looking for a class where they would both benefit, learn and have fun in a safe environment where I could keep my eyes on both of them. I couldn’t find anything that offered this at the time. There were many classes specifically for babies or toddlers but nothing that suited them both. I remember saying to my husband ‘Why isn’t there a role play village that just pops up at local venues?’ That was when the Pop Up Play Village seed was planted in my head and our journey began!

As I had young children at the time, I knew it was paramount that the Pop Up Play Village design needed to be open plan so that our customers would be able to see their children all of the time no matter where they were in the village creating a relaxing and safe environment for everyone. Also, as a result of having an open plan design, it allows children to freely move from one play area to another taking resources with them enabling them to truly let their imaginations run wild. With my teacher hat on, this is an amazing way to encourage creative thinking in a child led environment.

One of the aspects of Pop Up Play Village that I love is that the design and the way that it has been created is great for siblings to come to play sessions together. When my children were little, before they went off to school, they often came to work with me. They got so much out of attending the play sessions and seeing them having quality time to play together was so very special. I love that our classes are great for children of different ages and that the way in which the village is set up allows children to have high quality role play experiences in a safe environment where their grown ups can see them at all times. I definitely have my children to thank for the inspiration for the design of Pop Up Play Village!

Baby Loss Awareness Week ‘wave of light’

14/10/2024

Here at Pop Up Play Village, we have designed the village so that it supports children's learning and development in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum. One of the aspects of the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum are the Characteristics of Effective Learning. These describe behaviours that children use in order to learn.

The characteristics are split into three categories:

Playing and Exploring
Active Learning
Creative and Critical Thinking

The way Pop Up Play Village has been designed as an open plan village with child led learning right at the heart of what we do supports all three of these Characteristics of Effective Learning. Children are in the driving seat in their learning and development in our village which is the best way to learn.

Calling all Heads, Teachers, TAs, Nursery and Preschool Staff, PTA members ⬇️⬇️⬇️

We can set up our role play village in your nursery, pre-school or primary school to offer your children the chance to explore and play in their own unique village.

Choose from a variety of different role play areas to suit your setting. We can theme our village to meet the requirements of a class topic, school value or celebration.

We also have brand new 5 week programmes which focuses on key areas of learning:

- Communication and Language
- Problem Solving
- Personal, Social and Emotional Development
- Writing for a Purpose

In these sessions, we set up our role play village for the children to learn through play with the focus being on developing a specific area of learning as well as the benefits of our village being cross curricular too.

Each week we will build on what we have been learning the previous week so that by the end of the 5 week programme, the children have had a high quality learning experience purely through play.

Do send us a message if you would be interested in more information for your setting or your child's school.

Wednesday's Role Play At Home ~ Witches Brewing Station 🧪 🧙 As we love imaginative play so much, we will be sharing some fun ideas of how you can role play with your children at home. This station is so easy to set up, just use your dining table and include the following: ~ Cauldrons or bowls ~ Spatula for stirring ~ bug or small animal toys ~ role play food ~ eyeballs (mine are from home bargains) you could use ping pong balls ~ Duplo or Lego pieces Anything from around the house. Just be sure to name it something that is a little bit spooky, to really get your child’s imagination running wild 🫶🏻

Does your child learn the same way as other children? This is a question that more and more parents are asking themselves. When most of us were younger, it was very much one way fits all. Parents are now questioning more about the alternative ways that their child can learn and seeking new opportunities for this. In order for children to thrive, learn and develop their basic skills they need to be exposed to a number of learning environments. At Pop Up Play Village we pride ourselves on our values and Fuelling Children’s Imagination is up there at the top. Our village is designed to encourage children to explore on their own terms in a safe environment, in turn allowing them to create their own way to learn. #popupplayvillage #childrensfranchise #kidsroleplay #childrensroleplayvillage #mobileroleplayvillage #childrensactivities #childrensroleplay #learnthroughplay #learningthroughplay #childledplay #fuellingimagination #imaginativeplay

Did you know that our role play village is suitable for children aged 0-8 years old ❤️ Pop Up Play Village has been designed with siblings in mind, to ensure that children of all ages can explore, create and engage in imaginative play. Keep both children happy whether they are 1yrs old and 3yrs old or 6months old and 4yrs old, we can guarantee you that they will have the best time. #siblinglove #siblings #childrensclassesuk #mobileroleplayvillage #childrensroleplayvillage #kidsroleplay #childrensactivities #roleplayvillage #childrensroleplay #popupplayvillage

This Potion Making activity is such a hit every single year and it’s so easy to do at home, here’s what you’ll need 🧙‍♀️ - White Vinegar - Bi Carbonate of Soda - Teaspoon - Bowl (I ordered mini cauldrons and pumpkins from Amazon) Spoon 2 teaspoons of bicarb (magic fair dust) into a bowl and add a teaspoon of white vinegar (Bug Juice).

Our Story!

Pop Up Play Village is a fun, inspirational place for children from birth to around 8 years old. It is a portable play village that features a supermarket, hospital, baby nursery, vets, construction site, Usborne library and café! On our event days, we also feature an art studio where children can get creative by choosing a craft to decorate and take home.

Children can feed, dress and look after the babies in the nursery. They can be a waiter or order food from the menu at the cafe. At the hospital, they can dress up as a doctor or nurse or be a patient who needs to get better! At the vets, they can bring their poorly pets in or dress up and be a vet themselves! In the supermarket, they can shop, use price lists and pay for food. At the Art Studio, children can get creative! They can choose from a variety of different options and make something to take home and cherish!

For grown-ups, Pop Up Play Village has a cafe selling hot, cold drinks and snacks.

Pop Up Play Village has predefined play sessions on our event days. This allows us to limit the number of children attending each session which ensures a quality play experience for all. At the end of each play session, Pop up Play Village is tidied so that it is ready for the next group of explorers! Play sessions must be pre-booked in advance.
