playareas for babies??

[glasgowmandy]

anyone know anywhere decent that you can take babies too? mines 7 months, i havnt been to any of the play areas. ie monkey buisness, big adventure, im not sure if they have things for lttle ones to play with, anyone know any where good? x

What area are you in?

Around here (Cardiff area) there are several cafe type places with play areas for small children and a lot of the bigger soft play places have baby areas too.

uck im in glasgow! lol are these well known places or just in cardiff? x

The smaller ones are independent places, so no chains.

The bigger ones such as Jump! I think are nationwide. I really wouldn't rush to places like that with a 7 month old though - there's plenty of time to experience the horror joys of softplay!

There is one in Banbury which has a sensory room, but a bit far for you!

I agree with Iwish - don't rush to it yet! I was so excited to take DS to soft play and didn't realise how horrible it really is If you want to take your DS to a nice sensory room try your local children's centre as they usually have something.

DS had fun in a little tiny soft play area (literally a ball pit and slide) in the corner of a pub in the Isle of Wight when he was about 13 months, but at 7 months he wouldn't have really known what to do with it.

yeah im probably best waiting a few months huh, just fed up doing nothing at the weekend, would love to take her somewhere like that! although she toally loves the sea life center, but we aint made a money lol they should have more places for little ones i think x

i am boycotting jump near us as EVERY time we take ds or any of his friends go they ALWAYS get some horrible lurgy 24-48h later. (they are all just over 1 now but first went at 9mo)
last time there was so much gross-ness i decided to never jump again

umm good point! maybe thses place arnt the best? im alwasy worried about little un catching things x
