The activities

Everything in the play area is meant to be calm, simple and safe for a toddler to use with a grown-up nearby. Nothing is sold, nothing is tracked, and there are no links to other websites.

Each activity has its own information for parents, and a printable version for when you would rather have paper and crayons. Each one also lists the areas of learning it supports in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), for nurseries, childminders and teachers.

Questions parents ask

Is the play area free?

Yes. It is free to use, with no ads, no sign-up and nothing to buy.

Does it collect information about my child?

No. There are no accounts, no cookies and no tracking. Anything a child makes is saved only on your own device. You can read more on our privacy page.

Can my child leave the website by accident?

The play pages have no links to other websites. The only links go back to our home page, our privacy page and the grown-ups’ pages.
