Playpen – stay and play toddler group – Christ Church Gipsy Hill

Playpen is a ‘Stay and Play’ Baby and Toddler Group for 0-4 year olds that runs in the Church & Goodliffe Hall, on Wednesday and Thursday mornings during term time. It is run by Jenny Thomas and a team of volunteers from the church and local community.

For parents and carers, Playpen is a place to come and forge new supportive relationships with other people. It’s somewhere to feel a sense of community and belonging, and to enjoy quality time with your child.

For the children, Playpen provides a fun play environment with a variety of toys and activities set out each week. We lead a group song time, which is followed by ‘snack time’ when we provide fruit, a biscuit and a drink.

We accept up to 45 children and do not have a membership list – just turn up! Entry is £3 per child. We operate a cashless system so pleased come prepared to pay by card.
