The Full Story

Hi, my name is Kellie and I'm the owner of Messy Friends.

​

About Me

I'm the mother of 2 daughters a 3 year old and a 1 year old and have been a childcare educator for the 5 years before having my children.

​

After becoming a mum, I wanted a more flexible work opportunity, and found I wasn't able to achieve it as an educator. While working in childcare I was given the opportunity to run playgroups and messy play sessions and found it was where my passion lied. So I created Messy Friends and now I'm here today telling you about it.

​

So I hope you will join me and let's have fun together!

About Messy Friends
Messy Friends is a Perth WA children's activity business that is all about giving children the chance to explore, learn through play and make new friends. We enable parents to have their children involved in messy activities without the worry about having to come up with ideas, set up, pack away and best of all NO MESS TO CLEAN UP!! It is all done for you! We have fortnightly events throughout the suburbs of Perth Western Australia and can make messy play the star of your child's birthday party.

Each fortnightly session is based around a theme and they run throughout the school terms. Think of these sessions as a 'playgroup meets messy play', a place for you and your children to enjoy the activities, but also to interact with each other and create friendships.

We can also provide messy play activities for your child's birthday party. All you have to do is choose the package that best suits your needs, the activities you want, the location to hold the party and we will do the rest. We provide all the messy play items, do the set up and also the clean up.

Finally we have sensory/messy play kits that you can buy and do with your children in the comfort of your own home. Some of these kits will be smaller versions of our activities we do at our sessions, and will include everything you need for that activity.

So come and join us for some messy fun!!

What is Messy Play

Messy play is a children's activity that involves children using their senses to explore and investigate activities involving paint, sand, water and food items. They don't have to worry about how messy they get, they just have to have fun and learn while they play.
