# You're invited to Say Yes to Mess
## 3rd - 10th October 2026
Mud on knees. Paint-covered fingers. Sand in shoes. Water everywhere. To adults, it can look a mess. To a child, these are the experiments, adventures, works of art and new discoveries that become important opportunities to learn.
Join us for a unique **Messy Play experience** this Open Week! Get stuck in and see for yourself why we say Yes to Mess.
Tours will be available across the week, with a Saturday opening from 10am to 2pm (date varies by nursery).

## Why Kids Planet?
We’re an award-winning group of nurseries and preschools, trusted by thousands of families across the UK. Every one of our settings is a safe, supportive space where children feel at home – and where curiosity, confidence, and kindness are nurtured every day.
Whether you’re looking for a gentle start for your baby or a setting that’ll prepare your preschooler for school, we’d love to welcome you in.
###### A gentle start
Whether it’s your baby’s first time away from you, or your toddler is ready to explore, we work closely with you to make the transition as smooth as possible. We take our time to get to know you and your child – what comforts them, what sparks their curiosity, what helps them feel secure.
###### Learning through every moment
We believe that learning happens in the everyday – through play, conversations, movement and nature. Our teams are trained in early years education, and gently support children to build confidence, independence and a love of learning, in a way that suits them. From baby yoga to phonics and school readiness, every experience is designed to support your child’s next step.
###### Time outdoors, every day
We believe the best learning doesn’t always happen indoors. In all of our nurseries, outdoor learning is part of everyday life – not just a special treat. Whatever the weather, we make sure children have time to explore, move, and connect with nature.
###### Support where it’s needed
No two children are the same. We take time to understand and support each child as an individual – whether that’s through SEND support, working alongside external professionals, or simply being there with patience and care. Mental health and emotional wellbeing matter from day one, and our team are here to nurture it through strong relationships and consistent care.
