SOFT PLAY ALTERNATIVE IN TORQUAY:
BAMBINOS & MESSY MINIS
Two very different ways for little ones to burn energy, explore, create and have a brilliant time.
Choose active climbing and play with Bambinos, or get hands-on with paint, foam, water and sensory activities at Messy Minis.
Looking for soft play in Torquay? The Bunker offers something a little different. Bambinos turns our climbing hall into a toddler-proofed active play space for 0–5s every Monday, Wednesday and Friday morning. Messy Minis is a 60-minute sensory session with paint, foam and water. Both are indoor, parent supervised and suit any weather.

MESSY MINIS
IN REAL LIFE.
LITTLE
PEOPLE.
DIFFERENT
ENERGY.
Some days they need to climb everything in sight. Other days they want to put their hands in paint, foam and whatever else looks interesting.
That’s why the combined page shouldn’t force both activities into one generic “toddler session”. Parents can land in one place, see the difference instantly, and book the one that suits their child that day.
THEY’RE MEANT TO BE DIFFERENT.
GOOD FOR THEM.
EASY FOR YOU.
Both experiences are parent/carer supervised, so you’re there with them throughout.
Both are indoor activities, so the weather doesn’t get a vote.
No climbing skills, art skills or preparation required. Turn up and explore.
Both activities are built around younger children, not watered-down versions of older-kid sessions.
