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.

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.

NO NEED TO PICK A “BEST” ONE.

YOU STAY.

Both experiences are parent/carer supervised, so you're there with them throughout.

RAIN? WHO CARES.

Both are indoor activities, so the weather doesn't get a vote.

NO EXPERIENCE.

No climbing skills, art skills or preparation required. Turn up and explore.

SMALL-CHILD FRIENDLY.

Both activities are built around younger children, not watered-down versions of older-kid sessions.
