We’ve created everything you need to help make your Play Date a success. It’s literally as easy as child’s play!

Press play on a movie marathon, shake things up with a cocktail party, gear up for a family fun day or roll the dice for a games night. Whatever you do is up to you. Follow these simple steps to start your Play Date:

Lego Swap – grab your bricks and get building.

Dance Party – Crank up the kid friendly tunes and let them dance it out.

Movie Marathon – Don’t forget the popcorn and sweets!

Obstacle Course – Who can clamber the course and conquer it the fastest?
