An outdoor messy play session for children aged 6 months to 7 years, with taste-safe sensory activities.

Gumtree Kids return to Rivermill with a school-holiday edition built around slime, crafts, and a potion workshop!

Sensory stations are designed to encourage creativity, imagination, learning and play – child-led, with each station tailored to a different developmental stage.

This messy play experience is suitable for children aged 6 months to 7 years, with activities tailored to a range of developmental stages.

Historic Rivermill is approximately 30 minutes from the Gold Coast, making it an easy hinterland outing for families looking for a fun, hands-on morning outdoors.
