About Sensory Play Activities for Children's Events
Why I Love Messy Play
I’m a mom who’s seen firsthand how much kids learn when they’re free to get messy. My style is simple - I set up the space, let the kids lead, and only step in if they need help. Messy play isn’t just fun, it’s where real learning happens.
What I Set Up
I create pop-up sensory play stations for children’s events, especially birthday parties in Bangalore. Each setup is minimal but packed with things to touch, scoop, pour, and explore. I bring everything needed, so you don’t have to worry about a thing.
How Kids Benefit
- Sensory bins for birthday parties help kids build new brain connections and learn new words.
- Activities like threading, pouring, and scooping boost fine motor skill activities for toddlers.
- Themed sensory stations for kids spark imagination and encourage social play.
- Water and mud play can calm kids and help them let off steam.
Custom Themes & Activities
I can match almost any theme your child loves - wild animals, dinosaurs, fairy gardens, or storybooks. Activities include sensory bins with colored rice, water beads, and mud, process art like bubble painting, and pretend play setups.
Safety & Practical Bits
I use only non-toxic, taste-safe sensory materials for little ones. I’ll always flag any small parts. Best for ages 10 months to 5 years. I bring tarps to keep the mess contained, and I love getting kids involved in cleanup. Parents are welcome to join in and play alongside their kids.

My Story
Hey, I’m a mom, just like you maybe. My son Aneesh is the reason I started all this - watching him get his hands into mud and scented playdough, seeing his face light up, that’s magic for me. I’m all about letting kids get messy, explore smells and textures, make their own rules. I step back, let them lead. Now I’m diving into Montessori too, so expect more child-led fun from me.
My Work
Handmade Sensory Kits & Play Setups - I make handmade sensory kits and set up themed messy play for birthdays and events.
Simple & Messy Play - Minimal setups, lots of textures, smells, sounds. Kids get messy, explore, and just be themselves.
Child-Led, Montessori Inspired - Children lead the play. I step in only if needed. Taste-safe playdough and nature-based sensory play always available.
How It Helps Kids - Boosts fine motor skills, helps them notice differences, calms oral motor, and outdoor mud play is great for gut health!
