Just found out from our Nanny that adults are now no longer allowed upstairs at soft play due to Health and Safety reasons! Thus he can't let the little ones go upstairs any more as it's not really safe for two 20 month olds to roam up there on their own. Does anyone know anything about this? Seems ridiculous and surely less safe for the kids.

Yes, I got a thorough telling off for being up there with my kids a couple of months ago. Apparently "it causes too much wear and tear on the frame". Ho hum. Means I no longer go there as neither of my children are capable of managing it by themselves, and they get too bored being downstairs.


From what I saw the day I was there (school holidays) it means that older kids get the chance to run riot, blocking off parts of the upstairs section so that the little ones can't get through.


Happily the soft play at Beckenham Spa still allow adults to take part, and it's much cleaner/nicer/more fun than Peckham!

True, but it's also much more expensive than PP.

I got told off years ago for being 'upstairs' at PP - back when my 5 year old was around 2, so I think it has always been the rule, maybe it just always doesn't get enforced so much.


I agree it is annoying, I've been to other soft play's up in Derbyshire where my Mum and Sister live and they also allow adults to go up to the higher levels with the children.

    • I understand that, but I can't really grasp how it works in practice, but never mind 😵‍💫
    • It's local independent shops supporting one another.
    • Adding my recommendation for Niko too. Found his number on here and he came out at short notice on a busy weeknight to help us with a kitchen sink issue that had flooded our kitchen that day. Really helpful, responsive and went out of his way to fit us in and help us out. Very reasonably priced too - would thoroughly recommend!
    • Looks like it! Though according to the OP, they are "golden, hand-crimped parcels  packed with flavour" 😀 I don't understand. Admittedly my brain is functioning at a very low level at the moment. Does that mean various local shops get together and agree to offer a discount to anyone who shows them a receipt from one of the other ones dated the same day? I can't see what's in it for either of them, unless people shop somewhere they wouldn't otherwise have done just to get the discount. Is it for vaguely  linked things, say cheese from a cheese shop, wine from another shop? Showing my age there.  And then suppose it's always the same shop which people go to second to get the discount? What's in it for the first shop? People go there in order to get the discount in the second shop?
