Story Explorer Sessions

Adventures for Munchkins on their feet!

Our Story-Explorer© sessions are aimed at toddlers to preschoolers (little ones who are walking through to little ones who are about to start school). Our super active sessions are story-based adventures with a twist! Each week we fly off to storyland on an exciting journey with Oscar and Mabel.

During our active play-along sessions we bring the weekly story to life with interactive fun, sensory play, props, puppets, rhyme, song and movement.

Watch as your little Munchkin(s) practise lots of new skills from whole body motor skills, such as balancing and jumping, through to learning new words, actions and songs as well as how to play socially and explore alongside other little ones.

Come along and join us! Explore together and develop your munchkin’s imagination and creativity …. there’s heaps to do!!

Make new friends, see your child engaging in activities that encourage all areas of their development from physical through to social and speaking and listening skills.

The sessions are designed for both you (parents and carers) and your Munchkin(s) and will encourage new friendships to bloom and grow as well as to support your little one’s early development.

Interactive Play-Along Storytelling

Our Story-Explorer sessions for toddlers and preschoolers begin by bringing stories to life through an active play-along, story-time featuring much loved Oscar Orangutan and Mabel Monkey.

Join us as each week we go on a story-adventure with activities, rhyme, music and movement including exciting props to help fire your tots imagination and help them to become part of the story.

Play Stations to Explore

Because we know little ones love to be ‘on the go’, our unique sessions include free-play and exploration time, during which your munchkins can explore a variety of fun themed play-stations based on the story of the week.

Often with messy-play activities included, each story-station is designed to be fun and encourage early years learning and development.

Discover more in our munchkins Development Section.

For You Too

The Play-Along story time is for you and your little one to have fun together engaging with the story. You will learn songs, actions and simple sign that will help you bring stories to life at home too!

Munchkin and Me® is about you too, and another aim of the unstructured free-play time element is to give you (parents/carers) the chance to chat, bond and for invaluable friendships to develop in a welcoming and supportive environment.
