Saturdays – Dad’s Stay N Play & SaturPlay

Our Babies, Tots, & Adults sessions aren’t just limited to weekdays either.

Dad’s Stay N Play

Spending quality time together matters, and Dad’s Stay N Play at RUSH 2The DEN gives dads, grandads, stepdads, male carers and father figures a warm, welcoming place to do just that.

Held on the first Saturday of every month, this special session is all about giving little ones and their grown-ups the chance to play, explore, socialise and enjoy time together in a relaxed and friendly space.

There is plenty for children to enjoy, with toys, activities and opportunities for imaginative play, movement and fun. It is also a lovely chance for dads and male carers to meet others, chat, and build connections in the local community.

A space for dads and male carers

Dad’s Stay N Play is all about creating a space where dads and male carers feel comfortable, included and supported. It is a chance to step away from the usual routine and enjoy dedicated time with your child, while also meeting others in a similar position.

These sessions help build confidence, encourage connection, and remind dads and carers that they are an important part of their child’s early experiences and development.

What to expect

At Dad’s Stay N Play, children can enjoy a range of play opportunities in a safe and supportive setting. Sessions are designed to be relaxed and informal, so you can join in at your own pace and simply enjoy time together.

This is a great way to:

  • spend quality one-to-one time with your child
  • help your child build confidence through play
  • meet other local dads and male carers
  • enjoy a fun, friendly start to the weekend

Who is it for?

Dad’s Stay N Play is for babies, toddlers and young children with their dads, grandads or other male carers.

When is it on?

The first Saturday of every month, from 10am until 12pm.

If you are looking for a welcoming weekend activity where children can play and adults can connect, Dad’s Stay N Play at RUSH 2The DEN is the perfect place to be.

SaturPlay

Weekends can be busy, especially for working families, so SaturPlay at RUSH 2The DEN offers a chance to slow down, spend quality time together and let little ones enjoy a morning of fun and play.

Held on the third Saturday of every month, SaturPlay is designed especially with working parents in mind. It gives families who may not be able to attend weekday sessions the chance to enjoy everything RUSH 2The DEN has to offer in a welcoming, inclusive space.

Children can explore, play, learn and socialise, while parents and carers can relax, connect with others and enjoy special time together as a family.

A weekend session for working families

We know that weekday groups are not always possible for every family. SaturPlay helps make sure that parents and carers who work during the week still have access to fun, affordable, community-focused play sessions for their little ones.

Every session offers a warm and friendly atmosphere where children can enjoy a variety of activities and parents can feel right at home.

What to expect

SaturPlay offers a relaxed and enjoyable play environment with plenty to keep little ones busy. It is a chance for children to explore through play, use their imagination, and enjoy time with other children in the community.

Families come along to:

  • enjoy quality time together
  • let children play, explore and socialise
  • meet other local parents and carers
  • take part in a welcoming weekend session at RUSH 2The DEN

Who is it for?

Saturplay is ideal for babies, toddlers and young children with their parents, carers and families, especially those who work during the week and cannot usually attend weekday activities.

When is it on?

The third Saturday of every month, from 10am until 12pm.

If you are looking for a friendly, family-focused weekend session, Saturplay at RUSH 2The DEN is a lovely way to come together, play and make memories.
