About Us
Role2Play is an indoor child-friendly town where children can pretend to be whoever they want to be, whilst making sense of the world we live in. Each play area is fully resourced to reflect the different parts of society that we live in. This type of play would be suited to children who are independent walkers to aged 7. As much as the children are all having fun in these sessions, they are actually learning at the same time, role play brings along a whole host of benefits too.
Role2Play comprises of different parts of the community through well thought-out play areas that replicate cafes, supermarkets, medical centres, construction sites, vets, all creatively put together, so children can learn more about our world safely whilst building fundamental skills.
Children love nothing more than to imitate what we do as adults, and what better role models to learn from than you and everything that you do in your daily lives. Role2Play has well-thought-out play areas that encourage your little ones to play a role in a safe environment.
The facility has been purposefully built with parents and carers in mind to make their visit as smooth and pleasant (dare we say fun?) as possible – even with children in tow.
The Owners
Amie
First and foremost a mum of 2 boys, 8 years old and 5 years old. A former primary teacher in an inner London primary school worked mainly with Early Years and Year 1 children. Loved the creativity that a reception teacher was able to bring into the classroom, now I can do that every day, knowing that it’ll bring excitement to children as soon as they step inside. These days, I really enjoy finding new experiences with my boys and keeping them entertained is more than a full-time job for me.
Kate
A mum of three boys, 8 years old, 5 years old and 15 months old. I was a legal PA for 7 years at a city law firm. Loved what I did until I had my first son I felt the urge to do something different. Whilst I was on maternity leave with my second son, the opportunity to join Role2play came along. I really loved the idea when Amie was starting it all up and have been along side her talking about ideas and setup. My husband helped with some DIY jobs too. Never had I thought I would be involved with such an amazing project, creating a great space for children to learn through play and good space for adults to hopefully enjoy a cuppa. Admittedly there's been some challenges but I absolutely love what we do.
