Messy Lab Grads is the next step in your little artist’s messy journey—designed especially for older toddlers and preschoolers who are ready for more independence but still thrive in a nurturing, play-based environment. This class builds on the sensory-rich magic of our original Messy Lab experience, offering slightly more structured invitations to play, create, and explore. Perfect for children ages 2.5–5, Messy Lab Grads encourages deeper sensory exploration, imaginative thinking, early social-emotional learning, and growing independence—all while embracing the same joyful mess!Gentle Drop-Off:
Messy Lab Grads is a gentle drop-off option. That means caregivers are welcome to stay close by (in our craft cafe or just outside the classroom) while your child eases into independent play. We know every child is different—some may dive in right away, while others may need a little more time to feel secure. Our caring instructors are here to support each transition with patience and warmth. If your child isn’t quite ready to separate fully, that’s okay! We’ll work with your family at their own pace to build confidence and connection.
The Importance of Messy Play:
At this stage, sensory play helps preschoolers explore cause and effect, practice cooperation, refine motor skills, and express creativity in open-ended ways. By encouraging unstructured, hands-on play, we create space for curiosity, risk-taking, and problem-solving—all essential building blocks for school readiness and lifelong learning.
What to Bring:
Messy Lab Grads is, well… messy!
Please dress your child in clothes that can get dirty and bring a change of clothes just in case. We use food-safe, non-toxic materials, and are happy to accommodate allergies—just let us know on your registration form and talk to your instructor before class.
Why Families Love It:
Messy Lab Grads blends the best of early childhood play with just enough structure to support growth and independence—without rushing it. Come see why this is a favorite next step for families who’ve outgrown Messy Lab but still want all the fun, freedom, and flourished creativity.
