Just one hour from London, Amanda’s Play Centre in Bicester, is a fantastically well-placed venue for any family from London, Oxford and the Cotswolds who wants to host a Kids Birthday Party.  For any family within that ‘magic triangle’ or the M25 ring – they can just scoot round to M40, Jcn 9 and you’re there – it’s practically on your door step.  So get yourself along to the child-friendly and well-appointed Amanda’s Play Centre at 42 Murdock Rd, Bicester, OX26 4PP: parking is plentiful & it’s FREE – open 7 days-a-week from 10am to 6pm.   Booking Amanda’s Play Centre for your own special Birthday Party couldn’t be easier: just telephone the Centre on 01869 325 544 or alternatively the Centre Manager, Claudine, on 0789 616 1841 and she’ll  take care of the rest!

And if you want to make a completely fantabulous day-out of it – why not pop along to the nearby Bicester Village Outlet Shopping with its 100+ Luxury Outlet Boutiques.  Their complementary opening hours of:
MON, TUES, WEDS & SUN 10AM – 6PM
THURS, FRI & SAT 10AM – 7PM

If you’ve never been to Bicester nor even heard of the Bicester Village, according to Global Refund Tax Free shopping, Bicester Village is the ’Numero Uno’ retail destination outside London for non-EU visitors. After 14 years of trading – approx 44% of Bicester Village brands are represented in the most exclusive of London’s full-price shopping streets, which include Sloane Street and Bond Street. Set near the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) at the heart of rural Oxfordshire - Bicester Village enjoys a prime central location in England with exceptional transport links.  Also within striking distance are renowned tourist destinations, among them Blenheim Palace, the National Trust 19th Century Renaissance-style château Waddesdon Manor and Oxford with its fabled ‘dreaming spires’ …. and as if that wasn’t enough ‘attractions’ to tempt you to visit Bicester … they can now boast Amanda’s Play Centre as well  … “somebody stop me”…!

Amanda has selected Yes! SuperBaby’s Music Scarves to complement her baby classes to support the Early Years Foundation Stage and build an enriching environment in which babies can learn by touching the scarves, playing with the chunky knots and satin tags. Baby’s fine motor skills get further enhanced by learning how to press the squeaker and turning on their own music – both are integrated in the famous Music Scarf. They are a fun way to learn from an early age onwards.

Today saw the start of Yes! SuperBaby’s Music Scarves at Amanda’s Action Kids Class in Wandsworth in the middle of the famous Nappy Valley. Parents and baby loved the products, babies didn’t want to stop playing. At the end parents held their babies in their arms and danced together. To allow their baby to shake a musical instrument it was attached to the scarf, which was great as nothing fell down on the floor anymore and babies could happily play along.

You can purchase a Yes! SuperBaby’s Music Scarf at any one of Amanda’s classes – just give your requirements to the class leader and they’ll do the rest for you.
