About Us

Mucky Ducks is the first and original entirely edible messy play specifically designed for babies aged 2 months to 4 years. Events take place across a variety of community venues, Mucky Ducklings 2-6 months, Mucky Ducks Minis 6-18 months and Mucky Ducks 6 months- 4 years. If you love what we do, why not book us for a private event or birthday party!

New to Mucky Ducks- Starting Solids Support, all of our owners are now fully training Starting Solids Facilitators and can provide expert advice during events as well as specific Starting Solids courses, workshops and lunches.

All edible messy play for babies aged 2- 6 months. A great introduction to messy play and food. Evidence suggests that children need between 8- 10 touches of food before they are ready to taste it. Mucky Ducklings allows children to touch and feel a wide variety of foods with a different menu at each event.

Experience the joy of Mucky Ducks – we’re not just about Messy Play; we’re your all-you-can-eat buffet! Each month, we unveil a new theme with a corresponding seasonal menu, carefully crafted to introduce kids to both familiar and new foods. Research indicates that exposing children to diverse flavours early on reduces fussy eating and encourages healthier choices in adulthood. Let Mucky Ducks be your guide through the weaning journey, providing inspiration for home experimentation. Our menus feature a rotating selection of seasonal herbs, beans, pulses, grains, as well as an enticing array of fruits and vegetables. Dive into a world where every meal is a playful exploration of tastes and textures! 

During weekends & school holidays we run Mucky Ducks Specials where we add additional activities to appeal to older children, so sensory seekers and older siblings, can enjoy too. This includes things like an edible painting wall and creation station.

Celebrate your little one's birthday with a delightful twist! Indulge their love for messy play or food with our 6 delectable tuff tray creations, water station and Mucky Ducks cleaning station. As the party winds down, we offer children's cleaning stations and bubbles to have them refreshed and ready in their party attire. For older guests, we introduce a creating station and an edible painting wall. The messy play party, lasting 45 minutes to 1 hour, can accommodate up to 25 guests at your chosen venue. Opt for themed experiences like Farmyard Friends, Dino World, Under the Sea, Magical Lands, or Zoo Keeper, or discuss your specific theme or character ideas with us. Rest assured, we can accommodate all allergies – just let us know.
