Ollie Polly Christmas Story Sessions 2026

You better not pout, you better not cry....Christmas really is coming to Ollie Polly Play Cafe...

We've been really good all year at Ollie Polly so Father Christmas has promised us a special Story Time visit on Friday the 19th of December. We are so excited, not to mention grateful that he's taking time out of his busy pre-christmas schedule to come and say hi to all our Ollie Polly friends and families.

Parents and grandparents can watch little ones play while you enjoy a hot drink & treat included in your ticket price (did someone say Baileys Latte?) There'll also be a selection of deliciously festive eats and treats available from our menu and do have a browse of our shop for your stocking fillers.

Father Christmas will arrive and tell the children a short story... Your toddler can then enjoy a mini breakfast, pasta or sandwich plate with a juice or water to drink (1 meal per child ticket holder).

After Breakfast/lunch our Head Elf will then invite each group, in turn, to join Father Christmas for their mini grotto experience; while our professional photographer takes some lovely photos. Each child will have a chat with Father Christmas and be given a gift to put under the Christmas tree. While you wait for your child's turn they can go and play; or we will have some colouring & paper chains for you to make with your little ones

After a bit more playtime, all tired out, it will be time to say goodbye and head home.

You will be given a QR code to access your photographs where you will be able to choose one digital image to keep, make into cards & gifts etc.

Ticket required for all adults and children over 6 months. Children under 1 will receive a book to enjoy with their adult as a gift from Father Christmas and a choice of Ella's food pouch and Organix baby snack
