STEP INTO A MAGICAL JUNGLE ADVENTURE
Located in the stunning Northumberland countryside, Behind the Magic Door is on a mission to create a fun, calming and stimulating space that benefits both kids and adults alike.
Step through behind a magic door and you’ll find yourself in a vibrant jungle. Behind the Magic Door has created an immersive, magical environment that brings nature indoors – perfect for our unpredictable North East climate, right?
Step into the lifelike jungle, complete with artificial grass, a jungle wall and a state-of-the-art, realistic tree. The sensory room features an incredible range of features, including fibre optics, a bubble tube, a soft play area, a ball pit and plenty of sensory toys. Everything in the room is designed to promote development, relaxation and, of course, fun.
A SENSORY ROOM FOR EVERY AGE AND STAGE
What we love is that unlike some other play cafes and sensory rooms, Behind the Magic Door offers pre-walking baby-only sessions so your tiny tots can enjoy sensory play without older children around.
Plus, they have mixed-age slots if you have multiple kids, so no more worrying about whether your baby will be left out of the fun because they’re too young.
Got a special occasion coming up? Whether it’s a big birthday or you need a quieter space for your child’s needs, they’ve got you covered. You can book the private sensory room for just you and your little adventures. They offer private sensory parties from just £40 for an hour for up to 22 people, and you can add extras for a little extra fun.
Whether your baby is just starting to explore the world around them, you want to meet like-minded mums or your toddler is a ball of energy, Behind the Magic Door is designed to engage your little ones at every stage of their development. From calming lights to interactive elements, there’s something for every child to enjoy.
CLEAN, COSY AND CALMING
The team love nothing more than providing a personal experience, which is why they operate on a booking-only basis and limit each session to just five children. This helps keep the atmosphere calm and cosy – so you can expect no overcrowding here.
Relax with your little one while listening to calming nature sounds and relaxing sensory music. It’s the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy some quality time together.
Behind the Magic Door know that you want a space that’s not only fun but also clean, calm and safe. That’s why the team thoroughly clean the room after every session (not just at the end of the day).
HOW TO PLAN YOUR VISIT
Behind the Magic Door is just a 20-minute drive from Newcastle, and there’s no stress about parking either as there is free parking right outside.
You can choose from an open session shared with other guests or opt for a private experience where you’ll have the sensory room all to yourself. Same-day bookings? No problem at all. Simply check the available times and reserve your spot.
So next time you’re Googling ‘sensory room near me’, Behind the Magic Door should be on top of your go-to list.
