AFAIK there is a mother and toddler group in Clonmel one morning a week, I think it's in that community place near the Crescent shop and the high school

It's not Tipp, but there is a soft-play area free of charge in MacDonagh Shopping Centre in Kilkenny city.

They also do 'baby boogie' - disco dancing for babies! - on Tuesdays from 10-12.

I know, it can be very brrrrrr in there at times. :eek: Going to try the group in Cahir, alto can't get phone no so hopefully it's still on. Empire of Fun in Tipp Town is supposed to be good, might be nearer for you than Limerick

Hi,

Empire of fun in Tipp town is fantastic, especially for young kids. I take my 3 year old and 1 year old there and it is the best one I've been to for preschoolers.

The parent and toddler groups in Thurles and Gortnahoe are great, very well run and attended by a nice group.

Hope you find somewhere as it is important to get out and about when they are young ... so that you don't lose your mind!!!

Best of luck!

HI,

Yea, I've heard great things about it, glad your little ones are enjoying it

Thurles is too far from me and to be honest I don't know where Gortnahoe is:o:o

Didn't make it to Cahir last week but will def try this week and need more conversation than just baby talk if only for an hour...
