So what’s it all about?

Little Messy Learners offers a unique and exciting mark-making class, created by a qualified teacher, designed for babies, toddlers, and pre-schoolers to learn to write through play. Our program aims to develop children’s pre-writing motor skills and support their physical development. Physical development and mark-making are essential skills for children to master in order to grip objects, hold a pencil, and eventually write. Little Messy Learners classes prepare young children for pre-school/kindy, prep and school by strengthening gross and fine motor skills, core strength, and coordination.

Designed by teachers

A straightforward pre-writing program is implemented, focusing on four types of ‘marks’ that appear in letters, numbers, shapes, and patterns. Each session, children enhance their mark-making skills by learning and practicing the ‘mark of the week’.

Beyond classes, you can offer parents bespoke Little Messy Learners parties, themed events, and collaborate with schools and childcare centres.

What our franchisees think…

“I’ve loved every moment of being a part of a franchise and would recommend to anyone wanting to start a small business if it aligned with the person’s lifestyle and passion. What I’ve enjoyed the most about being in a franchise is running my own business as I wish but also having a team to reach out to talk to and support, you are never alone.”

“Little Messy Learners Canberra not only provide babies and toddlers a fun, engaging environment to get messy and learn to write but to support parents in offering this to their children without needing to worry about the stress of creating ‘messy’ environments at home.”
