Our two boys (10 and 8) just enjoyed the Christmas Slime experience with Chloe who was absolutely brilliant and had the kids enthralled. It was also my youngest birthday and she made him feel very special. Thanks so much Chloe! ❤️
Ruby, James and Jersey ran my 7 year olds party and did an exceptional job. Ruby was able to direct a really large group and keep the excitement up and all the kids loved it. Glow in the dark worth the extra pound!
Booked online for a workshop. Booking was quick and easy. Car parking available in Xscape. Upon arrival we were greeted by Ruby. She was just the kind of person you want to have starting your experience somewhere. She told us where we could wait as we were early and then when it was time she did the workshop with us. Well, what a ray of absolute positivity and sunshine. Ruby is such a credit to the company and is setting a standard for all others to strive to be like. She promoted future events, made my daughter feel important and made it so much fun. She is an above and beyond employee. She was engaging, informative and fun! My daughter has talked about her and the experience all afternoon! She has bragged to and shown everyone she has seen her amazing slime and is already planning our next visit! There are lots of different things you can add to your slime. Colours, glitters, sprinkles and even scents! If you’re lucky, they’ll even show you how to make a slime bubble hehe! All of the staff there were amazing too, one was called James and Kate. This really was one of our favourite days out. Thank you for a great day.
Best place for slime lovers!! My 5 yo absolutely and completely loved this experience. Its gooey, its sticky, it's sparkly.. its everything kids love! And the fact they can make choices with colours/ smells etc and take what they create home is such a bonus. Naomi and James were brill teachers and nothing was too much trouble! Fab members of the goo crew 🥰 we will definitely be back and already planning the next birthday party to be there! Thank you gootopia 👏
The butter slime workshop was a 5 out of 5! ⭐️🩷 Ruby and Nicola were great workshop leaders, and were helpful, engaging, and fun throughout. My daughter came away with 3 pots of slime and said it was so much fun! We aren't local but would definitely return. ☺️
