Cafés · Livingston
A weekday go-to for Livingston parents, this is a play café rather than a soft play — a small climbing frame, a tunnel with a scrambling option, and themed corners including a pirate ship, a shop, a garage with wooden accessories and a separate baby area. Every table overlooks the play space, so you can drink a coffee (or get some work done) while keeping eyes on them, and there's no time limit, which takes the pressure off. The building also runs baby classes and support groups. Food is reasonably priced with a kids' menu, vegan options and children's snacks you can grab if you've forgotten yours; the pancake platter with chocolate spread and apple slices goes down well. Buggy access, high chairs and free parking, though street spaces and noise both depend on the time of day.

A little something creative for your next meal out. Filled with colouring, simple drawing prompts for cute animals, origami and conversation starters designed to bring more play, laughter and connection to the table. 3 free printable packs for toddlers, preschoolers and primary-aged children.
