Here is an example of how to fill in breakfast or lunch with Santa forms - each drop down box will show all options for either a child or adult but it's just a case of choosing the one needed for your required choice for each person - I hope this helps - Nikki

What a wonderful week it has been! The rainy weather certainly brought in the crowds, and it has been fantastic seeing so many bright smiles and welcoming new faces through our doors.
​With so many new families joining our community, we want to take this opportunity to gently remind all our families what makes Marvels so special. We are proud to be an inclusive, warm, and entirely non judgemental space. While our doors are open to everyone, our primary focus will always be providing neuro diverse children and their families a safe haven where they can play and be themselves without fear of judgement.
​During your visit, you will likely meet children with a wide variety of needs, sensory profiles, and ways of communicating that may look different from your own family's. At Marvels, our promise to you is simple, as long as you are actively supervising and supporting your child, our team has your back every step of the way.
​If your child is having a tricky, dysregulated, or overwhelming moment, you will never be judged here. Between our sensory room, quiet room, ear defenders, sensory resources, and a compassionate team ready to lend a hand, we will offer support and understanding. Navigating a neurodivergent journey in a mainstream world can be exhausting, and we want to ensure you always feel seen and supported.
​We kindly ask that all visitors honour our Marvel family values by treating every child, parent, and carer with kindness, patience, and respect. Thank you for helping us keep Marvels a safe and joyful space for everyone who walks through the door. 💞
