Play on The Bus

Pippa The Ten-Ton Bus of Fun is a soft-play, double-decker party bus based in Halesowen, West Midlands and operating in the Black Country and South Birmingham and also North Worcestershire. Children of all ages love bounding through her ball pit, clambering about her climbing frames, curling up in her cargo net and slithering down her slide. We offer a range of packages for Nursery and Primary schools as well as private hire packages for birthdays, weddings, festivals and events.

Go to Train My Caveman

Train My Caveman

Train My Caveman is the result of years of working with young people (and the not so young) with emotional management/relational issues and watching them struggle to form and build healthy relationships with their peers and adults in their lives. The program builds upon ThinQ Education’s existing R.I.C.H and RAISER Resilience programs. We deliver the program in school over one or two days (for the extended version*) and it includes assemblies, workshops and small group activities that utilise humour and fun to help young people develop key emotional intelligence and character attributes. *Extended version includes additional small group work and the Caveman Games
