Exeter offers a brilliant range of soft play venues where little ones can burn off energy whatever the weather. The city's play centres typically feature colourful multi-level climbing frames with twisty slides, cargo nets and fun obstacles to navigate. Most venues include dedicated areas for toddlers with gentler play equipment and sensory toys, keeping them safely separated from more boisterous older children. Ball pits are a firm favourite across Exeter's soft play scene, alongside role play areas where imaginations can run wild. Parents can relax with a proper cuppa and slice of cake in the on-site cafés, many of which serve healthy lunch options for hungry explorers. Several centres offer party packages for birthdays, with private rooms and food included. With reasonable entry fees and many centres providing free WiFi, Exeter's soft play venues are perfect for family days out when the Devonshire weather isn't cooperating.
