We’d like to thank everyone who has donated to Kidzeco this last year. Your ongoing support is appreciated and we couldn’t do it without you! We’ve received so many great donations so far this festive season and hope you understand that we need a few days to clear the decks for the New Year.  Therefore, we won’t be able to accept donations from 25th December to 4th January while we work through all your great donations. However, we’ll be ready and waiting in the New Year, so we would be grateful if you held on to any of your donations until then.

All we ask of you is to enjoy the festivities and have a Merry Christmas!

We still have a 20% off everything sale going on in-store until the 24th December so check us out for your last minute Christmas shopping, grab a bargain and support your local community, all at the same time!

‘Tis the season to be stressed. Christmas time is always a magical time of year; the decorations, music, lights, and the general atmosphere are amazing. However, it’s also the most stressful time of year. Getting your last minute Christmas shopping done can be a bother, especially when you’ve got the wee ones to look after at the same time.

We set up our soft play at our Livingston store in June this year. So, this will be it’s first Christmas at Kidzeco. It’s an excellent opportunity for you to get your Christmas shopping done, recharge your batteries, and let your wee ones have a blast and tire themselves out.

The soft play is open from 10:00 – 16:00 from Monday to Saturday. Each sessions last 30 minutes and only costs £1 per child.  Please note that the age limit is 5 years old.

If you’re not sure on the location, how to get there, or just have a few questions – please check out our contact page.

Dreams Factory Photography will be holding their Mini Christmas Sessions at Kidzeco Bathgate on 3rd of December. They have done the photography at our most recent Bumpathon and produce some amazing photographs, so we’re happy to have them back at Kidzeco.

These mini sessions are perfect for children from 4 months to 10 years and each session lasts around 30-40 minutes. Parents are more than welcome to jump in the pictures with their children.  Pets are fine too! It’s a great opportunity to capture those special Christmas memories of your children and it’s a great gift as well!

There will be three different packs available for booking; Rudolf Pack – £65, Elf Pack – £85, and Santa Pack – £130. Each pack has a discount for Kidzeco customers! More information about the mini sessions and pack differences in the images below.

Booking is available via Kidzeco, so just pop into our shops or email us at enquiries@kidzeco.net! We look forward to hearing from you.

We’re also launching a new project as part of our commitment to helping families in the community. We’ll be creating a handmade box full of essentials for newborns and young children. Everything will be selected from the fantastic donations that we’ve received, placed in a recyclable box, and given to families who may need a little help… all for FREE.

But we need your help naming the project! Please send us your great suggestions at enquiries@kidzeco.net. If we pick your suggestion you’ll receive £20 of Kidzeco vouchers or a half price Kidzeco party.

We’ll be announcing the winning project name, at the end of the Money Week event, on October 15^th.
