6 Escape Rooms In Liverpool

No comments

Is there anything better than being locked in a room with your partner, friends or colleagues for 1 hour working together to try and escape? We love an Escape Room and it's probably one of our favourite things to do as a couple. Escape Rooms have become so popular over the last few years and we are lucky to have quite a few options here in Liverpool. 

Escape Live

Escape Live Liverpool ONE, 3 College Ln, Paradise St, Liverpool L1 3DS

Escape Live Liverpool located in Liverpool One is Escape Live’s newest venue. Indulge in a unique form of entertainment where you and your partner, friends or colleagues venture into a fully immersive world. Once inside 1 of the 6 escape rooms on offer you must crack codes, solve puzzles and work together in order to unlock the mystery of the room and escape! 

Each room has it's own minimum age requirement and difficulty level. 

Peaky Blinders Double Cross - Minimum age 18+ with a difficulty rating of 3*

Peaky Blinders The Raid - Minimum age 16+ with a difficulty rating of 4*

Jack The Ripper - Minimum age 11+ with a difficulty rating of 5*

Prison Break - Minimum age 8+ with a difficulty rating of 4*

Horrible Histories Mystery Museum - Minimum age 7+ with a difficulty rating of 4*

You can also enjoy the atmosphere and outdoor terrace high above the streets of Liverpool before your challenge or maybe pop up afterwards to discuss your victory or defeat over a drink. 

We haven't tried any of the Escape Live rooms yet so cannot comment however we hopefully will visit soon and I will make sure I pop back here to update. 

I am unsure of the opening times however it does look like you can book games from 9:30am-9:30pm.

Breakout Liverpool

Breakout Liverpool, 7-11 Sir Thomas St, Liverpool, L1 6BW

Breakout Liverpool boasts it is Liverpool's number one live escape room centre. It is host to 13 uniquely themed escape rooms which are perfect to complete with friends, families, colleagues, or our favourite, date nights! 

Breakout Liverpool offers you the chance to enter the room in teams of 2 - 5 people and like most escape rooms you will have 60 minutes to work together, solve puzzles and escape.

Each of the 13 rooms have different themes and difficulty levels. If it's your first time I would start off with a lower difficulty just to get you used to the game. 

We have completed most of the rooms at Breakout Liverpool with a difficulty of 4 or below out of 5. We are on a 100% escape record so we are ready to take the jump to a 5 star room next time!

Break Out Liverpool is open 7 days a week 10am-10pm

To find out more, prices and to book visit Breakout Liverpool or click to read our review

Escape Hunt

Escape Hunt, Atlantic Pavilion Albert Dock, Liverpool L3 4AE

Escape Hunt games are extremely fun. There are 5 escape rooms to choose from for you and your teammates to complete ground-breaking missions. 

In teams of 2-6 you must find clues, solve puzzles and complete challenges before the time runs out.

Escape Hunt is a little different to Breakout Out. It's a lot more puzzle based rather than finding combinations for locks. There are some locks to open however we find Escape Hunt to be more immersive than Break Out. 

We have completed 3 out of the 5 Escape Rooms at Escape Hunt and again we have a 100% record. The rooms are not difficulty based you just need to be 8+ to play.

The Benefits Of Wraparound Care For Parents and Children

No comments

Disclosure - This is a collaborative post

In today's fast-paced world, finding the right balance between work, family, and personal time can be a challenging task for parents. This is where wraparound care steps in as a valuable resource. This holistic approach to childcare provides a wide range of benefits for both parents and children, fostering a supportive environment that promotes well-being and growth. Inspired by the teachings of this private school in West Sussex, continue reading for the benefits of wraparound care for parents and children.

Flexibility and Convenience

Wraparound care offers parents the flexibility they need to manage their work commitments while ensuring their children receive the care and attention they require. With extended hours, including early mornings and evenings, parents have the freedom to structure their schedules more efficiently, reducing stress and enhancing productivity.

Consistency and Stability

Children thrive on routine and stability. Wraparound care provides a consistent environment, helping children build trust and confidence in their caregivers. Knowing that they have a safe, reliable place to go before and after school allows them to focus on learning and play without worrying about disruptions in their daily routine.

Academic Support and Enrichment

Many wraparound care programs offer educational activities and homework assistance, providing children with valuable support in their academic pursuits. This additional guidance can help reinforce learning and improve performance in school, ultimately contributing to a child's long-term success.

Social Development and Interaction

Interacting with peers in a structured environment is crucial for a child's social development. Wraparound care offers ample opportunities for children to engage with their peers, build friendships, and develop essential social skills. These experiences help children grow emotionally and intellectually, preparing them for future social situations.

Physical Activity and Well-being

Engaging in physical activities is essential for a child's overall health and well-being. Many wraparound care programs incorporate outdoor play, sports, and other physical activities, promoting a healthy lifestyle and teaching children the importance of staying active.

Emotional and Behavioural Support

Trained caregivers in wraparound care programs are equipped to address a child's emotional and behavioural needs. They provide a nurturing environment where children can express themselves and learn valuable coping mechanisms. This support can be especially beneficial for children facing challenges or transitions in their lives.

Peace of Mind for Parents

Knowing that their children are in a safe and enriching environment provides parents with peace of mind. This allows them to focus on their work or personal commitments, knowing that their children are well-cared for and thriving in a supportive setting.

Wraparound care is a valuable resource that not only supports parents in their professional endeavours but also nurtures the growth and development of children. With its flexibility, consistency, academic support, and emphasis on social and emotional well-being, wraparound care plays a vital role in creating a positive and enriching environment for families. Embracing this holistic approach can lead to happier, healthier, and more balanced lives for both parents and children.

The 2023 UK Tour Has Come To An End - Check Back For Tour Updates

I have always loved musicals ever since I was a little girl. I grew up watching musicals such as Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, Calamity Jane and The King and I. However one of my favourite was Annie. I watched it several times a week and would practice the dance routines in our living room. I must have drove my parents mad. A few years ago I went to the theatre to watch Annie the Musical. I was blown away. Everything about the show was fantastic from start to finish so when we got the chance to see the show again we jumped at the chance.
