HUNDREDS of babies in Rayleigh were busy this week dressing up and raising money for Children in Need.

The baby sensory classes run at The Snug in Rayleigh every week day and are for babies from birth up to 13 months.

The little bundles of joy dressed up in Pudsey outfits and brought their teddies along to class to enjoy a class full of action songs, role play, balloons, bubbles and a snuggle with the teddies to finish.
