After many weeks of looking forward to the annual Children's Festival it finally arrived! Four days jam packed of children's shows and workshops it was bound to be busy and a little frantic, but great nonetheless.
In fact, if you were in Lincoln Centre on March 31 you may have noticed us walking around dressed as clowns/minnie mouse/woody, face-painting and finger-painting especially for the occasion!
Day 1 - "We're Going On A Bear Hunt" with amazing storyteller Kirsty from Rhubarb Theatre, followed by "Let's Make a Salsa Band" and "Travelling By Tuba" in the afternoon (we could hear salsa melodies and rhythms floating through our doors all afternoon!), and finally the Doctor Who TV Quiz in the evening!
Day 2 - Exciting adventures with "The Gruffalo" and Kirsty, brilliant children's author Jeremy Strong and the Waterstones bookshop and storytelling workshop with Pete Davis! Phew.

Day 3 - Face-painting, beautiful and musical performance of Red Riding Hood and for the film fans, a showing of everyone's favourite alien, E.T the extra terrestrial.
Day 4 - Face-painting, dress-up-as-your-favourite-storybook-character Diddy Disco, Caterpillar Club (a disco for toddlers and young-uns with disabilities) and, a night for the parents, the Slimline Papas!
We had an absolute blast with the Children's Festival, and really hope you loved it as much as we did! It was great to see the Drill Hall buzzing with so many families and kids. If you missed out on the Children's Festival but need something to entertain your little ones, please have a look at our family events on our website.
See you soon!
