Halloween Stories at Moors Valley
When? 24 Oct 2018 to 25 Oct 2018
Where? New Forest
A special Halloween story followed by the chance to make your own traditional besom broom.
Get into the Halloween spirit with Julia Donaldson’s popular story ‘Room on the Broom’ before making your very own mini broomstick to fly away home with.
Please meet at the Information Point in the Visitor Centre 5 mins before the start of the event. Booking essential.
The story will be read in our Rafters room accessed via stairs, followed by the broomstick making which will be outdoors.
Some small garden-style hand tools will be used and children will need help from an adult to make their broom. Please be aware – the ideal working ratio is one adult per child. If you are supervising more than one child it will take longer to complete your brooms.
We will be working outdoors with natural materials so children and their clothes may get dirty or even damaged: old clothes are recommended.
10:30am to 11:30am
£4.50 per child
Suitable 4 to 8 years, with help from an adult.
Moors Valley Country Park Visitor Centre.
