Children's Storytime: Teddy Bears Picnic!
Thursday 18th June, 2026
11-11.45 am, The Children's Room
Bring your stuffed pals for this storytime picnic! Aidan, our resident storyteller, will be delighting children with a tale (or two!), followed by a very silly activity and snack.
Tickets are £2 per-child, redeemable against a book purchase on the day. (No charge for babes in arms or accompanying adults).
Need to Know Info:
This event will take place in the Children's room at The Barn. We have limited space for buggies and scooters etc outside, weather permitting. Regrettably we do not have dedicated inside space for buggy storage but we will do our best to accommodate everyone.
The storytime will be ideal for children of pre-school age up to age 7 plus any baby / toddler siblings. Home educating families are very welcome.
Children will be seated on the carpet, with a limited supply of cushions available. Parents will be provided with stools as needed.
A short creative activity may be offered for children who wish to participate.
Please note we do not have a customer toilet available. We'd recommend encouraging toilet trips beforehand if possible (though we do appreciate children can be unpredictable in this regard and can accommodate toilet trips if needed!).
Limited parking is available at the back of the shop, with more free on-street parking and a free car park nearby.
Photos may be taken during the event for social media purposes. Please rest assured that backs of heads only will be photographed unless explicit permission has been given by the accompanying adult. If you would prefer for your child not to be in any photos do just let us know and we will be sure to honour this.
