On Sunday afternoon we drove up to West Bromwich to attend the ‘VIP launch event’ of Inflata Nation’s latest ‘inflatable theme park’, which opened this week. We spent a happy two hours bouncing about, exploring all the centre had to offer, and slurping on some refreshing slushies!
On Saturday morning we headed over to Midlands Arts Centre (MAC) to see Rudolf, their new children’s theatre show suitable for children aged 4+.
One thing that the children look forward to and really enjoy each winter is going to visit Santa – or his ‘helpers’ at least – and taking part in as many of the festive activities in the West Midlands we can manage. Where we live there are plenty of places to go and see Father …
Last week we were invited along to check out the launch event of SnowDome’s festive offering; Santa’s Winter Wonderland. With real snow to play in, a show to entertain you, and real life reindeer to meet, it was a great way to spend an evening.
On Saturday morning we hopped in the car and drove over to the NEC Birmingham to attend the Brick Live show – “built for LEGO fans” – for a day full of building and looking at lots and lots of LEGO models!
At the weekend we drove down to Hatton Adventure World in Warwickshire to check out their Halloween half term offering; Pumpkin Spooktacular. With everything from a witch to learn spells from to a hunt for pumpkin animal signs, there is plenty of Halloween goodness to enjoy and to keep you entertained all day long.
On Sunday we drove over to Drayton Manor to spend the day enjoying the rides and finding out just what they have going on for their Halloween half term “More Treat than Trick” event.
At the weekend we headed over to Twycross Zoo near Atherstone to attend the launch event for the Great Brick Safari which is at the zoo until 7th January. With over 70 life-sized LEGO brick animals on display, our pair of LEGO addicts had a great time racing around hunting for them all.
On Sunday afternoon we headed to Cannon Hill park here in Birmingham to see the Pinky Ponk show at In The Night Garden Live. The 2018 tour is now underway, and it is the last clnance to watch the beloved characters from the Night Garden in their infamous Showdome.
During the Easter holidays we enjoyed a day out at Twycross Zoo, which is home to almost 150 species.
