BATS BUGS AND BOGIES

 

Join us for a free day of storytelling and activities!! 

We are delighted at Northwood House to welcome the fantastic Sue and Holly who will be bringing ‘Bats Bugs and Bogeys’ to life! Sue and Holly are amazing storytellers and creators with bags of experience. They have worked as part of the Isle of Wight Storytelling festival amongst over projects and we are so pleased to have them here. They will be delivering an exciting, fun and creative experience for your young ones. The best part of this is not only will this be an unforgettable experience but it will also be free, so reserve soon before all the spaces are gone!

 

THERE WILL BE THREE UNIQUE SESSIONS

 

Session 1 (10:30-12): Bats
Local author Jules Marriner will be reading the wonderful story of ‘Vincent and the Vampires’ about a little vampire bat who doesn’t quite fit in with his brothers and sisters. After this you can write your own bat poem inspired by poetry told by Sue the Storyteller and make some flying and colourful bats to take home.

 

Session 2 (12:30-2): Bugs
Listen to some bug stories told by storytellers Sue and Holly before going to hunt for bugs on the grounds of Northwood House. How many different critters will you find? We will then make some bug hotels to take home and some tasty bug-shaped sugar treats.

 

Session 3 (2:30-4): Bogies
Listen to some disgusting and slightly spooky slime and bogey stories, make and decorate a salt-dough snot monster and create a brand new story all about your snotty creation!
