Teddy Bears plan Park take-over at their annual Harpenden picnic!
Harpenden’s children and their bears are cordially invited to join Harpenden Town Council at the Teddy Bears’ Picnic in Rothamsted Park on Wednesday 5th August, 11am – 2pm. This exciting free to attend event is always popular with pre-schoolers and their families and carers, and is organised to coincide with National Play Day – a national celebration of children’s right to play and a campaign to highlight the importance of play in children’s lives.
This year, the event includes the much-loved Teddy Bears’ Hospital, Monkey Music will perform three shows throughout the day, also attending are Fizzy Facepaints, Sandy Art, and Harpenden Library will host Storytime. Little Gym will also be there running activities and a show, plus ABC bouncy castles and soft play are coming along to provide even more fun. Stalls will include Tappy Toes, local theatre Eric Morcambe Centre and local charity Herts Young Homeless.
