** CALLING ALL BUNNIES! **

Facepainting - Friday 3rd and Saturday 4th April - 12-4pm

Hi Guys! We have Eggcellent news!

Our awesome friend will be joining us over the Easter weekend to paint some faces and celebrate Easter 🙂

They're eggstraordinarily talented, really smart, humble, and all around a good egg!

They'll be charging £3 to cover materials, and we'll use paint to cover faces, with each face painted receiving a free Easter goody bag! All children must be accompanied by an adult, who can be painted too if they like, you're never too old for a bit of colour 😃

Come and join us, we'll be open Friday and Saturday as usual (between 10 and 4) with the face painting taking place from 12 onwards. Hope to see you soon!
