 In the February half term, PLAYtarium went to see the Lion King at the Lyceum Theatre! Fifty children came for the trip, which included a drama workshop led by two professional actors, and of course the amazing Lion King performance - which thanks to our funding from the Big Lottery, was free! The children really enjoyed the workshop, where they learned how to act like the kind of animals from the Lion King, such as cheetahs, giraffes, warthogs and elephants. The kids loved acting like wild animals! But the highlight of the day was, of course, the Lion King performance. The show was absolutely fantastic, and was an amazing experience for all the kids (and the staff too!). We can only hope that we’ll be able to offer such an amazing trip again in the future.

More activities than ever! Phew, that was one full holiday! The kid’s really enjoyed it, but the staff are exhausted! This February we tried lots of new activities, and brought back some old ones, and the result was a whole heap of fun! We had the Play Rangers in, who did outside cooking with the kids, we went rock climbing, did dance and drama, had media sessions, had drumming lessons, as well as our normal activities like bowling and cinema. We also had more arts and crafts activities, more sports, and a greater variety of toys for the kids to play with. We have a new kitchen set, a reading area, and new games for the PS3, including DJ Hero. But as if this wasn’t enough, we’ll be having even more fun, with even more new activities next holiday! We’d really appreciate feedback on how your children have enjoyed the recent changes to PLAYtarium. Please let us know if you have any comments at all, or any new ideas for activities!
