This year the children’s activities are even bigger and better. We’ve moved it just slightly further into the space next to the veggie patch, just off the main yard.
There’s even more to do this year and all of the money that we’ve charged for kids tickets is being spent on the kids. We have workshops so you can have a go at juggling and circus skills, magic, balloon-modelling, face-painting, loads of arts and crafts and some extra big crafts…. along with magic shows, puppet shows and a juggling street theatre show.
We have a singing workshop again for children and a music workshop led by the BBC Radio 2 young folk award nominees ‘The Jaywalkers’. This is for young people that can already play their instruments and gives them a chance to get together with other young ‘folkies’ (and not so ‘folkies’) and make some noise! Last year this workshop culminated in a the group getting up on stage for a performance on the Sunday afternoon.
We must stress that Festival organisers and events leaders cannot take responsibility for the care of children. Parents must be directly and fully responsible for the care of their children at all times during the festival.
