‘What a Wonderful World’ – 5yrs+ 💭
Come take a walk with Ian and Jo and explore the little things that make up the wonderful world around us. Using stories, puppets, play and our imaginations we will find the answers to earth shattering questions such as…
💩 Why do squirrels always poo in private?
🦋 Where do butterflies go at night?
🪱 And what’s the point of worms if all they do is make us go UGH?!
What a Wonderful World is an interactive storytelling experience for all the family to enjoy!

Times: Bookable 40min sessions at 11am, 12pm, 1pm, 2pm & 3pm

Chocolate Has A Name: A Family Fun Day – 3yrs+ 🍫
We’re thrilled to bring a vibrant, meaningful, and joy-filled day of creativity, culture and climate consciousness to Eureka! with Chocolate Has A Name: A Family Fun Day.
Designed my experienced educators, artists and participatory event planners, this programme offers four dynamic workshops woven together by storytelling, sensory discovery, movement, and the spirit of global connection for children and their grown-ups.
Why now? Each Easter in the UK, over 90 million Easter eggs are enjoyed. Yet few stop to consider the journey of chocolate from bean to bar. This celebration invites children and their grown-ups to connect with the places, spaces, and faces where our most-loved treats begin. Through hands-on activities and heart-opening conversations, families will explore how joy, justice, and the natural world intertwine in every bite.
Dates: Saturday 12th April
Times: 11:30am-4:30pm
