Books to Make You Smile

Sunday 25th June 

Join us for a sock-tastic day of fun in the Children’s Library! Make a silly sock puppet, take it on a super story walk adventure, and then borrow a book to make you smile from our themed display!   

You can join us for both the Silly Old Socks craft session (book below) followed by the Story Walk.  Or you can come along for just the Story Walk and bring your favourite toy or puppet with you – no need to book!   

Silly Old Socks 

10:00am, 10:30am, 2:00pm and 2:30pm 

Bring along an odd sock (or take one of ours) and transform it into a funny friend, complete with googly eyes and feathers. Following the session, participants are invited to join us with their sock puppets for an interactive story walk.   Places are £2.50 per child and children must be accompanied by an adult.   


Simon Sock’s Story Walk  

11:00am and 3:00pm 

Come along with us on an interactive story walk as we take Simon Sock on a silly adventure around The Hive! Bring along your Silly Old Sock you made earlier or your favourite cuddly toy and watch out for some surprise guests along the way! Children must be accompanied by an adult.   

The sock story walk is FREE and you don’t need to book!
