Whoosh! Come and join us this half-term for a garden adventure with Room on the Broom. Join us at RHS Garden Hyde Hall this October half term for an adventure with Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler’s Room on the Broom. Lots of different animals want a ride on the witch’s broomstick – can you help her find them hiding around the garden on the special Room on the Broom adventure trail?
 
We also have a variety of activities throughout the half term:

Monday 22 October: Room on the Broom themed activity sheets
Tuesday 23 October: Resident storyteller Mike Dodsworth takes you on a magical garden adventure - sessions throughout the day
Wednesday 24 & Thursday 25 October: Make your own miniature witches broom and hat (£2 payable on arrival)
Friday 26 October: Decorate your own delicious biscuit - first come first served
Saturday 27 & Sunday 28 October: Carve a creepy Halloween pumpkin with your own design. Pumpkin numbers are limited to 100 per day and will be sold on a first come first served basis. £5 per pumpkin, payable on arrival
 
The Room on the Broom adventure trail is based on the bestselling book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, in association with Macmillan Children’s Books.
