In the crook of a glen, there's a but and a ben and a welcome without end...
Come along for a family session of welcoming stories, songs and crafts with storyteller Beth Cross. The session will be full of unlikely guests, lively tunes and hospitality galore. In the craft session you'll create story pockets to take your version of the story home so you can keep adding your own family storytelling traditions to it as the fancy takes you.
This session is aimed at ages 2-7 but all are welcome.
