October Half Term in Stoke on Trent

It's half term soon, so here is a list of activities in and around Stoke on Trent, to keep you sane and your children occupied!

Kicking off the week, I've found a fireworks display on Sunday 25 October at Newcastle Lyme Valley Parkway, starting at 5:00 pm.  It may be early in the year for fireworks, but it's a good way to start the school holidays!

Potteries Shopping Centre (intu Potteries) are having a week of activites themed around Charlie Brown and Snoopy - in advance of the upcoming film.  There are various family-friendly activities, and they're all free!
Quadrant Road, City Centre, Stoke-on-Trent, ST1 1PS
 
If you want to actually meet Charlie Brown and Snoopy, you'll need to go to Hamleys at the Trafford Centre (intu Trafford), which has a meet and greet for the characters on Thursday 29 October (book in advance, get there early).  All the other daily Charlie Brown activities will be taking place at the Trafford Centre too.

If you'd prefer to stay closer to home, then there's a Superheroes craft activity at the City Central Library in Hanley on Tuesday 27 October, from 11:00-12:00.  Mask-making and stories should make this a great morning!
Bethesda Street, Hanley, Stoke-on-Trent, ST1 3RS

The Emma Bridgewater Factory in Stoke-on-Trent will be hosting a number of events centred around the theme of birds. The highlight of this will be a 'Meet The Owls' event on Wednesday 28 October where visitors can get up close and personal with owls and falcons

Also close to home is a Frozen sing-a-long at the Mitchell Arts Centre on Wednesday 28 October.  It's £2.00 per child, accompanying adults go free.
Broad Street Hanley Stoke-on-Trent, ST1 4HG
 
The Evening Sentinel has their own list of activites - I haven't through checked it, but it's here:
