hickenshed is a theatre company that offers a huge range of shows and activities throughout the year, including a magical Christmas production with a cast of hundreds that runs from the end of November until mid-January.


For very young children, their Friday and Saturday morning Tales from the Shed shows are informal and amazingly engaging. Children can join in, make lots of noise, dance, sing to live music and meet lots of colourful puppets.


Chickenshed run Mini-Festival events for this age group called Tales Big Day Out, where families can come together to see large-scale shows and participate in a variety of arts activities and workshops.


Also available are regular weekly workshops called Saturday Shed for children aged 5 – 12 years, and week-long holiday schemes where children can develop their performance skills using Chickenshed’s proven teaching methods and unique performance style – and even be in the shows!

Sleeping and nap time tips


leeping and nap times are really important for both your baby and you! We hope these tips will give you the very best baby snoozes!!


S


• If your baby finds a bath stimulating, bathe them in the morning; if they find it relaxing, include it as part of the bedtime routine.


• Dress your baby for day and night time - make it part of the evening bedtime routine to change clothes, so your baby is prepared for sleep.


• Distinguish between daytime naps and night time sleep by closing curtains at night time and dimly light the bedroom (if at all); daytime naps should be in a light room.


• Time your daytime outings so that longer car journeys coincide with nap times and visits or activities are at livelier times.
