We will be bringing the Under The Love Umbrella story to life by showing children how to create their own paper umbrellas at this arts and crafts workshop.
Under the Love Umbrella is a beautiful new picture-book by Davina Bell and Allison Colpoys, the duo behind the award-winning The Underwater Fancy-Dress Parade. It's a gorgeous, heartfelt book about the transformative power of family love in all its forms.
There will be a story time followed by colouring and crafts. Children will be shown how to design and create paper love umbrellas, and once made, they can choose to take them home or hang them in our children’s section instore!
By pre-booking your place at this craft workshop, your child will be entered into a draw to WIN a free signed copy of Under the Love Umbrella.
The umbrella designs are so simple to create that this is perfect for little ones aged 3-6 years!

As part of our World Book Day celebrations this year, we’ve teamed up with local Bristol hospital charity, Above & Beyond to host an interactive storytelling and creative writing afternoon.
Above & Beyond has launched a very special children’s anthology, Don’t Be Scared to raise funds for Bristol Royal Hospital for Children. With the support of over thirty authors and illustrators, the new book is dedicated to all the children and families cared for in hospital.
This limited edition children’s book is a collection of short stories and poems by some of the best-loved Children’s Laureates of the 20th and 21st centuries including, Jacqueline Wilson, Roald Dahl, Michael Morpurgo, Quentin Blake and Carol Ann Duffy, and all proceeds go to the charity.
In this fun-filled session we will be reading extracts from Don’t Be Scared and encouraging children to write their own stories and poems based around the theme of ‘being brave’.
This event is ideally suited for children aged 8-12yrs.
Tickets: This is a free event. Simply add the required number of tickets to the basket below. Please only book tickets for your child(ren). Please note, no physical tickets will be issued (to save the trees!). Your email confirmation is proof of booking.
