Hi all you parents out there ! I have last weekend voluntered to be part of the excellent team for this Event. I met some lovely people there & i know the kids really got something out of it (i did , big kid). Went to the zoo on the saturday & seen lots of cheeky monkeys & wild beasties ! Was very good & would recomend. They didnt have this stuff when i was given "Big D" 45yrs ago. 😎
 
Glad you had a good time (big kid).🙂
 
Hi Hobie, I was a parent there also! My two boys had a brilliant time they were aged 3 and 7. They loved the zoo and also the disco and treasure hunt. I hope to go to another event soon as they had so much fun!
Do you volunteer at many events? What else do you think two boys would like? I especially liked the support for the parents and kids. Thanks for helping at such an important event for us.
