Can you help us make our shop spooky for Halloween? We need the scariest and the most ghoulish monsters to add to our Halloween banner, can you draw some for us? The best monster will win a ghostly prize!
We'll have everything you need at our activity table so all you need to bring is your imagination!

Please ensure cards are swapped on a like for like basis and younger kids must be supervised at all times.

Also, between October 19th-26th, you can scare us all with our Scary Story Competition!
Design your own character to star in your scary story! The most spook-tastic story and character will win a ghoulish prize! You can either write a story and charcter at home and then drop it off or you can write it in store over at the kids' activity table - make sure you pop your name and contact details on it for when we announce the winner.
