Workshop for Children – Weird and Whacky
Thursday 14 April 2016
Tatton Park, Knutsford, Cheshire, WA16 6QN
A special opportunity to experience a creative writing workshop with former Cheshire poet laureate, Joy Winkler, with content inspired by Roald Dahl’s stories. About this workshop, Joy says: “Children love to use their imaginations. Roald Dahl fed those imaginations with weird and whacky characters. In this is a creative writing workshop, children will have a chance to create their own eccentric but believable individuals, find out about their lives, problems and come up with wild and amazing solutions. Maybe they will discover a spaceman who gets travel sick or the Cloud Gobbler who has lost his appetite. The possibilities are vast. The power will be in their hands.” Recommended for children aged between 7 and 11 years old. The package also includes a notebook and pen for you to use during the session and take home to continue your writing. This event must be pre-booked.
