Sorry I am posting here for traffic. I am an Early Years teacher in an independent school.

The rest of school are going to the Pantomime. Ours are deemed too young for the travel and all that a trip out entails.

What can we do with ours that would be lovely to cheer them us up?
There will be 15 children aged 2-4. We can't have a party as that is already planned for the week afterwards.
Please help wise Mumsnetters.

Don't mean to sound snippy but I wouldn't be impressed if my 2-4 year old was stuck in front of a Disney film at nursery/school - let alone if I was paying fees!

@thehairyhog
We do plan to have a full on day with lots of fun and activities. Just a short 20 minutes or so at the end, with snacks etc. Not a full length Disney film!

Our sixth form used to do a pantomime to take to local primary schools and old peoples homes.
Maybe you could find a local school/college which would like to do a show for your little ones.

My step mum is a teacher and she recently had a petting farm visit the school with some animals, I think a goat and bunnies, it wasn't too expensive and the kids loved it

@Moonflower12 This is the website:

I don’t know much about it other than it’s on, it seemed to have good reviews last year and the chap used to be a Blue Peter presenter when I was young (a long time ago…!)
