What's On?
This May half term, and throughout June, families are invited to join the Gruffalo’s Storytime at Twycross Zoo — the first-ever event of its kind in The Gruffalo Discovery Land, brought to you in partnership with Macmillan Children’s Books, publisher of The Gruffalo and The Gruffalo’s Child.
Enjoy a reading of The Gruffalo, joining in with familiar words and phrases, and meet the Gruffalo after the story.
Visit the Gruffalo Discovery Den
Take part in a guided creative activity in The Gruffalo Discovery Den, where little ones can pick up their pencils and explore the Gruffalo stories through craft, with videos from Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler playing alongside.
