10:00 am - 4:00 pm
Wednesday 7 August
This year’s theme, ‘Playing on a Shoestring’, focuses on the everyday low-cost or no-cost play adventures that children can enjoy at home, in settings, and in our communities.
At the Dylan Thomas Centre we love creative play, so our activity for National Play Day draws on both Dylan’s sense of fun and his poem ‘The hunchback in the park’, where he writes about ‘the fountain basin where I sailed my ship’.
Looking for some quiet time away from the hustle and bustle of the main play day event? The Dylan Thomas Centre’s free entry ‘Love the Words’ family friendly interactive exhibition is open from 10am – 4.30pm.
Between 10am and 12pm our accessible learning space will be set up with a range of sensory activities and resources.
Then between 1pm and 4pm, join us for drop-in ‘Holiday Memory’ self led activities.
All exhibition staff have received autism awareness and family friendly training and would be delighted to welcome you to our exhibition.
Why not pick up a free creative play pack from our front desk? Our pack features themed sheets and activities for you to make at home.
Free.
