A Month of: A Photo a Day

Just one photo for you today: taken from Wednesday 8th July.

At work (the library) we held a Mad Hatter’s Tea Party event for pre-school children to celebrate the 150 year anniversary of the publication of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll.

The event itself went really well and the children who attended loved it and were really sleepy after all the excitement. They loved eating all the different tea party food (we have jam tarts of course). playing pass the parcel, cheating at ‘pin the smile on the cheshire cat’ with one girl stating hilariously innocently as she lifted up the blindfold ‘But I can’t see!”, and other fun, games and music.

Here’s the photo of the decorated table before the mayhem:
