DETAILS:

Come and join us to play with a range of materials that will inspire your little one’s creativity and imagination.

During the session children will be encouraged and supported to make whatever they want with the objects around them. Playing with random objects provides endless possibilities and opportunities to practise problem solving, communication and social skills amongst others. Most importantly your child, and you, will have lots of fun.

Various dinosaur themed events are being held in Rochdale to celebrate the long-awaited arrival of Dippy the Dinosaur.

Dippy - a 21m-long plaster-of-Paris cast of a Diplodocus carnegii skeleton - will be at Number One Riverside in Rochdale town centre between 10 February and 28 June 2020, as part of Dippy on Tour: A Natural History Adventure.

Known to millions from its usual home in the Natural History Museum in London, the 292-bone skeleton will be used in Rochdale as the centrepiece of a display that will highlight local natural history and nature collections.

It is free to see Dippy and visit the Dippy exhibition.

Entry fee: Free
