CHILDREN will be entertained during the February half-term holiday as a pet store hosts fun workshops.
Pets at Home, which has branches in Weymouth and Dorchester, is offering free interactive My Pet Pals workshops, every day from 11.30am, plus there’s a free bag of wild bird seed with every workshop booking. Workshops will be hosted by pet care advisors and offer fun activities to help children learn how to care for wild birds, hedgehogs and pets including guinea pigs and hamsters. Children will have the chance to take part in interactive games, meet the small furry residents and complete an activity booklet based on what they have learnt. At the end, children will be awarded stickers and a certificate in a goody box.
The workshops last for about half an hour and are aimed at children between 5-11. They will also cover the five key welfare needs including shelter, food, water, good health, appropriate company and the right living environment. Book a place at petsathome.com/petworkshops
