Make Henry Hamster a Happy Home interactive workshop

A fun, interactive workshop where children meet Henry the hamster in need of a new home. Through pair discussions help him choose a cage, bedding, toys and friends and see if he is happy with your choices.

This is a pre recorded presentation led by an experienced educator from Woodgreen. Don’t expect to be sitting down for long though, there’s plenty of opportunity to get moving around and interact with the fun activities. You’ll even have an imaginary hamster sitting on all of your hands by the end!
