Would you love to make story time even more fun at home?

Join Cheltenham Festivals for our free, friendly Parent/Carer Book Group, designed especially for parents and carers of children aged 3-6 years.

Meeting once a month, this relaxed and welcoming group is a wonderful opportunity to discover great children's books, share ideas with other families, and build confidence in reading together. At every session, you'll receive a free children's book to keep, along with simple activities and practical tips to help bring stories to life at home.

Whether you're a regular reader or just starting your family's reading journey, everyone is welcome. There's no pressure and no expectations, just a supportive space to connect with others, enjoy books, and inspire a lifelong love of reading.

✨ What to expect:

A free children's book to take home each month

Fun and practical storytelling ideas

Simple activities to enjoy together

Friendly, informal discussions with other parents and carers
