Mini Creatives

Mini Creatives is back at the Warwick Arts Centre on Tuesdays in term time, from 10.30am to 12.00pm. It's a free weekly multi-sensory music session for babies, toddlers and their grown-ups, led by musician Beth Hopkins. The next few dates are Tuesday 3 November, Tuesday 10 November and Tuesday 17 November 2026.

The sessions are built to inspire imaginations, encourage curiosity and support early development, and they're recommended for ages 0-4. Because it's a multi-sensory setup, it's as much about the sounds as it is about the textures and the movement that go with them. If you've got a little one at home, it's one of those things you can just turn up to without much fuss — no booking required, so you can just drop in when it suits you. Under-16s need to be accompanied by a responsible adult, which in practice means you'll be right there with your baby or toddler throughout.

There's a bit more to it than just the weekly music, too. The programme includes a monthly Baby Book Club, run in partnership with Coventry Libraries, so it's a good way to get your child around books as well as music. Between the two, it's a fair bit of activity to keep a small child occupied on a Tuesday morning.

It all happens at the Warwick Arts Centre, University of Warwick, Canley, Coventry, CV4 7AL. The sessions run from 10.30am to 12.00pm on Tuesdays in term time, and they're free, with no booking needed — just drop in.
