Children's Pink Halloween Party

Dolly's is hosting a Children's Pink Halloween Party on Friday 23 October, a pink and sparkly alternative to the scarier side of the holiday. It's aimed at children aged 4 to 10, and they describe it as 'the Dollys way' of doing Halloween.

The session runs for 90 minutes, and the activities are all hands-on. There's making spooky slime, decorating a witches' hat to take home, and stirring up a magical potion mocktail, alongside pink Halloween sparkle and gems, party games and dancing. It's a good mix for that age group — some craft, some treats, and plenty of room to run around.

They're encouraging the kids to turn up in costume, whether that's witches, ghosts, pumpkins or pink Halloween characters. If you've got a little one who loves the holiday but isn't quite into the spooky stuff, this is a way to get them involved without the jump scares.

Places are limited, with around a dozen available, so it's a small group rather than a big hall. It runs from 17:30 at Dolly's, 6 Wilford Road, Ruddington, NG11 6EN, and costs £19.95 per child.
